Maleficent 2
 
Really Disney? A sequel to Maleficent?! WHY?! The ending was perfect! No need for a fricken sequel! Ugh! :ohwell:

Yeah, the ending to this movie showed a sequel wasn't necessary unless old Kingy didn't actually die somehow and wants to seek revenge.

I can just imagine Screen Junkies having a field day with ideas for the Honest Trailer of this.

If they don't have Angelina on board, there is no way this won't flop. Their only hope of breaking even (possibly even making profit) is Angelina. Because they sure as hell don't have a good story yet. This is a case of "whythehellnotitis"...

I did not even know what to make of the first one never mind a squeal. Maleficent does not work in my mind as a good guy. Why change the whole story. I could maybe take her as a sympathetic villain but even that is stretching it. Maleficent is a force of nature. I would have enjoyed this more if they had kept Maleficent the way she was portrayed in the animated movie but with the whole story from her perceptive. I just don't know...

I loved Angelina as Maleficent! It was that girl who plays the princess that makes me vomit. The prince kid was pretty nauseating, too.

But Angelina, Sharlto, and the Raven were great.

Maleficent 2: The Sleepening.

I think to keep with tradition, Disney should recast the whole thing and release direct to DVD.

Donatello19 06-15-2015 08:57 PM

I'm actually kind of excited, I really liked Maleficent. I'm very interested in where they're going with all of these live action movies, to be honest.

But where could they possibly go with this? Even though I liked the movie for what it was, I still prefer animated Maleficent. Seriously, though, what story would you come up with for a sequel?

Cure 06-15-2015 11:10 PM

The first Maleficent is garbage.

Leo656 06-15-2015 11:35 PM

I heard it made a few bucks but that the reviews were brutal and few people were really "happy" with it. It was mostly, "She nailed the part, but it's an awful movie". I've only seem bits of it when my wife watches it; my wife likes it, but she's one of those "Someone I like is in it = Good Movie" types. She never quite grasped simple things like, "Yes, Johnny Depp can play a convincing weirdo, but 'Alice In Wonderland' is still a piece of sh*t no matter how Mad his Hatter is." :lol:

No real point to this, anyways. Like who's the audience for a mediocre sequel to a mediocre film that did mediocre business? Unless Angelina had a rider in her contract stating they HAD to do two movies for "Reasons". Otherwise I don't get it.

BubblyShell22 06-16-2015 08:43 AM

I haven't watched the first one yet, but I don't see why they would need a sequel to it. Ugh. This sounds like something they want to make just because it sounds like a good idea even though it isn't.

ranger_scout 06-16-2015 01:38 PM

When I went to see this movie in theaters I thought it was okay to pretty good. Then, I watched it on Blu-ray and I felt the same way. I'm guessing they are making a sequel because Tomorrowland was such a failure while their live-action re-imaginings of fairy tales have been hits. The only reason to look forward to a sequel is to see how the relationship between Aurora and Prince Phillip develops since they did not get married in last year's film.

ranger_scout 04-25-2016 07:02 PM

Disney has officially said that a sequel is in the works.

Angelina Jolie says a lot of things.

ranger_scout 01-08-2018 11:47 AM

The film is going to be directed by Joachim Ronning (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) and filming will take place in London from April to August 2018.

Shark_Blade 01-08-2018 04:34 PM

I thought this was quietly cancelled.

I love the visuals but it's kinda bland that Maleficent is a good guy now. Cruella is next.

I'm all for stories from a villain's perspective, but fvck this retelling of Maleficient.

We'll see how they handle Cruella, but given how Maleficent was done, I'm a little wary.

ranger_scout 04-18-2018 11:16 AM

Ed Skerin of Deadpool is going to play the film's villain.

Michelle Pfieffer is in talks to play a queen in the film.

Filming has begun on the sequel and the full cast has been announced.

Quote:

Sound the, um, horns: Production on Maleficent II has officially begun.

Disney announced Tuesday that filming has started for Maleficent II, almost exactly four years after the original hit theaters. Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning are both reprising their roles, and the new film picks up several years after the original, following Maleficent and Princess Aurora as they “form new alliances and face new adversaries in their struggle to protect the moors and the magical creatures that reside within.”

Michelle Pfeiffer has also officially signed on to the project as Queen Ingrith, while Harris Dickinson will play Prince Phillip. (Phillip was Aurora’s love interest in the original animated Sleeping Beauty.) Chiwetel Ejiofor, Ed Skrein, and Robert Lindsay are also joining the cast, with Sam Riley, Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple, and Lesley Manville returning.

I’m not even a big fan of Maleficent storyline, but I gotta admit the cast is cute.



I have the Hot Toys as well (it’s on discount), she looks cool. Even better if she’s an actual villain like the original tbh.

ranger_scout 07-10-2018 03:39 PM

Disney has scheduled the film for release on May 29, 2020, which is the weekend after Memorial Day. That is exactly when the original film hit theaters back in 2014.

I'd so much more prefer Maleficent 2 just be a proper remake of Disney's Sleeping Beauty as a yet another retelling of the "same" story, make it like 2002 Hero just sequels instead of within the same movie.

ranger_scout 03-06-2019 02:58 PM

The sequel's release date has been moved up to October 18, 2019. Plus, the title has been revealed along with a poster.

So we got sexy pants Maleficent and now we have sleeveless midriff Maleficent?


There's so much going on that once again I have to pull out



Please, Disney, please...just let her be a dark force because she can.

Leo656 05-13-2019 09:36 PM

Can someone PLEASE tie Angelina Jolie down and force her to eat something? PLEASE?!

This is seriously getting ridiculous. Looking at her makes me seriously uncomfortable.

There are at least three different jokes in there. :tlol:

Actually, I count four. Not saying what they are....

I doublechecked, and I still only see 3...?

MsMarvelDuckie 05-19-2019 09:32 PM

Well, there were the obvious ones, and one possibly unintentional one....
