I’m a bit new and heading to the introduction thread, but just wanted to comment here.
I was honestly surprised when I heard that there’s going to be Finding Nemo 2. I can’t say that I’m exactly pleased about it; after all, Pixar’s sequels are not just add-ons the way Disney’s tend to be. They’re actually counted as feature films. I think that Finding Nemo ended on a lovely note. I’m worried that what happened to Cars 2 (which wasn’t awful, but just not Pixar-like, for me.) will happen to Nemo 2. I think it might not contribute positively to the beautiful film that Finding Nemo was. I don’t doubt the skill of the guys at Pixar, but I’m not so sure.
^That could be… it would make sense, considering Alexander Gould is all grown up now. It’s got to be tricky to write something like that, considering a lot of Disney sequels go that direction of the second-generation-(insert character here) story. Not that I’m totally against Disney sequels or anything; I just know that whatever Pixar does, it’ll be different and pure awesome! Maybe Nemo will be a teenager, but then that could easily start sounding like Brave, so I don’t know really… but who knows?
Yeah, I also thought of an idea where Nemo is a teenager and has another misunderstanding with Marlin and runs away. I don’t know how creative that would be though.
Is this still happening? Sorry, I can’t remember. I don’t think Pixar confirmed anything yet, but I heard that Andrew Stanton did although I thought it was most people trying to imply this by the way he said something in an interview.
