USA Today has some first look pictures of the Ben Stiller led sequel night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian. While I wasn't a big fan of the first movie, it had elements that I could see were attractive to kids, its main audience. I'm sure it will suck though, because Ben Stiller must continue his trend of coming out with a good movie, then following it up with a piece of shit.
Here's a bit from the article:
Stiller says returning for the sequel was a no-brainer. "I really had such a good time, and I liked this script — it's better than the first film. It's not just the comedy. It's the fantasy element."
Also returning: Robin Williams, Dick Van Dyke, Owen Wilson and Ricky Gervais. Newcomers include Christopher Guest, Hank Azaria, Eugene Levy, Saturday Night Live's Bill Hader and Enchanted's Amy Adams, who plays famed aviator Amelia Earhart, Daley?s romantic foil. "They have a screwball romantic comedy banter, and their friendship is the heart of the movie," Levy says.
Levy has high hopes for Museum 2, but he stops short of the word "franchise."
"There are rumblings of another installment," he says. "We would love to take this premise (further). But even to say there's a likely third film is premature.
"We're not going to jinx things."
