The fans of the movie actually demanded a sequel. They were on the internet going crazy. I don't even go on the internet. I don't even know how all this stuff happens. But they wanted it and one the one hand that's good, because you know there's an audience.

Nicole PolizziWhen you know that something's going to happen, you'll start trying to see signs of its approach in just about everything.

Knowing the difference is the tricky part.

It was like, "Why do I feel one way when the reality is so different?"
Brigid SchulteAnd anyway, the truth isn't all that great. I mean, what's the truth? Planes falling out of the sky. Buses blowing up and ripping little kids into millions of pieces.
