Who else thinks that they would have enjoyed this movie more if it had someone other than Balto in it?

The main problem with this movie is that people expected it to be like Balto 1 since it had Balto in the title. It's like how the Super Mario Bros. 2 we got in America is just Doki Doki Panic with Mario characters slapped on. It's not the real Super Mario Bros. 2. Nothing is present from the original except for a few characters in both Wolf Quest and Mario 2.

If Balto 2 didn't have Balto, Jenna, Boris, Muk, and Luk, we would've had different expectations and might have actually enjoyed the movie a little. Oh yeah, a different title as well. Same plot, same character personalities, etc.

Who agrees?

If the movie "Balto" didn't have Balto in it, then it wouldn't be about Balto.
And the Balto movie has more then just Balto in it.

Exactly. Our expectations towards it would be completely different, since it wouldn't be a Balto movie.

If it wasent a Balto movie then this wouldent exist and every ones opinion towards it would be different
