In the end, though, it didn't amount to much more than a dubious negotiation tactic on Disney's part - when John Lasseter took control of their animation department, their proposed sequel was shelved, and Pixar started work on a fresh one, the results of which we are seeing now.

EDIT: Oh, and I've heard that Michael Keaton's going to be in this, as the voice of Ken (Barbie's male counterpart). I don't know about anyone else, but I simply cannot wait to see that!

Ah, I see.

It's strange that they waited until now to make the sequel, like "Mew" said, but oh well. As long as it's good, people will be happy.
