Guys, for the past few years, if there's one thing we know about Disney, it's that they LOVE franchising, even if they have no chance at being successful commercially and/or critically. From now on, I say that if there's a Disney movie out there (unless it's Pixar; Toy Story is the only franchise that, I think, they made to date), expect a sequel. I mean, look at all the Disney franchises out there in which they expanded on the stories in order to increase sales:

The Lion King
Peter Pan
Pirates of the Caribbean (I LOVE this franchise, though; don't get me wrong!)
The Emperor's New Groove
The Fox and the Hound
Bambi
Beauty and the Beast
Mulan
Aladdin (I really like these movies, too. ^_^ )
Brother Bear (It's interesting to note that Disney considered the first movie a failure financially, but they went with making a sequel for it anyway.)
The Little Mermaid
And most likely more that I forgot to mention/to come...

Really, this should come as no surprise to us. Disney has become more and more predictable with its franchising that we should be able to see future sequels coming from a few miles away!

What happened to the good ol days? Disney used to be awesome. But ever since old Walter kicked the bucket... :(

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

I've known they make lots of sequels and stuff... but I wouldn't mind if, you know, they're good.

Like Fox and the Hound II? Oh dear god, it's upbeat and totally not depressing.

The lead actors are usually worse than the support actors, especially on Zack and Cody. The twins suck, they overexaggerate everything.

Disney sucks, they can't make anyhting good anymore. The old drawer of tapes I have are all but a memory. They dont make stuff like that anymore. Now they make crap.

AND SINCE WHEN IN BLODDY HELL DID THEY COME OUT WITH A FOX AND THE HOUND SEQUEL?!

I didnt know that! Did they botch that franchise too?! I actually liked the first one alot!!!! :'( :'(

It's kind of a bit extreme when it's been dubbed The Fox and the Hound II when it's actually more or less a midquel. ::)

But I also really liked the first one. You know, what I hardly get is that just about one of the VERY FEW Disney-based franchises that's worth continuing is Kingdom Hearts, but do we see a movie for it made yet? No. Of course, Square Enix needs a say in it before development would begin, but still... The whole thing's quite ironic.

We need a Kingdom Hearts anime. Forget a movie.

NO! Don't! Let! Disney! Do! The anime! They will make it all kiddy and take out all the violence and everything. Have them show it on a different channel...

They would work with 4Kids.  And who would want that?

what he said, must not let Disney ruin, XD

I wouldn't mind if Viz, or FUNimation did the anime.  But for the love of God, not 4Kids.
