Why make sequels to movies that had happy endings … and that ENDED!!!!??

Ok this is what makes me very agitated:

Disney has started to make sequels, and even thirds (such as this case) for movies that ended!!!!! With a happy ending!!! Cinderella got her guy, end of story, you don’t have to retell it with the tang line “what if” because we all know what the *beep* is going to happen, she will get the guy AGAIN!!!!!! Why the *beep* would you rune a perfectly great movie with having sequels that, frankly, are not all up to par?

Why doesn’t Disney spend its money and time making sequels (if their creators have no more imagination to come up with new ideas) for films that have room for said sequels!!!!????

Just here me out, they did a sequel to Little Mermaid, didn’t need one, the sequel to the Lion King was just a money maker, it wasn’t necessary, Lady and the Tramp 2 as well as Peter Pan 2 were both cute in their Disney way, but were not necessary!!!!!! We have Mulan 2, Hunchback of Notre Dame 2, and Lilo and Stich 2. There are so many others that I simply cannot name them all. Now look at the movies that Disney could actually justify making sequels to:

The Sword and the Stone, ok this one is a little off the Arthur legend, but for the purpose they have that huge legend to play around with, why no Lancelot or Galahad movies? What about the Knights of the Round Table? Mim isn’t dead; she could be a potential villain, perhaps in Cahoots with Morgan (the “bad character in some of the legends).

Robin Hood, this one may be a bit trickier, but I am sure that there would be a way of playing with it to come out with a halfway good sequel.

And my most irritated suggestion: The Great Mouse Detective!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok so what the hell? The Great Mouse Detective is called the ADVENTURES of the Great Mouse Detective … why the hell hasn’t a sequel been thought up? After all it goes strait off of the Sherlock Holms stores!!!!! There are thousands of story lines to choose from!!!!! But no, instead we need a sequel to the Fox and the Hound.

I just don’t understand why Disney continues to produce sequels to stories that ended … period; they had happy endings and no loose ends. I don’t get how there are some Disney movies (the ones mentioned above) that had loose ends that Disney isn’t even touching or considering making sequels for but the ones that are done they keep digging up and re directing them … grrrrrrr!!!!

Does anyone agree or am I just being too nit picky of a children’s franchise? Also, why isn’t Disney creating new movies? I would really like to see a Disney version of Beowulf, or Sir Gawain … in the old-fashioned Disney animation way, pixar and all the new hi tech animation is cool and all but I like the way that the “old school” animation looks.

So what do you all think?
