Rush's appearance was by far the most electifying moment in P2. I'm still planning to get to P3.
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'm pretty much with ita. I think that 1. The first movie was not a blockbuster. I'm not even sure "cult hit" is accurate. 2. Again: four years between movies. 3. It had a title that doesn't exactly alert people that it's a sequel. Which may have been intentional, all things considered.
And yeah, the only people who would care about production credits are already patrolling AICN or reading Fangoria or whatever. You really don't need to make an effort to keep them informed.

Oh my god I have been saying that about zombie animals for YEARS. Seriously. Ryan North has been eavesdropping on my conversations and totally ripped me off for his comic. That bastard!
...Except instead of going to insects, I usually argued in favor of zombified versions of domesticated animals. Zombie horses! Zombie cows! Zombie sheep, going "Baaaaah-rains!"

I want to run out and see everything Naomie Harris has ever done.
She was in an adaptation of Zadie Smith's White Teeth that I saw on TV a few years ago, but now I can't find a region 1 DVD anywhere. But if you ever manage to track it down, I loved it, and Naomie Harris was fantastic in it.

You haven't seen the trailer for BLACK SHEEP yet, have you?

Sadly, no. But I'm certainly aware of it!

I think my lack of enjoyment for 2 was, in addition to rolling my eyes at over-the-top tributes to King Kong, the absence of Geoffrey Rush.
This is exactly what my DH said. Without, you know, having seen PotC3.

Now, how can I work this into a joke for my MidEast specialist friends?

3. It had a title that doesn't exactly alert people that it's a sequel.
Isn't that sort of following in the footsteps of the original? I expected it to be a romantic dramedy sequel starring Sandra Bullock until I read the plot details.

Heh, I kept having that problem. Plus I'd forget which movie was which.
Me: "I watched 28 Days."
Johanna: "Really?
Why?"
Me: "What do you -- oh, sorry. 28 Days Later."
