Pixar what were you thinking?

Okay I don't know about you but I am a huge fan of Pixar and the movies they produce. I mean Toy Story 3 is everything an animated movie should be. There is no denying that it holds the torch to which every other animated movie should strive to be. The people at Pixar are amazing filmmakers in my mind. So with a string of successful movies including The Incredibles, Up, and Monsters Inc. to just name a few, why on earth would they choose a movie that only anyone under eight enjoyed for their next foray into the animated world? Yes I am taking about "Cars." (I know you should be screaming at what a tragedy it is for this stupid animated movie to get a sequel). Out of all them to continue the great stories they choose Cars. Cars in my mind is one of the worst movies that the studio has brought out. Not one person I have ever talked to has said that Cars was up there as a favourite by Pixar of theirs (with many people including myself turning it off and not even bothering to see it at the cinema). I crave the Pixar movie when it comes out because you know what to expect. An amazing movie, which pushes both the visual and emotional buttons for an audience. But why would Pixar do this? Why not follow through and create a whole new movie, with new fun characters like Mike and Sully, Mr Incredible, Woody and Buzz, or even Dori why go for a sequel? Don't tell me Pixar has already run out of original ideas? I come to expect huge things from them. I mean for a movie company that only brings out one movie a year (but usually that one movie makes a gazillion dollars thats how good they are) they need to be careful what they chose to bring out as that one movie a year will determine if they still got it, or are finally going to see their first flop (which I really hope not, but I can already tell you, I'm not seeing this movie.) Without a movie that will appeal to a larger demographic than eight year old boys, I feel Cars 2 could be a major disappointment to Pixar fans and the box-office when it is released next year. Come on guys lift your game in 2012 and come up with an original and bring back the fun of Pixar. Just please see a therapist first, as you may have gone a bit crazy thinking that Toy Story 3 should be followed up with Cars 2. Whatever was in the water at your studio that day, I would get rid of it fast (and the person who suggested it). Not a smart move at all. Not a smart move AT ALL.
