Oh the sequels, they are a comin’…Star Trek 2, Bond 23, Men in Black 3, The Dark Knight Rises and oh so many more in 2012
When I see a movie I like, I always give a sequel a chance. I rarely care how good it looks, I’m just willing to see what they build on and where the story goes. The sequel to a sequel is different. If the movie that came before it was not impressive, the name alone … Continue reading
