Well, we have to take changing industrial codes into account when comparing "income" from movies. It's pretty spurious science. But, anyway, being an adaptation or a sequel doesn't bother me at all. In fact, I like 7 of these movies very much. I also fervently hate 2 of them and have mixed feelings about all the rest (except the few I haven't seen). I think it's more interesting how many of them are what I would think of as speculative fiction.

Ok, if you all are going to break out the measuring stick, could you please do it in the closet? We eagerly await reports, of course.
