Today we’re welcoming a SPECIAL GUEST to our weekly Roundtable: Mike Falzone! br He’s adding his valuable opinion to our analysis of movie trailers, movie franchises… among other things. br br Isn’t Mike Falzone great? Yup, he’s a funny guy! Subscribe to his channel: br And follow him on the Twitters: br br So, this week saw the release of a trio of trailers for movies that are installments in larger series: br br Insurgent (Sequel to Divergent; Prequel to Allegiant Part 1!): br There’s certainly a lot going on in this trailer, but most of it seems to consist of fire, and Shailene Woodley being a badass. br br The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies: br This movie Part 3 of the adaptation of one book, and is the conclusion of the prequel trilogy to The Lord of the Rings Movies. Which basically makes it Lord of the Rings Part Negative One. Right? br br And Fifty Shades of Grey: br This movie is the first installment in a hopeful 3 (4?) part series, based on a series of novels which were adapted from Twilight Fanfic. So, this movie is Twilight Part 1i (HA! Math joke!) br br All three trailers raise questions about the state of movie franchises, sequels, prequels, movie series… and, let’s be honest, kinky movie sex and porn.
