AHHHH! Bad. Idea.
I was impressed with Monsters vs. Aliens, honestly. I enjoyed it better than I thought I would. [spoil]I thought some of the jokes involving the president in the film were too awkward, but that’s beside the point.[/spoil]
But I really really really don’t approve of it having any more added to it besides fanfiction. It had a good enough ending as it is. The storylines of the episodes of the TV show will be predictable and getting more predictable.
Rac_Rules: Yes, I know what you mean. Funny thing is, though, I liked some of Disney’s cheapquels/television shows. Granted, sometimes they were insults to the original films, sometimes they were questionable, and always they could never ever live up to the epicness of the first.
However, despite the bad animation, less emphasis on important points and more emphasis on cartoon humor and predictable, somewhat childish points, I really enjoyed the Lilo and Stitch series. I don’t get why they drew Stitch wrong, but I guess making TV show episodes meant less hard work into the animation and thinking things through. I watched as many episodes of the series as possible, though they did lose originality. I guess I liked the characters so much that I ignored the rest. What I didn’t like was the complete weakness of Leroy and Stitch, the final cheapquel made to complete the Lilo and Stitch saga. It lessened what was so well-done and important and lovable of the very first film!! It was probably the most childish cheapquel of them all, and I believe sucked compared to the original. Is it so bad, though, that I sometimes got up early in the morning to watch the Tarzan series? And The Little Mermaid? Looking back, I know they were weak compared to the originals, but maybe I was watching it because I just wanted to see more of the characters. 
Sorry, I went on a ramble there, didn’t I? It just feels good to type all that out, though.
Anyway, lemme get my post back on topic…DreamWorks isn’t that bad except for when it comes to some overused gross jokes and the cheapquelness. They really do seem to run out of ideas sometimes, so they make the TV shows and cheapquels because they are sometimes not only doing it for money but also doing it because they are still kinda blinded…thinking that making more unnecessary scenes and stories of the characters audiences love when the ending was alright the way it was would be a good thing…you know, adding more to seemingly no end because at the moment they can’t come up with anything else so they decide to expand on their previous works thinking it helps. Just like Disney did. Sometimes it works on some people, who are unaware at what is ruined and just want to see more, but the majority of the audience would shake their heads no to it and sigh.
Ahhhh…I surprised myself by rambling that much. You didn’t have to read all that (most likely looking at it, you just skimmed or skipped altogether- I don’t blame you). But yeah, you get my point. I’ve probably just stated what we all know already and just went on and on about it. Heh.
