[quote="Syera"][quote="Hourglass"]I do not enjoy sequels in the least.  I'll be the first to admit.  I like original stories, but I find that sequels seem to demean all of them.  Take Aladdin (just for an example)... ROJ was horrible.  Not only in plotline (cliche:  bad guy returns, tries to take over the palace/country/blah blah blah) but so was the animation and script.  I'll admit KOT was alright, but it still was not the original in any aspect.

The Little Mermaid is another example.  I'm sorry, but the sequel just seemed so... so... childish.  I know we're talking about Disney movies here, but still... that wanted to make me go into a diabetic fit.  It was pathetic, and should not have been made.

I hate when sequels center around the originals' main character's children.  Hello!!  We fell lin love with certain characters, bring them back!  Not their demon spawns who are always remarkable just like them... and a perfect mixture of both their mother and father.  It's pathetic, and just like in fanfiction, I do not like it.[/quote]

*Nods*  Exactly!  And what's worse, it seems that rather than try to make a sequel that will appeal to everyone, they take out whatever charm it had for the adults and toss together some kind of sludge that is aimed for no-one over the age of ten.

'Course, maybe it's because parents have to sit through a theater release along with their children, but with DTV releases, all the parents have to do is buy the video and let the kids watch it while they do something else, so the creators don't put in the effort to make it digestible for the adults as well.[/quote]
