- This was by no means a Disney "cheapquel," and it's amazing just how far the old "House of Animation" has let the ball drop on "2-D" animation -- only to have it picked up by the crew at Dreamworks.

- I just can't get over how they directly lifted the scene from Lion King where Simba's father appears in the clouds! And the stampede! I mean, the similarities are laughable, this comes across almost as bad as Dizzney's cheapquels.

- Also I have been read a lot online about all the Disney animated cheapquels, and the reason they sour against the originals and the Disney name in animation is how that the plots in the sequels are more or less the same as the originals, or that they would have the characteers[sic] do the same or similar things from the original flicks.

- So, although "Lion King II" and "Pocahontas 2" (and yeah, that Mulan 2 that kinda got away before they shut the rest down) still exist as separate entities, most of the pulled cheapquels to titles still remaining on the Platinum list (Jungle Book, 101D) are rumored to have now been downgraded to "Bonus extras"...
