Open your wallet and hire Will Smith again.  Don't try to launch a serial where the original material (ALCN2) does not warrant it.  Allow creative filmmakers to do what they want, and learn to tolerate box office failures (TBFG).

It's difficult to take seriously an article which suggests without nuance that MBFG2 did less than its predecessor. second gary Jul 26, 18:46

Yeah. More spectacle from films, less boring commentary would be a good start. {nm} VictorY Jul 26, 20:58

The author suggests that Hollywood is generally in big trouble but yet states that "year-to-date, the receipts are up 2%". BlackMamba1893 Jul 26, 22:00
