Turns out that tip I reported was correct after all.
Allanah Faherty confirmed the rumor yesterday on Movie Pilot:
Pixar President, Jim Morris has revealed that after the release of the last sequel on the current slate, The Incredibles 2 in June 2019, the studio will release four original films.
“Everything after Toy Story and The Incredibles is an original right now,” he said. At the moment there are two untitled original films scheduled to be released in March and June 2020, and a further two are in early development, and look “highly likely” to join the studio’s schedule soon.
This is interesting news for a few big reasons. The most obvious one is that this addresses the “sequel-fatigue” many of us have been experiencing with the studio since Cars 2, as well as the doubts people have been having about Pixar’s quality in comparison to Walt Disney Animation Studios’ recent wave of huge success.
But the other big reason we should consider is how this will reflect on Pixar’s massive hit, Finding Dory, which is of course a sequel. The film has been a box office juggernaut in the U.S. (it will soon dethrone Captain America: Civil War as the biggest domestic hit of 2016), and the movie has also enjoyed steadily positive praise from critics.
In other words, this news implies what a lot of us have always suspected about Pixar as a business. Their decisions on which movies to release are not solely driven by short-term numbers and cash grabs. It seems they’re more interested in telling the stories they want to tell.
Note: the top image is a reference to Pixar’s next original film, Coco, which will release next year.
I like the sequels and originals, but hopefully we get another decade just like the 2000s
Hmmm…I think I’d be ok with this. There have only been a couple (maybe one lol) sequels I actually really loved as much as the original (Toy Story 3!). I haven’t seen Finding Dory yet and have been avoiding your reviews lol. I’m trying to wait out all the children before I go lol.
Stumble Guys was also made available for PC in October 2021, and according to the game’s creator, 18 million people play it every day currently.
Agar io was the first io game. It was made by Matheus Valadares in 2015, and the internet forum 4chan helped it become very famous. The game is all about cells that grow when they eat agar and eat other players. A few months after the game came out, Miniclip bought it, and a new type of game based on the simple io name extension began to take shape.
The game’s visual style is so distinctive because of the bright colors and backgrounds that sync with the music.
That’s exciting news! Pixar focusing on original films after Incredibles 2 really shows their commitment to fresh storytelling instead of just relying on sequels. It’s a bold move that keeps fans curious and engaged. In the same way, apps like Snap troid also stand out by offering unique features beyond the usual, giving users something new to explore rather than just repeating what’s already out there.
Wow, an end to the relentless sequel machine for now? Frankly, my jaw nearly hit the floor. Could this be the dawn of original storytelling again? Remember, there’s a whole universe of concepts to explore! Back when I was building a treehouse, calculating the roof’s Slope was a nightmare.
Okay, so Pixar’s sequel drought is upon us, huh? Color me intrigued. Seems like they are hitting the brakes on revisiting familiar animated universes, at least for a little while. I wonder if original stories will truly recapture the magic or if we’ll be clamoring for more of those continuing sagas. This sounds like a bold move into uncharted territory. I remember once being stuck in a project at work that was totally sequel-ized, it felt so repetitive. We really needed to shake things up and come up with something fresh, something geometry dash level innovative, or we would lose clients!
