Am I the only one that smells a Saturday Morning Cartoon series or endless series of sequels based on the movie in the future?

There is talk of a sequel, which leaves me in two minds.

On one hand, Dreamworks does have the rights to the whole book series it was based on, although I'm not sure if the others would work well as a film… even if they have the rights, they might opt for an original story.

Putting that aside though, part of me is up for a sequel… I'd almost like to see another installment of the same length made, as there's still probably plenty to tell about Hiccup, Toothless… and the people of Berk. And a new film would give us more awesome scenes of flying, of Hiccup and Toothless bonding… and of how Hiccup tweaks both the harness he invented, and his prosthetic


However, the part of me that is reserved on the idea of a sequel, is that to pull it off, it has to be as well written, thought out, plotted, scored… and be given as good a play on the emotional scale as the original… and the formula of the original is often lost when it comes to a sequel.


If they were able to make the sequel as good as the original, or even better, then I'm all for it. But if they'd end going down the same route as the Shrek franchise, I'd rather How To Train Your Dragon remain a standalone.

I watched New Moon with my wife. I'll save you “it was rubbish” typical review and just say, don't watch it.

Really? Interesting. I was unaware that Dreamworks had acquired the writes to the entire series. Whether they decide to make anymore sequels, I think they should do How to Train Your Viking as a direct-to-DVD Standalone. It'd be interesting to see the events of the movie from Toothless' point of view.

Sick day yesterday, watched “3 Extremes” and the first “Terminator”.

“Dread.” The name says it all. It's one of the “After Dark Horrorfest” movies, and it is just awful. It's so damn bad I've been getting angry every time I thought of it today.

Infuriatingly bad.

Don't watch it.

Is that the Jumanji “sequel” with the board game that takes them into space? I watched that a few weeks ago on TV, thought it was a pretty good movie. Entertained me enough at least.

EDIT: Argh, now I want to watch Jumanji and I only have it on VHS.

Yeah, you should see the people on IMDB complaining about the movie. There is a part where they push the couch into space to get rid of the Zorgons. They set it on fire and push it in space. People are complaining that it is unrealistic because the couch is pushed outside in space where there is no oxygen so how does it keep burning. They should know it's just a movie, it does not have to be logical, the whole thing about a game having supernatural power and sending players to space is also horrible.
