It's not a fantasy world but why do people making films, 101 Dalmations, Babe, Dr Dolittle, only use the Jim Henson Company for the first film not the sequel???

Any thoughts?

One reason is that they jump on the CGI bandwagon, thinking that it's more realistic. Also, they usually blow all the money for sequels on actors who want a bigger slice of the pie. In addition, HA makes it look so easy, the producers think anybody can do that, so they'll save money by using the guy working out of his garage.

Don't get me started!

Maybe the Henson Companu wants to move on to other projects instead of sequels. It could happen, but I'm not sure how likely that is.
