Finding Nemo sequel: Finding Dory

[AllyInWonderland]

I love Ellen! She is so awesome! I want to go to one of her shows too, but I live in Alabama.

Let's just hope Nemo and Marlin will actually be able to find Dory............

Right after I saw this on Facebook, I knew somebody has had to already post about this on WDWmagic

That's what I thought too, lol

Finding Nemo is my favorite Pixar movie hands down (I can easily do the lines the entire way through, esecially Dory's lines) and I am super excited for this sequel!!!!!!!

I can't wait for this to come out. I remember watching Finding Nemo all the time when it came out. Hopefully they don't ruin the FInding Nemo franchise with a horrible sequel. Hopefully they can make like Toy Story, make a great sequel and a possible 3rd movie.

I love how so many people are against sequels thinking its going to take away from original movies. Pixar opened up a 2nd studio in Canada a few years ago in order to take on many more projects..including these sequel/prequels. This is going to make piles of money for the company, and its only beneficial to do these sort of things to gain revenue to continue making NEW content as well. (Tho, I'm sorry..I think Cars 2 is by far the worst cartoon to come out of "disney" to date)

Someone also mentioned that they want an incredible sequel before this...well..good things come to those who wait

Let's see, John Lasseteer comes in to Feature Animation a few years back and kills sequels to animated films (Dumbo, etc.). Flash forward...Cars 2, Monsters University, Finding Dory...I think corporate accountant aliens have eaten his brain. Sad.

You forgot toy story 2 which was done in 1999 but nobody seems to hate that one :/ Cars 2 did suck but I have hope for monsters university and the nemo sequel I think they are going to be great additions to the pixar line up!

Or those who ask enough on National TV, as Ellen did.

Most unneeded sequel of all time perhaps?

It's just as unnecessary as Toy Story 2 and 3. I'd say those turned out pretty well. Really... think about how Toy Story ended. Everything was wrapped up so nicely. It doesn't mean there aren't other stories that can be told in that universe.

This sequel will be released on November 25th, 2015.

Thank you for posting this! The FIRST thing I thought of when I heard the news was: "I can't wait to see what Ellen says!"

Although I love Finding Nemo (I don't know how many times I've seen it, I could probably quote the entire movie), I'm quite upset it's getting a sequel before The Incredibles. The Incredibles is in my top three favorite Pixar films and it gets no love. I don't understand it. Brad Bird needs to write that script already.

Finding Dory should make for an interesting plot, nonetheless.

Brad Bird is a big-time movie director now, and I don't think they'll make another Incredibles without him.

I know. And I wouldn't want Pixar to make the sequel without Brad Bird. He said he was working on the script... I just hope he's telling the truth and not just saying things just to make his hopefuls happy.

I'm OK with this and will probably see it in theaters.

Even if it's not as good as the original, the Pixar sequels have all been decent, IMO (even Cars 2).

The Pixar sequels have all been > The 90's and early 2000's Disney Animation sequels. They don't compare. Are they necessary? Nope, but they could also be a lot worse.

A prequel based on Dory might provide an interesting story. It could provide some insight into what caused Dory's short term memory loss condition.

 

[Adam5897]

To me this is just another sign of a lack of creativity and risk taking (what made pixar great from the start).

 

[Clamman73]

So I take it "Finding The Living Seas" movie is shelved for now...

 

[Can we go yet?]

Where is it stated it's a prequel?

Disney also announced a new attraction for Finding Dory

Where is it stated it's a prequel?

It's a one-year later sequel. Dory somehow found her way to the California coast.

I think this is totally acceptable news! Why? Because Pixar currently is ALSO releasing a completely original movie during their summer timeslot (The Inside the Mind Movie). I'm glad they are finally hitting the two movies a year benchmark, it allows them to stretch their creative muscles while still returning to previous movies. I actually would argue that Pixar has too many ideas and was not just producing movies fast enough. Of course if an idea happens to involve returning to a previous franchise that's going to be where Disney would like them to head.

Also can I just point out the following....

Pirates 5, Star Wars VII, Avengers II, Finding Dory + (At least one additional Marvel and Pixar movie) in 2015. Who knows what else...

Is it just coincidence that Bob Iger is retiring that year as well? Way to end on a guaranteed box office smashing high note.

Well- I absolutely love Toy Story ( all of them).
I am sure that this new Nemo movie will be excellent! Looking forward to it!
Can't wait for Monsters U. and Planes this summer!
I actually liked Cars 2, but I know I'm in the minority. I just love Mater!

I'm not against sequels, it's what they're making sequels to. Cars did not need a sequel. Monsters Inc. did not need a sequel. And Finding Nemo most certainly does not need a sequel. Now the Incredibles was practically MADE for a sequel. I'm seriously very shocked that Pixar didn't cash in on it as a franchise.

I wonder if there was an agreement with the Marvel deal where Disney agreed not to pursue development of super heroes outside of the Marvel Universe.
