Toy Story 3
smack that isaiah:
One of my roommates loves Lion King 1.5. I've not yet watched it, but he generally has a pretty good taste in movies (generally)
reading about Aladdin and the King of Thieves makes me really want to watch the whole trilogy again (I have all three on VHS still). I watched the first one all the time as a kid, and occasionally the Return of Jafar, but I only watched the third one maybe 3 times total.

Lion King 1 1/2 is the one that follows Timon and Pumba, yes? If it is, that movie is absolutely irredeemable. What they do is show events from the first Lion King and apparently Timon and Pumba were there too. It's a little insulting to see if you have respect for the original film. You know in the first movie, all the animal kingdom bows down to Simba? In 1.5, that's because Pumba farts and it knocks all the animals out. Oh Disney, what were you thinking?
I think most of the Disney sequels were horrible. The one that always struck me as the most tasteless was Bambi 2. There was a film that really didn't need to be made.
Also, watching Fantasia 2000 makes me a little sad. Celebrities? In Fantasia? They should keep up the Fantasia movies though, little animated shorts set to classical and maybe a few contemporary pieces? Could be pretty awesome.
Theriandros:
I am having very mixed feelings about #3. True, it's pretty much being made by Pixar and corporate is putting effort into making a real movie rather than a shitquel, but I thought #2 was pretty average. Not bad, but far from the greatness that Pixar was capable of. These guys may have made WALL-E, The Incredibles, and Monsters, Inc, but they also made Cars, which was also pretty average.
So anwyays, I am skeptical and hopeful.
Also, random Pixar fact: Apparently Joss Whedon was on the Oscar-nominated writing team for the original Toy Story.
Other random Pixar fact: Up is the second-highest-worldwide-grossing movie ever released by Pixar.

Up is quite sad at certain times to the point where I don't want to watch it again for emotional reasons.
