Donnie Darko II
Saw an advertisement for a sequel to Donnie Darko the other day. Anyone hear anything about this?

Sounds like a nice paycheck for someone. Not interested.

American Psycho 2, anyone? Yeah, sound like a cash grab hanging on by a very thin thread.

Blatant cash-in... Might work as a stand-alone time-travel brain-blag - it's a hope.

Exploit a sexy Hollywood flavour of the week? Check
Male lead that looks like Jake Gyllenhaal but obviously isn't? Check
Sexually suggestive shots? Check
Over-reliance on special effects? Check
Dump what made the first film in exchange for cheap thrills? Check
Straight to video release? Check
I'm guessing a 4.8 on the IMDB by the end of May
