Movies he should review for Sequel Month: The Sequel


Inspector Gadget 2 (I know he already reviewed this, outside the NC character for Disneycember)
Cats & Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore
Spy Kids 4: All The Time in The World
Garfield 2: A Tail of Two Kitties
Alvin & The Chipmunks: The Squeakuel
The Smurfs 2
Baby Geniuses 3: The Mystery of The Crown Jewels

I know only he will only review two films (January 10 and January 24) but those sound like some good ideas for some bad sequels.

He's not going to validate your opinions on some worthless children's movies. Get over yourself.

reply

Calm down dummy, he is offering opinion on an opinion forum.

Of all the movies you mentioned, the only likely ones are Garfield 2 and The Squeakuel.

I say this because Spy Kids and Cats & Dogs are relatively recent reviews, so not many people have requested their sequels yet.

With Smurfs 2, he will likely wait for the black nerd to be available.

And for Baby Geniuses 3, he doesn't make NC reviews of Direct-to-Video films.

At least not yet. If he can do TV series, TV commercials, PSA's, and even theme music, he can certainly do direct-to-video sequels.


But technically speaking, he did review a direct-to-video sequel: "Tentacolino", the sequel animated Titanic film, AKA the third animated Titanic review he did. No release date is reflected in the USA, and IMDb only shows it with no day or month for Italy.

The Mummy Returns. Seems he and Rob hate the franchise as whole.

Whatever you are, be a good one.

I'm pretty sure he'll be doing 'Baby Geniuses 3', since he's done the other two and they were so wildly popular

I'm stunned by these Chipmunk sequels. The first one was terrible and the sequels are worse than that. It seems every year they keep making another. I lost count -- I think last I heard there were four. It's like the Saw films -- terrible films they keep making sequels of and you forget about it until yet another sequel comes out and you think, "Good God, they're still making these???"

I had to actually look it up: the domestic box office total for "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel" is listed online as $219,614,612. Almost two hundred and twenty million dollars -- mind boggling. Bad parents! Go to your rooms!

Just out of curiousity I picked the number four and searched to see what the domestic box office total for "Saw IV" was: $63,300,095.

My only consulation with the Squeakquel is two things:

1. Worldwide the box office is reported online to be: $443,140,005. So it made half that in the U.S. and then in every country it was release in on Earth, it made the other half, so a lot of the world said: NO.

And 2: While I cannot and wouldn't even take the time to see what movie ticket prices are across the world, assuming it's an average of $8.50 world wide and dividing the total box office by that, it appears only about 52 million people actually saw that, and you know most of that was kids who will either forget about the movie or thought it was so boring they started doing something else inside the theater. Still, 52 million is too high for such puke. That's higher than the population of Canada.


The most annoying part for me is why in the world David Newman keeps scoring these things (Aside from one of them, at least). The same David Newman who scored such fun, serious, and interesting films as "Hoffa", "The Brave Little Toaster", "The Sandlot", "Tommy Boy", "Serenity", etc., has had a career as of late that includes one Godawful sequel after another, from the Chipmunk sequels, the Big Momma sequel, the A Christmas Story sequel (so, so horrible), Scooby Doo sequels, and pretty much nothing of note since 2005. Assuming whomever submitted these had reliable sources, his upcoming projects include other dead before arrival things as:

"Girls Trip" and "Green Eggs and Ham".

No! Bad David Newman! Go to your room! And fire your agent!
