Movie Sequels For Your Inner Kid

      I just Googled Toy Story 4, and apparently its release date is in 2017. Finding Nemo has a sequel due for 2016. Unfortunately I don't think Tangled will have a sequel; for one very simple reason - the things Eugene says at the end. "Beloved by all, she ruled the kingdom," which implies she took the throne after her parents. "We're living happily ever after" - Shrek is the ONLY movie series I know that got sequels, despite this being said in the first.
      But, for your undying inner kid that only grows as you start to shrink; Tinker Bell also has another sequel scheduled for release in 2015. And I'm really not fond of them using the name Nyx for a new character. It's bad enough P.C. Cast ripped off Greek mythology; but we don't need someone else to do the same. I mean, she transformed a mythological horse into a modern human woman who goes by the same name. I was kind of hoping she would have been as imaginative and fun as she was with her Partholon books, but no such luck.
      Well, I just hope all these sequels can amount to all the good things that came first. Yes, yes, all the good things. I'm a friggin child living inside a grown woman's body. Except I'm not grown, you know, height-wise.
      I'm going to go whip me up some hot dogs. Maybe then I'll watch some movies. Not the ones I own, though; I've seen those too many times. Maybe I'll watch some of this "inner kid" stuff. What else would I do - go skating with my boyfriend and his wife? Maybe swathe myself in pink fur and not much else, then spend half of my millions? Or perhaps take to the air in my own private jet.
      Then it's settled. Kiddie movies it is.

  1. I can hardly wait for Toy Story 4, and I've been waiting for a sequel to Finding Nemo since I saw the movie . . . a bunch of other underwater animateds came out after Nemo, like Shark Tale, but you could tell they were just trying to ride Nemo's famous tail on that.

    Personally, I want to see Ice Age 5 now, and it NEEDS to have the comet! Supposedly a comet caused the ice age and killed the dinosaurs, but they never talk about that, although they live in the ice age WITH dinosaurs - they've talked about the ice age, the meltdown, the dinos, and continental drift, but they're missing one last piece of the puzzle . . . the comet :D

    1. Wow! I didn't know they were making a fifth...My inner kid thinks that's awesome. :) Well, in the third movie Ellie was pregnant - in the fourth her daughter's a teenager. Suppose by the fifth film, she's a grandma?
