ENCHANTED was undoubtedly one of my favorite films of last year (you can read my review here), so you would maybe think that I’d be excited at the prospect of a potential sequel. I’m not. I can’t say I’m surprised though given that Disney has a pretty long track-record of milking its films for untold numbers of cash-cow sequels. According to Moviehole, “Kevin Lima, the chap behind the original, has apparently already spoken to Disney about the sequel. It’s not yet known whether the sequel will reunite Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey – though, if the price is right, it probably will – or fix on a new bunch of characters (who’ll leave toon-town for the bright lights, big city of modern-day America). ‘That’s what the guts of the discussions are about at the moment.’” Honestly, I feel neither idea is great, but if I had to choose, I’d say bring new characters into the mix. The Amy Adams/Patrick Dempsey storyline was wrapped up nicely and perfectly, so I say let them enjoy their happily ever after in peace and quiet.
