Sequels

Since there have been so many sequels coming out in theaters recently shanna and I decided that before we were allowed to go see them in the theaters we had to watch all the previous films in the series. It all started with the "Fast and the Furious" series. It was so much fun to see how all the characters intertwine. We also discovered that the "Tokyo Drift" one was completely off track- come on, kill Han and then you see him in the next 2 films, death doesn't work that way Hollywood. Sorry!
The next film series we did this with was the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies. We took so long starting that series that we ended up seeing the 4th movie several weeks after it came out.
Tonight we started on the "Harry Potter" series, the last movie comes out on 7/15, so we are going to really squeeze them in to see them all before it comes out. We are also going to start the "Transformers" series as it comes out before the last "Harry Potter" film, but it has fewer movies so we start that next week.
We are lucky that two of the other films that we want or wanted to see are prequels so there are nothing to catch up on.
Those are "X-Men: First Class" and "The Rise of the Planet of the Apes." It's a good thing too since "Harry Potter" and "Transformers" are going to provide us with all the entertainment till the end if July.
