captain_slinkyTime for another killing spree; I just saw the ad for Bambi 2. And it features the voice of Patrick Stewart.
I'm not really mad at the Disney Company for this because they're just following the money. It's not as if they would just throw money at a blatantly awful and blesphemous project that no one in their right mind would ever buy. Quite the contrary! I'm sure they had focus groups, marketing departments, independent survey takers and all sorts of other market data that showed not only would a sequel to Bambi be a good idea, but there were enough people out there who would buy it at $20 a pop to make it cost-effective to go ahead with the project!
That means there's a good sized chunk of the populace (in those Red States I'll betcha) that saw Bambi and said "Wait, I'm confused! There are so many unanswered questions! Such a complex story line... I need MORE!"
And THAT is why I'm going on my killing spree. SOMEONE'S gotta thin out this herd, dag-nabbit!
