Abrams talks about ‘Cloverfield’ Sequel
J.J. Abrams and his crew of lively ‘Cloverfield’ co-creators are toying with ideas for another ambiguously mysterious massive monster movie, be it a sequel or perhaps a follow-up.
During a promotional junket in San Fran while at WonderCon, Abrams let the following information loose upon the civilians:
“We’re working on one right now,” Abrams said on Saturday (Feb. 28). “The key obviously is with a sequel, certainly with this film, is that it had better not be a business decision. If you’re going to do something, it should be because you’re really inspired to do it. It doesn’t guarantee anything and it doesn’t mean that it’s gonna work, but it means you did what you did and not because you’re trying to make a buck. We have an idea for something that’s pretty cool that we’re playing with. It’s something that would be related to ‘Cloverfield’ and hopefully we’ll do something sooner than later, because the idea’s pretty sweet.” — Courtesy of HitFix.com
So, what do you think? Personally, my little respect-o-meter just went up a few notched for Mr. Abrams based solely on his comments around why anyone should even pursue making a sequel. Is this something you’re looking forward to? Should he let it go and do something new? Let us know what you think by leaving comments on this post.
