The Little Mermaid 3
 

That's right... 3. Altho the plot isn't really well known what IS known is that this is a prequel to the previous films. It's dubbed as what happened before her adventures...so I guess it's a prequel to the tv series as well.

But...what is extremely important is... WE FINALLY FIND OUT WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO HER MOM!!! WOOT!

Finally Disney has gotten their butts in gear and will show Ariel's mom.

The original cast is of course back (Rob Paulsen as Eric, Cam Clarke as Flounder, Jodi Benson as Ariel, Kenneth Mars as Triton)... but joining the cast is:

Sally Field as Ariel's mom! Dude! :o

Here are 2 previews:

Now the release date is supposadly late 2007/early 2008.

Kill me softly please.

This makes baby [Insert religious deity here] cry tears of blood.



...and makes me want to choke. Disney sequels are bad enough, but now prequels? Heaven help us.

couldn't have said it better myself.

I saw this on Gaia a while ago. :| It looks like Ariel has a very immoral crush on Sebastion.

Even though I HATED The Little Mermaid 2, I do want to see this one!

It sounds decent to me, and the animation looks great!

If Disney is so compelled to make sequels to their classics, they should at least do sequels to ones that don't have an extensive continuity thanks to TV shows and earlier sequels.

I might actually get on board for a Black Chauldren sequel, which is unlikely to ever happen since Disney only *recently* decided to admit the movie ever existed.

Maybe a Sword in the Stone sequel with more squirrel-rape.

The prequel to a series that has'nt ran for nearly ten years?

Yeah. I'm so invested.

And is it me, or was Ariel...turned on by Sebastiabn?

Rob Pausen as Eric? O....k.... Love the guy, but I don't really see him as a prince.

Okay, just braved the teaser...

As much as I like that song (hooray Beetlejuice!) Ariel getting all hot and bothered with Sebastian's performance is really unsettling.

And Cam Clarke is the voice of Flounder? Man, they must pitch his voice up real high; doesn't sound like him at all.

I've never even seen the second one and I'm prefectly okay with that.

um the animation flows so very very well but the dialog is um a bit sexual does anyone else agree?:lol: :|
I also agree with Zarius about Arial and Sabastian lol it's quite funny how she always dissrespected him in all the other movies and shows yet in this she's pretty much in love with him...just a bit odd.
ok and one last thing that ahhhhh ahhh thing Ariel does gives me the chills seriously :|

Oh no.... *facepalms* Not another sequel/prequel. I love Disney, but come on. Do they really need to keep milking classics like this? There are some movies that are best left at the original.

However, I did like the first teaser to this. Maybe it won't be like the second one. I really didn't get into that one all that great. :ohwell: It was kind of stupid.

And yeah, they had to have had Cam's voice jacked up to sound young/kid-like. Like when the Turtles' VAs did for the Toddler eps.

The Little Mermaid... 2 movies, 2 cartoon shows (counting Sebastian's recurring cartoon in Raw Toonage). A third one... well, I do admit that whatever happened to her mom may be interresting.

But otherwise, I'm not a huge Mermaid fan. I like Sebastian and that Seagull, but that's pretty much it.

Now, the one sequal I'm ABSOLUTLEY P****ED Disney never made was a Tarzan in which they discovered he was Lord Greystroke or whatever. They made 2 more movies and a cartoon series. NONE of it did that. That's why I felt Tarzan was so disappointing. Too much Rosie O'Donnel, nothing else.

But, the WORST sequal I have heard of so far is the sequal to Air Bud...

Air Buddies... and the worst part is THEY BLOODY TALK!!!!

Air Bud was a shizz movie to begin with, but make them talk? I am SOOOO sick of these talking dog movies that preschoolers are dumb enough to eat up.

Air Buddies is actually the 6th sequel to Air Bud and the 2nd to feature the puppies. I didn't know they talked... ugh.

Apperantly Air Buddies is considered to be a spin-off and is the first movie in this new series.

The other movies in the series are:
Air Bud: Golden Receiver (1998 ) (football)
Air Bud: World Pup (2000) (soccer)
Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch (2002) (baseball)
Air Bud: Spikes Back (2003) (volleyball)

World Pup was the only one to feature the puppies (who apperantly also play soccer)

In 2008 the next movie in the series is Air Bud: Aussie Rules. This will deal with Australian Football (not Soccer but Football)

Unfortunatly (or is it fortunatly? ) the original dog died after filming the first movie. He died of cancer and was more known for his role as Comet on "Full House"

Speaking of dogs tho... I was actually looking forward to getting "Fox and the Hound 2" till I found out that it's a bloody mid-quel and has absolutly no continuity from the original. When the frak did they ever mention going to a fair in the original?! I have it on tape and I have the comic book adaption. They never mentioned in passing going to a fair! I mean come on! Bambi II made sense because of the missing time between his mom dying and him becoming an adult. But the only missing time in Fox and the Hound is set in winter when the animals were hibernating.

...I thought it was the fact the entire movie was a Genesis album...:lol:

Well aware of his "cinematography"..ugh. I mean, a dog playing sports is dumb enough, but now more TALKING DOGS? In animated form, that would be cute, but really... It's scarey that thee's a market for them.

So, technically, shouldn't that be "Little Mermaid 1/2" or something?

Apparently, yeah. That can happen if you live on the bottom of the sea.

holy shiznit!!!! I had no idea that the sarcastic Rob Paulsen voiced Prince Eric!!! Or that Cam Clarke voiced that cowardly fish. Now I'm going to have to check out my old videos to listen to their performances.

And isn't it interesting that woman who voices Melody, Ariel's daughter, is also the same woman who voices Princess Clara on Comedy Centrals Drawn Together , who happens to be a spoof/rip off of Ariel! :lol:

WTF I thought Christopher Daniel Barnes (Peter Parker/Spider-Man on the 90s cartoon by John Semper) was the original voice of Eric???

. . . . . . . . .

The Tarzan prequl was bad enough. Cute, but bad. Now we have this?! Oh boy... *sighs* There'd better be no "Ursala is Ariel's mom" junk going on, or I'm going to give up all hope in Disney. Even though I think I gave up all hope after the first ****** sequal...
