When I saw the commercial, I almost died. A sequal to the Mask? "No way," I thought. "Why would they do that?"
Oh, but I was wrong--it is real. Real and scary. Not "scary" as in horror, but scary as in horrible. Sure, I loved "The Mask" from ten years ago (twas my first exposure to the man called "Jim Kerry"), but this is just sad. "The Mask" by any rate was PG-13 (kind of like Shrek 2), but back then there was only PG and R. Now this...this thing they call a sequal is rated PG?
Sequals have gone too far!

They had PG-13 10 years ago. Ace Ventura was PG-13. Jamie Kennedy's in it anyways, that usually means automatic suck right there...except for Bowfinger.

Isn't it Jim "Carrey"? Also, yeah. Looks like crap to me.

a sequel without Carrey isnt a sequel at all.

Unbelievably crappy. Next thing you know there'll be a "Son of Ace Ventura", "Son of Animal House", or maybe "Son of Indiana Jones."

I think I can guarantee that this "movie" will rub shoulders with "Plan 9 From Outer Space" at the crappy movie convention. Someone had to suck a lot of willie to get this idea past the producers.

How,just how does crap like this actually make it out? Why does stuff like this get funding when scripts a million times better are submitted every day?

Sequals have gone too far!

Also, if you wanna talk out sequels going too far, let's have a little chat about Terminator 4 shall we? Now...I liked T3, I thought Jonathan Mostow did a great job, but now they're making Terminator not only without Arnold, but without Nick Stahl as well. Now I'm extremely skeptical about this movie, even though I am a hardcore Terminator fan. I could deal with the loss of Cameron, I mean he's great and all but Mostow was a pretty damn good director in the first place, I'm not saying he replaced Cameron, he just did a good job filling in. But nobody can fill in Arnold's shoes. You can't name it Terminator and not have Arnold in it, that just is flat out W-R-O-N-G

yea i thought it looked crappy too. "the mask" is one of those movies that you shouldn't even consider making a sequel to, even though it was good, there was no real story that they didnt completely wrap up in the first movie. although i guess some people who really liked the first one might want to see what happens to the mask and who gets it next, this is just dumb. i wouldnt have imagined the mask sequel being this retarded. im sure i could go on and on about this, but i will stop here for now.
