Guest Ravenbomb Posted March 5, 2002 Report Posted March 5, 2002 When Disney made the Kid, I could handle it. When they made Dinosour, I didn't even watch it, but I heard it was bad. I forgave them for 102 Dalmations and for the Big Green and the Princess Diaries. Recess: Schools out was awful, but I could forgive that, seeing as how they were cashing in on a semi-successful TV show. Doug's first movie almost did them in for me, especially since they called it his FIRST movie, like they were threatening to make more. Luckily they made Remember the Titans, so I could ignore Doug. But now they've done it. They are making...a CINDERELLA II! I have now officially lost ALL respect for Disney. Walt must be spinning in his grave for what those idiots have done to his company. Does anyone else hate Disney?
Guest starvenger Posted March 5, 2002 Report Posted March 5, 2002 Reasons why I hate/dislike Disney (some more indirect than others): - ABC hired John Madden - Had Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne, yet has managed to have a shitty hockey team for 10 years - Owns a team named after an Emlio Estevez movie - Iceland? A hockey power? Gimmie a fucking break - Nearly forced TSN to change it's name to ESPN Canada - making OAV sequels for their animated movies - Saturday morning cartoons based on movies - Jonathan Taylor Thomas There's probably more, I just can't think of it right now...
Guest Youth N Asia Posted March 5, 2002 Report Posted March 5, 2002 You forgave them for "The Big Green"?...wow, you are quite the forgiving person, my friend... My real hate for Disney is their straight to video sequals with bad animation. The 2nd and 3rd Aladian movies looked no better then Saturday morning cartoons...the animation was not up to Disney's level....and that goes for all of their animation cartoon sequals.
Guest What?! Posted March 6, 2002 Report Posted March 6, 2002 I'm almost afraid to ask, but what's "The Big Green"?
Guest HANSgerman Posted March 6, 2002 Report Posted March 6, 2002 Big Green is a stupid soccer movie. Did Disney do the Sandlot or was that someone else?
Guest Choken One Posted March 6, 2002 Report Posted March 6, 2002 No Sandlot kicked Ass, so Disney never touched it. Ever since 1995, when Pixar came out and Dreamworks came out in 1997...Disney has lost it's hold on Animation and became Empire of Shitty DTV movies.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted March 6, 2002 Report Posted March 6, 2002 Ah but to be fair when they do DVD righ they do DVD RIGHT. Take one look at the Fantasia box set, or the new 2 disc Snow White and Tron collections. One good thing about Disney, and this is thanks to Walt, they keep records and stuff dealing with all thir projects it seems.
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Posted March 6, 2002 Report Posted March 6, 2002 Wasn't there a st8-to-home release of The Lion King?
Guest teke184 Posted March 7, 2002 Report Posted March 7, 2002 Disney's done straight-to-video sequels of: Aladdin (2 of them) Little Mermaid Lion King Beauty and the Beast Cinderella Lady and the Tramp Hunchback of Notre Dame And just about every other major animated film they've ever had. A curious sidenote to this is that there is at least one animated feature that was intended to be a straight-to-video release. However, Disney brass viewed the film and figured it was good enough for a commercial release. That was a good move as that film, Toy Story 2, made about $200+ million at the box office.
Guest jedisrm Posted March 7, 2002 Report Posted March 7, 2002 the kid was crap and the ideas to make disney cartoon sequeals is dumb
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted March 7, 2002 Report Posted March 7, 2002 Disney was ok in the late 80s, early 90s. But really they haven't been the same since Walt died.

Toy Story 2 was only in it's early stages when the decision was made to go from direct to video to theatrical release. At least the last year and a half to two years of work done on the movie was done knowing it was a theatrical film. It's not like the movie was in the can and Eisner said, ""Let's put this in theaters." BTW, I thought Toy Story 2 was the best film of 1999.
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Posted March 8, 2002 Report Posted March 8, 2002 Didn't Disney also make a straight-to-video animated movie of Titanic?
Guest Anorak Posted March 8, 2002 Report Posted March 8, 2002 Probably. That's another Disney film i never want to see.
Guest Choken One Posted March 8, 2002 Report Posted March 8, 2002 No. Fox&Paramount produced Titanic.
Guest MDH257 Posted March 10, 2002 Report Posted March 10, 2002 Didn't Disney also make a straight-to-video animated movie of Titanic? It was a SNL/TV Funhouse parody.
