Exciting Sequel News

<< < (6/21) > >>

Sox:
I'm pretty sure that when they cast signed the contracts for the first movie, they signed on for two sequels. It's something I recall reading in a review when the first movie came out.

Eris:
No, the script for the first movie was written as a stand alone deal. Then when they realised how big it was, they hired everyone back up for the other two, so the writers had to work out a way to make it look like they meant for it to be three all along. They failed to a degree.

--- Quote from: axerton on 03 Jun 2008, 20:29 ---In my opinion Pirates of the Caribbean could have had great sequels if they had followed the james bond/indiana jones style of completely separate stories with no overarching plot, and no need to have seen any of the others, it could have been great, and it could have gone on practically forever. But instead they chose to follow the same ill-fated route as the matrix and pretend that there was always a grand trilogy planned, and surprisingly enough they failed dismally.

--- End quote ---

I think one of the main reasons why Pirates failed was because they kept pretty much the same cast for all three movies.  When they brought Barbossa back I knew that I wasn't going to watch the third movie.  The whole seperate stories thing might have worked if they had kept Johnny Depp and gotten rid of Orlando Bloom.  And I'm pretty sure the first was released standalone because it ties up everything nicely.

 Damn Daveigh Chase got attractive as heck. I'm 18, so I am allowed to think so.

spidergland:
Just because you like David Lynch doesn't mean you can be a pervert.

We live in a day when anything that tops the charts gets the green light for a sequel.  Hell, there's even talk of a Sex and the City sequel.  *le sigh*
