Didn't want to see the 2nd one, and I really don't intend on seeing this one either. The Coreys got worse at acting as they got older. National Lampoon's Last Resort is a perfect exmaple, or what about Feldman in Bordello of Blood...yikes. Only reason I watched Blown Away was to see Nicole Eggert naked, since I've crushed on that girl pretty much my young adult life. In my eyes, The Lost Boys is the only film.

Obviously those numbers are completely made up, but considering how many OTHER types of movies come out compared to the relatively small number of Comic book movies, I wouldn't say Hollywood is putting all their eggs in one fanboy basket. There are plenty of other movies too. You do realize that while there may be 4-5 hero movies in the works each year there are about 20 horrors, and 30 comedies, and 50 dramas?

Putting asses in the seats is what Hollywood does. You ARE a huge audience. Hollywood has always made the decision to make a film based on the likelyhood that it will sell. Giving you what you want sells. This isn't rocket science. Fans would be likely to go see something that appeals to them.

While I think Agnus Sutherland could have dyed his hair blond and could have been a resurrected David (the part played by his older half-brother in the original) the filmmakers didn't go there. I don't know if the new film will be any better or worse. But after witnessing 2, part of me is glad scribe Hans Rodnikoff isn't back. And as much I liked his directorial debut <em> The Desperate Trail</em> a number of years ago (and even a soft spot for <em> From Dusk Til Dawn 3</em>), I have pretty much given up on PJ Pesce as well.

Once we get past hat then why not make Sam a vampire. Part two was watchable and didn’t make me cringe but it in it’s self is an insult to the original.
