I think sequels should be earned and we won't do it unless the script is better than the first one.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I do do a sequel, I'm going to have to know for sure that the script is better than the original. So I'm going to be very careful about that because I'm not eager to repeat myself.
My gut feeling about sequels is that they should be premeditated: You should try to write a trilogy first or at least sketch out a trilogy if you have any faith in your film.
There's a real danger in doing a sequel. There are some benefits, but that all hinges on how well you execute. Quite frankly, most sequels don't execute well.
I don't like sequels at all. If the movie's good the first time, why bother?
I suppose sequels are inevitable for a writer of a certain age.
I never actually plan sequels. They demand to be done.
I don't know if I would do sequels. I almost feel like when I'm done with them, they're going to have to find their own way.
I think you kind of need to acknowledge that the reason why sequels do well is because people that loved the first one come back.
I think a sequel is a waste of money and time. I think movies should illuminate new stories.
I think sequels are fine if there's a story, so I think when there is a property that is worthy of a sequel, it could very well happen!
