I just want to know why?

Even though I hated it, SAW made over $100 million worldwide and I can totally see why they made a sequel. SAW II is on its way to take in over $100 million domestically, so I'm sure there'll be a SAW III. It's when a movie sucks AND does poorly at the box office that I question the logic of doing a sequel. And when that sequel bombs, why not let the franchise just die instead on wasting money on what's sure to be a disastrous third part? Case in point:

Constantin Film and Davis Film announcing plans to produce a third big screen installment in the Resident Evil franchise titled Resident Evil: Afterlife, following the heroine's battles to save humanity from the Undead, a race of human clones.

Unvbelievable! What are they thinking?! Guess it really is all about the DVD sales.

Well, at least we get more Milla...

well

I actually liked it...a cool visualized no-brainer about zombies and Mila in the lead...

I loved both movies...so I am eager to see the third installment since part two left me with somewhat of an open ending...just like part one...

btw...
I saw SAW and while I liked it fairly it was a bit much on the gore-side for me...

Nice twists though...

Hey C.B.

I didn't like the first SAW but was relatively entertained by the second. It's a rare example of how a franchise improves upon itself. I wouldn't have any problems with seeing a 3, although, I would approach it with caution. One thing I DO like about SAW as a whole is that they aren't shy about what they're offering. They've thrown plausability out the window and just run with it. Kudos to that even though some may hate the movies.

As for Rez Evil. No thanks.
