I heard that news. Technically the only non-animated shot in the film is the sunrise at the start, according to someone who worked on it.

It looks like Toy Story 4 will soon be the highest-grossing domestic G-rated film, beating the original version of The Lion King! Do you think it can do it?

 

[D'Snowth]

I hope not.

 

[Froggy Fool]

I would rather Toy Story beat a Disney remake any day...

Why is the remake of IT getting a sequel? Did the book have a sequel?

Why is the remake of IT getting a sequel? Did the book have a sequel?

It's because in the original story there were parts about them when they were kids, and parts about them as adults. So, for the remakes they just split those halves into two movies.

Okay.

So . . . Disney is going to make a live action Cruella de Vil movie, and Emma Stone is going to play her.
