Toy Story 4???
Tom Hanks was recently interviewed by the BBC while promoting his latest film, 'Larry Crowne' which he directed and stars in. When asked about another 'Toy Story' film sequel, Hanks hinted "I think there will be. They're working on it now."
I'm quite suprised that there would be another 'Toy Story' film since the 3rd and assumed final film had a beautiful ending that was great closure for it's avid fans. I'm hoping this won't occur, because it would be rather upsetting to have another sequel just to rake in money and not to continue a beautiful, well told story. What do you think?? Do you think they should make another one?? Please share your thoughts.

James Cameron talks Avatar Sequels!!!
James Cameron talked to Fox News about the sequels of Avatar. This is what he had to say:
"We're shooting two films back-to-back, so I'm writing two scripts, not one, which will complete a [three]-film story arc , not really a trilogy, but just an overall character arc so I'm pretty excited about that,"we'redoing a lot of preliminary work right now on new software and new animation techniques and so on. We're creating a new facility in Manhattan Beach so everybody that's not already dead is coming back. There's always an expectation. I had to deal with that after 'The Terminator' back in 1984. All of a sudden I had a big hit movie and it was 'what are you doing next?' But my job is take the audience on a journey and entertain them, the second I am sitting down writing, I just go to Pandora. I don't think about that stuff, about standing on a red carpet. It has its own life, really. The characters have their own lives."
Can't wait for the sequels!!! Can you??!!
