Haha I feel like a total outcast.

Am I the only person here who actually enjoyed Mulan 2?! :lol:

I plan on buying it soon..along with The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride, The Lion King 1 1/2, and perhaps the Aladdin sequels.

Mulan two was one of the first sequels I ever saw, and it left me with a bad impression of DTV sequels.

My first and only non Pooh sequel is Tarzan II. I think it is the worst movie ever and it is not even worthy to be under the Disney movie. I will be getting Lion King 1/2 and a few others such as Toy Story 2.
Wants Muppet Babies on DVD!!
Hopefully if Duckales and Rescue Rangers sell well we will get it!! Don't forget Gummi Bears!

Right. The only sequel I found was REALLY REALLY good was Toy Story 2. Do you people consider toy Story 2 cheapquel and was it direct to video?

Toy Story 2 had a theatrical release.

I've got Mulan 2 on my wishlist and I actually enjoyed it. I loved the ending.

The only ones I have are the Aladdin ones on VHS. I may replace them on DVD, haven't decided yet. I usually don't buy the sequels though.

Sequels

Post by creid »

I have three Cheapquels. Both Alladins & The Lion King II...Not bad but they were cheap. I have seen a few on the Disney's channels and find most of a very lame. (I am unusal because I absolutely hated Lion King 1 & 1/2. The funny thing about it was it made me appreciate the Simpsons line form the Itchy & Stractchy movie "40% new animation. I go the percentage wrong but loved the idea.)

Otherwise, I buy sequels with the following guidelines:
1) The sequel is worth buying - Toy Story II (which was started as a cheapquel and Pixar stuff was too good.) I did buy the set on this one in 2000.
2) It is included in a reasonably priced boxed set where the sequels are an economic cost of $5 or so. ex. the Son Of Kong/Mighty Joe Young.
3) It only comes in a complete set with the sequels - The Universal Legacy Monster series.
4) It is a series of 3 or more and the last one was cheap enough to buy - The Naked Gun series.
