Their track record isn’t so horrible that they’ve been on the decline, but apparently, enough poor returns have made it possible for the execs to refuse certain movie ideas since they might not have been on the docket to begin with or are seen as unnecessary risks that Disney doesn’t want to take. Whether Disney will ever bring the movie back or not is hard to say, but at the moment it does sound as though the idea that Jerry Bruckheimer started fouling up with some of the ideas that followed Pirates of the Caribbean: The Black Pearl, had something to do with this decision.ĭisney has had some massive hits over the past two decades when it comes to live-action movies, but there have also been a few incredible flops that haven’t so much tarnished their reputation as they’ve managed to remind people that Disney isn’t infallible and can in fact put out horrible movies that aren’t worth watching. At some point it doesn’t really matter how much people complain or how many petitions might be sent their way, Disney is going to do what they want when it comes to their movies and the third installment of this idea just doesn’t appear to be a big priority. But then, trying to figure out just why Disney does the things they do has a lot to do with the money and what they believe they can risk and what they won’t. Taking into account the fact that the first and second movies did pretty well in the box office it’s hard to see why the Mouse House didn’t think that going forward with another story would be a good idea. It goes to show that even the Mouse House isn’t going to toss money in all directions as often as people think since the idea of making a National Treasure 3 isn’t completely dead, but it’s currently hanging out in that area known as limbo since it sounds as though too many flops have kind of soured Disney execs to the idea of simply going full-speed ahead with every project that comes across their desk.
