Pour le "sequel or not sequel", je pars sur mes trois Disney préférés : La Belle et la Bête (tu peux partir sur le 2e film uniquement ou le 2e et le 3e, comme tu le sens !), La Petite Sirène (idem) et Le Bossu de Notre Dame (sorry not sorry :P)
Merci Cali, c'est parti !!
Beauty and the Beast
The sequel(s) was/were better than the first movie! | Good sequel(s) | They were okay | MEH | Good potential but they messed it up | They were so unnecessary | BURN THEM
This movie is wonderful on its own, it didn't need any sequel! A small expanded universe maybe, but instead of making some cute and interesting short movies or short novels, they made these 1-hour tortures!! I didn't watch the 3rd movie, thankfully, I let some critics suffer in my place (lmao), and the few I've seen made my skin crawl. Thanks for making Belle show Stockholm syndrome signs, I hate it!!!
The Little Mermaid

LM 2: showing how Ariel is adapting after leaving for a very different world would have been interesting to follow, but they chose to make Melody pull an Ariel (even if she had a better reason to be fascinated by the sea!). And even if you keep the movie until Melody runs from home, I think it would have been more interesting to redeem Morgana with her and Melody bounding, Morgana realizing that she doesn't need her mother's approval anymore and moving on. Melody had good potential as a heroine, but they made her too similar to Ariel or took the spotlight away from her with silly sidekicks.
LM 3: I liked seeing more of Ariel's sisters, a shame the settling is so lame! Like seriously, why make Triton even worse than what he was in the first movie?! And the whole plot makes Ariel seems like a moody teenager who only is interested in what her father forbids, NO! And the title "Ariel's beginning", beginning of what? She doesn't care that much for music in the first movie, it's also making her versatile and spoiled! The French title "Ariel's secret" is worse! XD I wished to see how and why Ariel became so passionate about the human world!
The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
(you little gremlin!!! XD )

(takes a deep breath in) Why? Just why would they do that?! Stop the massacre!!
While a sequel wasn't needed or mandatory for the characters' development, there could have been some topics or subjects to bring up! There were characters in the novel that didn't make it in the first movie, they could have worked on something with them! Even take some inspiration from Victor Hugo's other novels if needed, without making a too weird fusion of course! And you know what's worst? There are still some things here and there in what they produced that could make at least a decent sequel, and they still served us a huge shit!
