History AndTheFandomRejoiced / Disney

** Disney really had it rough last year. [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse The MCU]] is too hit or miss these days, ''Franchise/StarWars'' is in shambles, Creator/{{Pixar}}'s movies are flopping at the box office, the parks are getting too greedy, we have too many [[Film/DisneyLiveActionRemakes remakes]], and their [[WesternAnimation/{{Wish}} latest animated film]] was pretty mediocre. How are they gonna pick up in 2024? Wait a minute...what's this? We're getting a sequel to Moana?! And it's coming out ''in November''?! CHEEEEEEEE-HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

* ''WesternAnimation/{{The Lion King|1994}}'' re-released in 3D!. And it was such a success that Disney decided to do similar re-releases with ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}'', ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo'', and ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc''.

* Creator/{{Pixar}} is making another WesternAnimation/MonstersInc movie? After all this time? It's gonna be a ''[[WesternAnimation/MonstersUniversity prequel?]]'' YES!

* So ''Wreck-It Ralph'' is getting a sequel called ''WesternAnimation/RalphBreaksTheInternet'', huh? Seems awesome! Let's see what they'll reveal at D23 2017—'''HOLY CRAP, ARE YOU SERIOUS?!''' '''''Every single Disney character EVER appearing?!''''' Including from Creator/{{Pixar}}, [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Marvel]] and [[Franchise/StarWars Lucasfilms]]?! And ''every single Franchise/{{Disney Princess}} will be there '''WITH ALMOST ALL OF THEM REPRISING THEIR ORIGINAL ROLES'''''?! Disney, [[PunctuatedForEmphasis SHUT. UP. AND. TAKE. MY. MONEY!]]

** ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid'': All of Music/AlanMenken's incidental music, and Vanessa's reprise of "Poor Unfortunate Souls".

* We're FINALLY getting [[https://d23.com/whats-next-walt-disney-company/ a sequel]] to ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles''.

** Alright, so we've already gotten more sequels for ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen}}'' confirmed. What else have you got Disney? ''Zootopia 2''?! After all this time, our hopes have been answered!

* After the ambiguous success of ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'', there was some fear that Pixar films with female leads wouldn't be happening anytime soon. But then there was the announcement of ''WesternAnimation/InsideOut'', which will take place in a girl's mind where three of the five anthropomorphized emotions are women.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing'' re-released in 3D!. And it was such a success that Disney decided to do similar re-releases with ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid'', ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo'', and ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc''.

* [[WesternAnimation/{{Moana}} A Disney film set in Polynesia]], with a release date for 2016? That's a cool idea, but I don't see how this could be worth the...wait a minute, '''[[WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective JOHN]] [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid MUSKER]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} AND]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}} RON]] [[WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet CLEM]][[WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog ENTS]] ARE DIRECTING?!'''

** ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing'' (the first soundtrack in this line): Music/HansZimmer's complete score, and Timon's and Pumbaa's luau version of "Hawaiian War Chant".

** ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'': Music/RandyNewman's complete score, even the fanfare he wrote for Creator/{{Pixar}}'s version of the Disney logo.

*** With Randy Newman doing both the score ''and'' the songs, who can't be excited to listen?

** And there was a lot of rejoicing when it was announced that Anika Noni Rose, who stole quite a lot of scenes in the film version of ''{{Theatre/Dreamgirls}}'', was going to voice the titular princess.

** ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood'': The first CD/digital release of this soundtrack, and the first addition to the collection in two years.

* Okay, there's ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'', with one group of people complaining that Disney's going to screw up and make it all racist and another group whining how Disney's caving in and making it too [[PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad politically correct]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcF4gzr_KJY Out comes the second trailer...]] Whoops, everyone's busy squealing with excitement now!

* While we are talking about Disney, ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective'' is also a great example: "Oh...Franchise/SherlockHolmes. [[RecycledInSpace Mice.]] [[SarcasmMode How original]]. Thanks for killing another classi...hey, is that Creator/VincentPrice? As the main villain? It ''must'' be awesome."

** ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame'': Alan Menken's complete score, samples from ''Theatre/DerGloecknerVonNotreDame'', and previously-unreleased deleted songs and demos.

** ''WesternAnimation/TheAristocats'': George Bruns' complete score, and the uncut version of SignatureSong "Everybody Wants to Be a Cat"[[note]]albeit with Shun Gon's politically-incorrect solo muted[/note]].

** ''WesternAnimation/TheAristocats'': George Bruns' complete score, and the uncut version of SignatureSong "Everybody Wants to Be a Cat".

** Even better---there's a SequelHook in the film implying that there's ''still more to come for the franchise!'' Yay!!
