Some people really praise B&TB's music, which *is* great, but I think I personally enjoy and prefer LM's more. Plus I've always been an aquatic-lover anyway...and Flotsam and Jetsam rock! :-D

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy *Phew*, we can agree here too, Blazes!

Some live action movies can have sequels, but when it comes to Disney movies, it's just a different thing. They have the Disney magic that no other films do---so yes, please, don't mess with the magic.
Originally Posted By BlazesOfFire I think the only worthy animated sequel was Toy Story 2, but please no Toy Story 3! Stop while youre ahead with that! I did not know Mary Costa said that - Good for her! There are only a few classics they have not made sequels too yet and I hope they never do: Sleeping Beauty, Pinocchio, Snow White, Alice in Wonderland, nd seriously those are the only ones I can think of off the top of myhead right now (though i am sure there are more...right??!)

Originally Posted By BlazesOfFire Oh yea, forgot about The Rescuers. I did enjoy The Rescuers Down Under too.
