When you don't have anything original to make into a film or interesting to say the easiest and laziest thing to do is repeat what has gone before.
Donnie Darko 2.
Sweet mother of God, why?

I haven't seen Donnie Darko, so I'm guessing I haven't missed anything. Transformers 2, Jurassic Park 2 and 3 (OK, JP1 wasn't that bad, but the sequels where just cash-cows) |

I loved Transformers 2, but the other two Jurassic Parks weren't up to much!! Otherwise I reckon that Starship Troopers sequel was a waste of so much tape!! |

Those 2 sequels are a guilty pleasure for me. I enjoyed them both.

Apparently The Life Of Brian was nearly called Jesus: A lust for power. |

Maybe I just don't "get it", but I thought it was rather fudged up and boring... |

@ Professor F. I'm guessing that you consider DD2 to be unnecessary because you can't top the original. Fair enough. I have heard of it and that's all I can say. I don't even know (without looking it up) who's in it or what it's about. |

The thing about Donnie Darko is that there is no room for a sequel. What happened happened and it was all resolved. How could there be a sequel when the story was over? |

Never stopped them before - a famously bad example being the sequel to The Poseidon Adventure. Jon |
