Future movies inspired by The Emoji Movie

The Emoji Movie is being released this week. Yep, an EMOJI movie has been commissioned and even attracted the voices of Anna Faris, James Corden, Christina Aguilera and the obvious choice, erm, Sir Patrick Stewart. Wikipedia tells me, "The film centers on Gene, a multi-expressional emoji who lives in a teenager's phone, and who sets out on a journey to become a normal meh emoji...
