Mary Poppins 2
Looks like Disney's making a sequel to Mary Poppins. This is set some 20 years after the original movie and will be adapting the rest of the books in the series. Apparantly there's 8 books in all that were released from 1934 - 1988!

Dammit Disney not every classic movie needs a ****** cash grabbing sequel. Leave Mary Poppins alone.

I read all 8 books. Spoiler alert: Mary Poppins was really kind of a b!tch at times. Very stern. Nowhere near as sweet and bubbly as Julie Andrews.
Also, Disney, WTF.

Aren't the many remake and reboot films the problem today, not sequels?

I don't see why any of them are problems.

Guy. It's been way more than 20 years since that movie came out.

It's been way more than 20 years, though. Pretty sure the original was released in 1964, making it 51 years later. A cameo, maybe...reprising their original roles, I doubt it. Also...why would they bother with a sequel now? Why not 40 years ago? Even 30 years ago would've been ok.

The original film is based on parts from the first two books anyhow, so it wasn't even a straight transfer to screen. But I do have to wonder... how could a new version live up to the original?

Rob Marshall says that this movie is not a remake of the original film but an "extension".

A bit late. Don't you think, Disney? You could have made several movies with Julie Andrews back in the day.

Emily Blunt is in talks to play Mary Poppins. I have no problem if this happens. She's a brilliant actress and singer. However, I just this film does not turn out to be a disappointment.
