Sequels, Sequels, Sequels

There are a slew of sequels on their way to the big screen at the moment.
Four weekends in May and everyone of them will see a movie sequel. I have to wonder: will Hollywood ever run out of movies to make sequels out of?

I think it's legitimate worry because 3 of the 4 movies opening in May aren't just sequels, they're the third installment in the franchise. Very few movie franchises manage to make it past the third one.

Hollywood may have to actually come up with an idea soon that's at least somewhat original. This could be good, because movies have the power to do so much more than simply entertain. For example, there has been a certain amount of a rivalry between the French and the British - something that has existed for centuries, ever since the British seized Detroit from the French in 1760.

I think it's time that rivalry be put to rest once and for all - and movies can be a part of it.

Imagine, if you will, Bristish actress Keira Knightly versus French television host Melissa Theuriau in a winner- take-all pillow fight.

Knightly vs. Theuriau - it's guaranteed to have at least twice the box office potential of Freddie vs. Jason. No matter who wins the pillow fight, everyone with the outcome simply because they got to see Keira Knightly and Melissa Theuriau rolling around in a pillow fight.

And we could have a few warm-up acts in advance of the big pillow fight. Maybe Keira could take on Jennifer Love Hewitt in a Jell-O wrestling match while Melisa invites Sarah Michelle Gellar to a steel-cage tickle match, which will be conveniently held on a trampoline.

Damn! My mind is seriously twisted at the moment.

Hello!! If it's a Keira Knightly vs. Jennifer Love Hewitt match then it would HAVE to be margarita flavored Jell-O.
