Second movies are great because you can drop into them, and it doesn't really have a beginning on it, particularly in a traditional way. You can just tear into it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I didn't really want to do another sequel. I go to those movies, and I just sort of enjoy them like a viewer.
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 hope people will like 'The Conjuring 2' because I think it is a very natural and organic progression of the first movie.
I'm not big on sequels; I've done them, but I like doing little things that have their own timelessness to them, classic type things, and then you go onto something new.
The reason why Hollywood cranks out so many sequels and adaptations is because the audience is so overwhelmed with choices, the only way to get them in the theater is to give them something familiar.
I suppose the most fun I had was on the second film.
When you are making the one you are doing, you think it is the greatest film going. And then you do another one and it is a great film.
I don't like sequels at all. If the movie's good the first time, why bother?
I think a sequel is a waste of money and time. I think movies should illuminate new stories.
It's always scary when you're doing a sequel to a film, because you don't want to just repeat the first film in a different location like most sequels. You want to do something totally different, and something that actually expands the world of the main character.
