Last year, I said in my April fool joke that there would be no Balto 4 planned because it didn't sell well enough. => this turned out to be exactly the truth.
A few days ago, I made an April fool joke with saying I would replace Balto Source with a Barbie Source...claiming that "they should make more Barbie films".

And guess what? Universal just made an agreement to make more Barbie films!!! Arrrrgh, I'm dreaming !!! (or a nightmare, in fact)

Read this :

Quote:
Mattel is bringing its popular Barbie DVD franchise to Universal Studios Home Entertainment as part of a multi-year, multi-picture worldwide marketing and distribution deal for feature-length DVDs, the companies announced Tuesday. The deal is a coup for Universal, which created Universal Studios Family Entertainment Productions last year in a bid to increase its output of family films under its DVD Originals line. The studio hired former Lionsgate exec Glenn Ross to head the unit.

Glenn Ross...Don't you know that name? Yes, the one we sent the petition to. Grrrrr.... :x

Maybe if you said, 'Theres going to be a Balto 4.' For an April Fools joke next year, we'll see a Balto 4? allears.gif

NO BARBIE! I HATE BARBIE...come on, they really think Barbie is better than Balto?! I think all of the Balto fansites and all of us stand as proof that Balto's more popular than Barbie could ever be...Stupid Universal...Don't get me started on how much I hate Barbie...

I say we should go to Universal Studios and do the 'Angry Mob' thing you see on cartoons :roll:

My thoughts exactly. Only little kids would watch that, and even then, most little kids don't even like Barbie anymore. Universal have to face facts: No one likes Barbie. Make Balto sequels instead! :D

urgh... Barbie... the biggest piece of sh** ever...

Now what is better:

Balto or Barbie

Barbie

+ Don't know any + pints...

- Always nearly the same Storys...
- Always too much pink...
- TOO MUCH BARBIE!!!!!!!!!!
- bad characters
- ugly music

Balto:
+ Great characters
+ Great Storys
+ Great Music
+ Great Animations
+ Great emotions
+ Great songs

- ummm don't know?

HMM now, which film should they make... a really hard question, isn't it?

blink.gif jawdropper.gif AHHH!!! steet, your April Fools' jokes are self-fulfilling prophecies!!!
idea.gif next time get people's hopes up for April Fools Day! Maybe then good things will happen for the Balto 'franchise' (I hate that word!). Hopefully thing will get better later. They can still change their minds.

-_- gawd...I hope when they say "barbie is bringing it's buisness to Universal Studios", they don't mean they'll be making any videos TOO soon...-_- O gawd o gawd o gawd...Did he see your April Fools joke?? >< IF this is why Universal has agreed to do this, I have one thing to say...

WHEN WILL PEOPLE LEARN TO READ OTHER PEOPLE'S COMMENTS????!!!! :roll:

Now, I might be mistaken, this could just be some coincedince and I may not have read right...But...UGH!!!!!!!!

And second of all, why is everyone so anxious for a Balto 4?? Seriously!! What happens if they DO change their minds about making it, and then everyone's like; "Ok, that was really stupid! And terrible animation!!!" I believe there isn't really a point in "crying" about them not making a Balto 4, but hey, that's me...I'm just a little "disturbed" and "concerned" about all the people upset over it...-_-

You know Steet, maybe they had this movie planned before your joke... but then again, it does seem very suspicious with Glenn Ross...

either way, what can we possibly do about it? Angry emails to make Balto and not make Barbie? Boycott?

There really isn't much we can do that will work against a studio like Universal.
