** Because Maleficent is magical too, and much more powerful than them. She'd probably be not only able to turn herself back to normal, but to also return the favor considerably.

The 2nd movie was basically a bunch of short tales strung together, probably some failed TV series. The 3rd had to literally have time be turned back so Cinderella had to try and get the prince to fall in love with her again. That's now little these kinds of stories leave you to work with.
* No sequels? Really Disney? She's a DisneyPrincess for Pete's sake.. I'm sure Disney can think of an obscure idea.
** Considering the quality of most Disney Sequels, I'd say BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor. However, does anyone ever notice how [[EvilIsCool Maleficent]] [[SpotlightStealingSquad gets all the press?]] Not that that bothers me in and of itself...she ''was'' awesome...but the Good Fairies, and even Phillip, were enjoyable characters in their own right as well. I'd like to see more of them, too. Aurora as well, if she only had a brain. >.<
** Um, she ''did'' get a sequel. A half hour long one. And it was complete and utter rot. After getting married to a man she barely knows, and living with parents she never knew, she is abandoned to run the kingdom completely on her own for a while. Then she grabbed a magic wand and caused wacky hijinks, before learning that using magic is bad. When an angry mob shows up because she flooded the kingdom with cows, giant chickens, and green pigs, she solves the problem by saying "I will talk to each and everyone of you, but while you are waiting, who wants a free cow?" They then lift her up and sing praises of how she is the greatest princess ever. It was horrid.
** Sleeping Beauty is a fairytale, along with Snow White and Cinderella. Once you've told them, there's nothing left. The princesses get a literall Happily Ever After. As nice as that is, it means no conflict, and no conflict means no entertainment. Look how the sequels to Cinderella turned out.

* Why didn't they just wait until her seventeenth birthday to reveal Aurora's identity? We could have avoided this whole mess if they'd just waited until then, instead of thinking going back in the ''middle of the fateful day'' was safe. Or hell, even the day after her sweet sixteen would have broken the prophecy.
