Man,that would have caused a lot of uproar for parents and to mention accusations that are left unsaid.

Various abandoned projects:

• The Hero from Otherwhere
• Chanticleer
• Huck’s Landing
• The Abandoned

I'd like to know what happened with The Abandoned. The only guess I have is that they've done quite a few "change into an animal" stories already.

There was an African feature planned at WDAS called The Song of Sundiata.

Awesome!!!

I can just feel the urge to say "I'm Black and I'm Proud".

Its too bad it wasn't made it would have attracted a lot of people who were Afrocentric to it.

Completely off-topic, but you just reminded me that there are black people who visit this site too. In the "post a picture of yourself" thread, everyone seems to be white (odd ...) so I've formed a strange mental image in which DVDizzy is visited only by white Americans.

This may sound naive, but I kind of wish I could form a friendship with a black person one day. In my country you can see quite a lot of African illegal immigrants now in public places. I wish to talk to some of them, but I feel shy. After all, you don't just go up to a person you don't know and say "Hi. Let's talk!" Especially when that person is on their way to somewhere else.

So ... back to Disney's abandoned projects.

DisneyToon Studios was planning a sequel to Pinocchio!

They also had a Wizard of Oz-related project in the works.

I thank GOD, that never happened.

What the hell would it even have been about? He was a boy. The END.

These artists must have gone to work everyday feeling absolutely sick to their stomachs about what they were doing, knowing they had a family to feed.

Absolutely horrible.

While I recall a rumor in 2003 about a CG remake of Pinocchio, I never knew they were planning a DTV sequel.

And considering that they were planning CG sequels to hand-drawn features (like The Aristocats 2), it's entirely possible that the Pinocchio sequel was also planned as a CG project.

The Belgian studio Belvision did a sequel to Pinocchio called Pinocchio in Outer Space (no, I'm not joking). They had him turn back into a wooden boy by saying he started being a horrible boy after a while.

Again, I am not joking.

You, me, and everyone single member on this forum, bub.

Don't forget Filmation's Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night, another animated sequel to Pinocchio's story.

Before The Princess and the Frog, there was a project at WDAS called The Frog Prince developed by Eric Goldberg and his wife Susan. You can read more about it here and here.

Would it be wrong if I said that I'm glad we didn't get that? The whole 'red carpet' talk sounds a bit too Shrek-ish to me.

Agree. It has that Fairy Tale Shrek-ish twist that was so hip during the 00's.

DisneyToon Studios had a project in development called Space Mountain. The only information available about that project is that the story was by Jason Belleville and the art director was Alan Bodner.

Mickey in Space was another cancelled project that was to be produced by DisneyToon Studios around 2004-2005. It was based on an original idea by director Elliot M. Bour (aka Saul Blinkoff) and a screenplay by Jason Belleville. David Benullo served as a co-writer on the project.

I've found a clip from the story reel. You can watch the video here or here.
