Ooh! A plot to kill all the toys at Halloween!

Tasty!

I don't object to the sequels generally, as it won't be the first time that a sequel has been made without the original creative team. It is just a shame that it won't be the same people. Having said that, they could be breathing fresh new life into the franchise. Pixar can't make Toy Story films forever, and if Disney wants to continue making sequels - so be it!

Anyways, I think the most exciting part of this story is that Disney is "in the process of setting up a digital animation facility". I'm sure they already did that once, but doing it again won't hurt.

Let's face it, Disney doesn't really care about these films, and the only reason they are making TS3 + TS4 is because dreamworks is making Shrek 3 and Shrek 4. I think this deciison will not only be bad for Disney but I also think Dreamworks are making a big mistake!

now they are adding Bambi II to the list and a Toy Story 3 and 4.

this is a bad idea,
Speaking of cheapquels, wasn't there supposed to be a Dumbo 2? What happened to it? (Not that I really care, because I'm sure it will be horrible compared to the classic.)

Luke, Jack, Renata...perhaps it was coincidence but Jurassic Park was on last night on USA. First time I saw it in years, and I gotta tell you, it frightened me more this time than last. :lol:

i think it is 'On Hold' because they want to release it around the same time as the Dumbo Special Edition DVD, which ultimatedisney.com predicts sometime 2005.

i heard somewhere that it Dumbo II wasn't what they ecpected and so it might be cancelled, i could be wrong.

Unless Disney can somehow work out a deal allowing them to present the Pixar films again, then they should kill this idea completely. disney has had very little success doing sequels mainly because the animation is sub-par and the storylines are stale at best (with IMO Lion King 1 1/2 as an exception).

I like the idea of a continued storyline of Toy Story but maybe as a 1/2 hour show instead of movies.

agreed, i also liked Lion King 1 1/2.

Lion King is obviouslt the best, but lion king 1 1/2 and Lion King 2 are equally good, i liked Lion King 1 1/2

That would be nice. Unfortunately, we don't live in this mythical Land of make-believe where Disney's sequels are all as good as the originals.

Well, Tim Allen's up for it!

And yes. TS3 can still be a good film. It can even be an exceptional film. Or it could just suck. But wait and see people!

They are not little balck dots. there are two lines which shape the bottom of the nose, they curve around to make the shape of the mostrils! Do you need glasses. And anyway, Disney 2D animated characters hardly ever have much of a nose when you see them from front on!

Save Buz & Woody!

No Toy Story 3 please, please, please!

Even if Pixar did it, there would be no where to go.

Put them in the vault and throw away the key :wink:

I could not agree more as the saying goes to much of a good thing is bad. And both movies are great and have a huge following but people can get tired to much can ruin what made it sepcial to begin with it. ( I think of it like Drams take that show 7th hevae it was great when it statred now its just like ummmmmmm Okay ) this sort of sucks

I disagree. Being a toy and carrying on a secret life leaves you open for plenty of adventures. Any which involve a grown-up Andy parting ways with the toys do not sound good.

But I have no doubt that Pixar could make a great <i>Toy Story 3</i> worth seeing.
