The Sequel

Did you ever wonder what happened to Pocahontas after the movie? Did you care about the fate of The Little Mermaid after she moved out of the sea? Well, I didn't either. Not until I discovered that we had The Disney Channel, home of the Dodgy Sequel.

who'd a thunk it?

Yes, Ariel is a bored housewife and Pocahontas became the Secretary-General of the United Nations.

Coming Soon: Pinocchio Returns. After finally becoming a real boy, Pinocchio is still not satisified with his appearance and becomes addicted to plastic surgery. Poverty-stricken and barely recognisable, he sells his story "I Had Improper Relations With Geppetto... And The Little Cat Too" to the tabloids.

And also: The Lion King III - Lion In The Big City. Bored with being King of the Jungle, Simba travels to America in search of fame, fortune and young hot lion lady ass. Voiced by Eddie Murphy.

They've actually made a Peter Pan II, for release in the cinemas, featuring Wendy's daughter becoming a Lost Boy...

But then, Toy Story 2 (technically Disney, even if it is Pixar) was better than the first one. Still, I guess that's why it didn't go straight to video.

Practically all the Disney movies have dodgey shows of their own. Lion King was a good movie. The sequel was disappointing, and watching the Timon and Pumbaa series just really ruined it for me.

They've also made Cinderella II. Dodgy, indeed.

AND THEN, Pokyhantas gets smallpox and dies. But it's O-KAY because she ends up on a coin!

Dumbo II: The new Ears?

7 · Adam said:

And let's not even mention the totally shite Winnie the Pooh animated series. . .

8 · Graham said:

Arrrgh! I was channel flipping and saw that Winnie The Pooh thing all of five minutes ago. Storpeet!

9 · Dee said:

Even seen the sequel to one of Jane Austen's works, which features exciting things like pirates, and the heroine becoming a lesbian?

I kid you not. I can't remember if it's a sequel to Emma or Pride and Prejudice.

Really, Shauna, you crack me up so much. Must stop laughing at the screen so much.

Mmm, icecream.

We ain't got cable or satellite or digital in our house. We have to make our own entertainment. Fortunately, there's Channel 5: the crap satellite channel for those who can't afford satellite.

(I also hope we're allowed to do links in here. I'm sure I've seen them before.)

Whenever a movie is semi-popular they always try and make a quick profity by making a Sequel.

14 · Marybeth said:

Not true! What of Pretty Woman?

15 · Graham said:

Wasn't that what Runaway Bride was? :P

Under da sea,
Under da sea,
Get caught in a net-a,
Cooked in a fry-a,
Under da sea.


Mmmmm... crabsticks.

17 · Marybeth said:

Noooo, Runaway Bride was crap. Big difference.

18 · melissa said:

one sequel i certainly wouldn't mind seeing would be from monsters.inc.

19 · Jessica said:

Wow. Hi. I found this through the Bloggies... quite interesting. However much I would love to tell just how sick I am of watching cartoons, I am going to head to bed, cause here in my part of the States it's 1 a.m. and I'm about to drop. :~)

20 · Fran said:

I've never seen it, but I whole-heartedly approve of LM2: Return to the Sea (see how I make it look cool? yeah...) Only because when it was released, the Disney stores filled with Ariel merchandise for which I am an utter whore. Oh yes.

21 · clementine said:

actually, i think there *was* a pretty woman 2. but it didn't have julia roberts or richard gere in it, and (surprise, surprise) went straight to video. and now even most self-respecting video stores won't stock it, because uhm.... well, it blows. it's a sequel!

22 · safaia said:

I could go for some young hot lion lady ass... ^.^

23 · Amy said:
