Which means after "The Little Mermaid 3" we can stop hearing about these crappy sequels. About time!
How did this come about? Well, Apple CEO Steve Jobs also ran Pixar, and Disney bought Pixar. Steve thus became Disney's largest shareholder and a spot on the Disney board...
...and used it for good, because in 2003 Jobs said "We feel sick about Disney doing sequels. If you look at the quality of their sequels... it's pretty embarrassing."
Thank you Steve!
