Originally Posted By DlandDug I agree that a sequel is a natural. Perhaps the evil queen has left something behind, either in Andalasia or New York, requiring the various characters to find it and save the day. Cameos next time around could include both Ilene Woods and Mary Costa. I'd like to see that! (The field reporter in Enchanted is named Mary Ilene Caselotti, incidently.)

Originally Posted By JeffG I've heard the talk about Disney hoping to make it into a franchise, but I really hope they resist the temptation.

The obvious problem is that there really isn't much you can do after "And they lived happily ever after" without it seeming essentially extraneous. -Jeff

On the one hand, a sequel would be most welcome--but only IF it is done correctly. And it's anybody's guess as to what is truly 'correct', here. ORWEN: A few years back there was a TV series called 'The Charmings'. I liked that. It was about the ongoing life of Snow White and her prince. The wicked queen was even part of the show and they were all transported to the 'real world' and got to interact with modern people in modern situations. It seemed to work, so, if Disney went in THAT direction with ENCHANTED it might be a success. ORDDU: We'll just have to wait and see.
Originally Posted By jdub When I started reading the discussions of "Enchanted" on LP, and thinking about the movie (which I've seen), I did suddenly, finally, come by the realization that it is essentially that--"The Charmings." A show I'd love to see on DVD, by the way! I remember the evil mother-in-law's incantation to this day: "Bubble, bubble, boil & trouble; Wilma, Fred, & Barney Rubble!" Anyhow, I honestly hope the characters from this movie can indeed live happily ever after--with no sequels to get in the way. Create, people--CREATE! Something wonderful in this movie was the sight of classic-style animation after all of these dry years, and the promise that the current team is capable of doing something great with the genre! So let's see lots of new and amazing things, like we did once upon a time.

That's why it makes a coven of witches nervous to think of how easy it would be to ruin the origial beauty of ENCHANTED if not careful. Of course it's out of our control. Disney will do as they please.
