I miss the original animation style. It just made the first movie that much better! What do YOU think? Anyone besides me think that it would be awsome if the other two balto movies were redone in the original animation style? It'd be cool if they could get the original voice actors too!

of course i miss the old animation style! the second movie especially made fun of the first movie. it had the worst animation that i had ever seen in my life. the third wasn't as bad as the second, but the animation was still poor. aside from the animation, i also miss the original voice actors. the characters just didn't seem the same without them.

This is exactly my point. And it goes for ALL sequels to animated movies. Here's my thought:

A-why don't they take the time to gather the original team of animators, actors etc.

and

B-if they think that the movie will be a success, like Balto was, then why don't the just make the sequel at the same time as the first and then release it at a later date?

i think they changed the original voice actors because they called for too much money, or they were just too lazy to contact them.

This is true, but if they're going to try and continue a legacy they should at least get enough money and compatence to actually do a good job. Honestly they could have made WQ sooooo much better! I have yet to see wings of change bt I'm sertain the same goes for it too.

yeah, i've seen it. it was much better than WQ, but it was still horrible compared to the original. it's a real shame that they've stopped making more movies. they could have tried to redeem themselves, and possibly make more money.

I agree, but making too many movies would wear the series out and make them look like profit monggers. Pretty soon people would get fed up with the all the Balto movies and not even come to appretiate the classic original. Which is kinda what happened to the land before time series. But you can't really compare cause the land before time movies were horrible. And balto rocks.

, can't argue with that. still, i think that they should have stuck with the classic. they shouldn't have even bothered to make a second Balto movie. they blew the movie's reputation.

I hear ya! What they should do is try to pull themselves out of the hole they've dug and make one last movie. A prequel, about balto's childhood. With the original animation style, original voice actors if possible, and make it true to the original, no mystic "becoming one" with things, just a simple story of how balto got where he is now. And they should make good choices for the voices that we haven't heard yet, like Balto's mom and dad. As for the story, check out CatWhoHas14Tails's version of Balto's origin. It would make an excellent end to the series. Not to metion it would redeem it entirely!

DrewTheWolf and Greykitty are already trying to redeem the movie by making a Balto 4. have you looked into that yet?

and i have seen it, and i agree that it would make a great end to the series. i'm sure that everyone is wondering what Balto's childhood (or more like puppyhood) was like. then again, not knowing could always be better than knowing.

A-men to that! If they screw Balto's puppyhood up i don't know what I'd do.

And no i haven't seen the Balto 4 proj. you spoke of, I'll look into that.

it's in this board. they have a shop and everything.
