I just mean I'm pretty sure I heard that Disney basically announced they canned the sequel. I'm not positive, though. That's all I'm saying.

The Incredibles could really work with a sequel. As long as the villins stay fresh or the story stays charming than a sequel could work. Oh, and the ending to the Incredibles was, in my opinion, to show that the superheros were welcomed back into society again.

Hey, Disney pretty much always considers sequels and series when they release movies these days. They just don't always get made. Yes there was going to be a sequel, I forget now if the plot had been released. I've been out of the ABL fandom a long time now.

The only time Disney has made sequels has been in regarding those half assed, cheaply produce craptacular home video sequels of virutally EVERY movie they ever created. Right down to Cinderella, Fox and the Hound, and Little Mermaid.

The ONLY ones i ever enjoyed were Aladdin's sequels and Lion King 2, simply because I LOVE Lion King and that was the first direct video sequel they made before they were pumped out like nerf balls. Toy Story IS getting a sequel tho.

I've heard this a couple times on movie websites, but after buying Pixar, Disney is planning to do another Toy Story sequel and as far as I know, both Tim Allen and Tom Hanks will return to play the voices of Woody and Buzz again.

I'm kinda saddened to hear this simply because that means Slinky dog will have to be recast because his voice actor Jim Varney (R.I.P.) died years ago. I know he wasn't a major character in the film series but I still liked him alot.

Last I heard, the "original version" of the plot was supposed to be about a toy recall on all the Buzz Lightyear dolls because of some kind of defect. As such, Buzz is taken back to Japan where he was made and the toys have to go to Japan to get him back and meet LOTS of weird new toys along the way.

I'm not sure...one of the great things about Pixar films is that they're usually structured more around the emotional journey and developing relationships of a character or group of characters, as opposed to "a bunch of guys having crazy adventures". If you go back and make an unnecessary sequel, you often have to unpick the conclusion of the previous film and cheapen its emotional closure, something that would be quite harmful to something like Finding Nemo or Monsters. Inc, which had quite poignant endings.

A good sequel would find ways to find different emotional issues to explore with the same characters and universe, developing the charcters further, show different sides to them without undermining what you established in the original, something that Toy Story 2 accomplished wonderfully. Could they do it again? Perhaps; the universe and characters of The Incredibles seems diverse enough to make a good sequel, and I think another Toy Story might work, so long as it's one Pixar want to make, not one Disney's finance department want to make. Anything else is pushing it, I think, but hey, maybe Pixar could prove me wrong again...

I REALLY need to sit myself down and watch Toy Story II, I've only heard good things about it but I never took the time to watch it.

It's very good, I liked it as much as the original.
