I Finally Got Through 'Pocahontas 2'.......


.....and it STILL stinks. =D

What a sorry mish-mash of "Pochontas", "My Fair Lady" and every Erol Flynn movie ever made. Dreadful beyond belief.

I hope Irene Bedard and Judy Kuhn were forced to make this movie because it was in the contract they signed for "Pocahontas" and not because they wanted to or thought this was a good project.

Well Mel did "Braveheart" right after he finished work on "Pocahontas" (in fact, Irene Bedard has NEVER met Mel Gibson because they recorded all their voice tracks seperately) and he was busy shooting "Braveheart" when Poca premiered. Their schedules never meshed and they haven't met to this day as far as I know.

Mel was too big a star by the time "Poca 2" came around and he wasn't about to take the time to do a "direct-to-video" release. So they tapped his brother to stand in for him. XD
