filmmusic 1,827 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Just watched the Monsters U trailer..... Not impressed! In fact it looks like the least interesting Pixar film yet. If the first film never existed and this was the introduction these characters it would never get made.... It just looks and feels like such a cash in movie. Bummer.i agree!

Max 141 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Pixar's The Good Dinosaur has been moved to 2015 and Finding Dory has been moved to 2016.http://www.slashfilm.com/pixar-skips-2014-as-the-good-dinosaur-shifts-to-2015-and-finding-dory-to-2016/I wonder how well The Good Dinosaur, an original film, will do in 2015 with competition from so many established franchises.

Jay 37,355 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Pixar already has an original film coming out in the summer of 2015 - Inside Out. I made a post on the board here somewhere about how it's the only original movie coming out in a franchise-filled summer.Found ithttp://www.jwfan.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=23422&p=923295 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max 141 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I should've phrased that as "another original film." Whoops!Inside Out is the upcoming Pixar film I'm most excited about (and one of the 2015 films I'm most excited about, too), but it's still a bummer that we'll have to wait even longer to watch The Good Dinosaur. Kudos to Pixar for delaying the film to get it right, though.As for Finding Dory, I thought a 2015 release date was pretty early. It sounded like they only started production about a year ago (http://articles.latimes.com/2012/sep/08/entertainment/la-et-mn-john-carter-director-20120908/2), and a Pixar film usually takes longer than just 3 years. I'm glad they aren't rushing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad'Dib 1,802 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 The Good Dinosaur was delayed because the Bob Peterson, the director, was fired. I don't think a replacement has been announced yet. But I imagine that's why it has been delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the characters and situations are interesting and the story follows naturally from earlier installments, they can be magic and a terrific use of the medium. The trouble often arises when certain financial imperatives come into play, particularly in Hollywood...Pixar's been hit-and-miss with that, but I think there's huge potential for a new Incredibles.

The Apu trilogy? The Human Condition?I'm not discounting Sturgeon's law here. I'm aware that there are hundreds of shitty sequels for every good one and I'm not saying Incredibles 2 is bound to join the above films, but is it really unreasonable to hope that the company that made two wonderful, compelling Toy Story sequels could produce something of quality from a film that actually introduced the idea of a continuing story in its ending?

publicist 4,643 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Well, let me just say that if i had the power to ban sequels for the next 5 years i would do it and i would give a shit if that would kill a potential INCREDIBLES sequel. As it is, you will get your wish and i am sure that it will proudly stand alongside MONSTERS UNIVERSITY and CARS 4 or whatever junk they have in production right now.

mrbellamy 6,286 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I would probably take that deal, too.
