Joblo had a podcast today where they took on an early screening of EX2. Here's the link to the audio. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. We know based on other reviews by hardcore fans who'd seen it at Camp Pendleton, EX2 is simply awesome.
I actually felt the first movie was a bit TOO serious. The best parts in the first movie were the one liners and explosions (Dolph's "warning shot" has got to be one of the greatest moments in movie history), so if the 2nd movie feels less "serious" and more "cartoony" by giving us more of those two things, then that'll only make me happier. This is supposed to be an over-the-top throwback to the 80's action movies, just like Indiana Jones and Star Wars were throwbacks to the old film serials. If they decided to go totally insane with this movie and simply provide everything we want cranked up to 11 into ridiculousness, then that'll only enhance the enjoyability of the film. Can't wait to see it!
