This doesn't exactly pertain to 3D but since it involves boss battle discussion, thought I'd put it in here.
Yeah, as has been mentioned, the Disney boss presence in this game is extremely underwhelming. Rinzler, Pete, Chernabog and Julius? Not that I don't appreciate the Chernabog fight, but we've already fought him, and then Pete/Julius we've fought in different forms. The Dream Eater fights look awesome, but all the same part of the appeal in the KH franchise is sticking it to the Disney villains. There's something satisfying about smacking around Jafar or going head to head with Scar, and no matter how fun the Dream Eater battles feel, it doesn't have that same oomph to it.
Now I'm scratching my head over all the missed opportunities for Disney boss battles as of late. It doesn't seem like time constraints, but that they just choose to forgo the boss battles altogether for no reason. As an example, watching the Legacy cutscenes, Clu is in the perfect position to fight Riku, but then it just cuts to the Praying Mantis Dream Eater.
So one thing I've been thinking is that, perhaps, the reason why this has been happening lately is because Nomura is saving them up for KH3.
I'm not saying that we'll be visiting La Cite des Cloches or Dwarf Woodlands again, but rather that the villains will still appear sans their worlds (a la Maleficent in KH1).
Can you imagine that?
A new gathering of villains in KH3 which would include Maleficent and Pete (of course), the Evil Queen, Frollo, Clu, and then villains from other worlds like Davy Jones from PotC, Syndrome from The Incredibles, etc. Hell, maybe even a Reaper from TWEWY since Sora promised to visit Shibuya (might be one of those pokemon I-know-we'll-meet-again-someday type deals, but at the very least Shibuya has been established in the canon, which is more than we can say for any Final Fantasy worlds). AND TACK ON GASTON FINALLY FOR GOOD MEASURE.
I mean, that right there, damn. That is sounding like a fine gathering of villains.
Bear in mind, though, that the Queen was never shown to have died, and Frollo and Clu only died in the RoS. Plus, even if they are actually dead, wouldn't be hard to bring them back. Just look at the likes of Oogie Boogie and Ursula...
And then for the villains without their own worlds, that'd give the writers the opportunity to utilize them in fresh and unexpected ways, branch out a bit. Maybe even have them appear in other Disney worlds.
So yeah. Wishful thinking, obviously. IDGAF
