Brad Bird finally discussing "Incredables 2" and "Madagascar 3" to premiere at Cannes

     It took Pixar four years to follow up Toy Story with Toy Story 2, and another eleven to get around to releasing Toy Story 3, but that unhurried pace worked out just fine for the studio. The two sequels are every bit as beloved as the original was, and that success has everything to do with the fact that Pixar waited for the right story to come along, rather than simply cobbling together sequel after sequel to maximize their profits. Unlike Cars.
     Now Brad Bird is taking a similar approach with The Incredibles, which opened in 2004 and has had fans begging for a sequel ever since. “I would not say no to [The Incredibles 2], because I really love that world and I love those characters,” he told IFC. But he doesn’t want to move on it until he’s got a plan in place, hears what he said-
      I really love those characters and if I can figure out a whole story to do I would do it. But one of the advantages that we had in the original ‘Incredibles’ was that several of the characters had never really got to flex their muscles before. They were repressed, and it was about them discovering their own abilities… Any sequel to it, that particular thing — which is really a wonderful thing to be able to explore in a movie — that’s sort of gone. And so you have to find something that is equally interesting to do in a sequel.
       See this is why I like Pixar they not only make movies but they actually take there time creating a beautiful story that grows into our hearts.
       Now going on to Dreamworks-
       Having previously premiered Shrek, Shrek 2, Over the Hedge, and Kung Fu Panda at Cannes, DreamWorks will head back to the Croisette this year to debut Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted. The animated comedy sequel is only the second title announced so far from this year’s lineup, following Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom. Madagascar 3 may seem on the surface like it’d be out of place at a prestigious European film festival, but then again, it does boast a script by Noah Baumbach. Cannes runs May 16-27 this year; Madagascar 3‘s theatrical release will hit June 8.
        I still don't have good good thoughts on this movie.
