My Early Thoughts on 2016 Films

I really enjoyed the first film. So I'm just hoping that it contains some of the cheesy action from the first, and has fun with it, instead of taking it too seriously.

Honestly, I just want this one to be as good as the first two. The teaser looked promising, and I think Bryan Cranston and J.K. Simmons will be fantastic as newcomers. Honestly, I don't think it's a question of whether I like it, it'll be a question of to what degree.

I haven't read the book, but the plot has me intrigued. Will it be any good? No idea, but I'm still going to check it out, just to satisfy my curiosity.

I love the first film, so of course I am to an extent excited, but also nervous. At the same time, the fact that so much time has passed, and the casting of Justin Bieber is making me wary. Fingers crossed.

Is another adaptation of this book really necessary? The Charlton Heston was so great, that I can't imagine anything else that could be done or be done better. Still, this is a great story, so I'm open to the idea, but I don't expect this to be fantastic.

Honestly, the teaser did not do much for me. I'm hopeful, considering that Disney has been on a roll since "The Princess and the Frog," however that streak is going to end sometime, and it might be this one.

Is Hollywood out of ideas? Yes. Still, I'm not going to bash it before I see it. Who knows, maybe this will surprise everyone like "The Lego Movie" did. Or it could be dumb and stupid and will be forgotten 5 years later. We'll just have to wait and see.

Annabelle wasn't a very good movie, and the critical bashing of "Sinister 2" a sequel to a horror film I really liked, was me wary. Still, I love the first film, and so I am hopeful that this will at least be good.

Was a sequel to this film necessary? I don't think so. At least, not 13 years later. Still, I'm willing to give it a chance. Though Pixar hasn't had much luck with sequels other than "Toy Story," and the fact that the film was heavily rewritten after the filmmakers saw "Blackfish," do have me worried. Still, I am curious to return to this world, and I'll still see it regardless of the critical response.
