Its obvious that people taste changed.

The first one came before The Dark Knight and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Yeah, it wasn't nearly as good as the first. The short JGL storyline was better than any of the other mediocre stories in the movie.

It also felt much longer than it was.

But oh well, Eva Green naked was worth it.

I haven't seen it yet, is it really that good? I'm kind of surprised its doing so well, I thought because it wasn't really a well known thing outside of the comic book community that it might not do well.

After it, I actually felt compelled to rewatch the first one just to make sure my memories of it weren't soaked in nostalgia.

They weren't, it's awesome.

God, no. It had horrible marketing. I had no clue it was out until I heard about the online reviews.

That is partly what I mean I saw only one commercial for it.

Did it have a fair chance? Of course it did, people just aren't interested.

The marketing could have been better, but I doubt it would have helped a whole lot. That style was big years ago I don't think the general audience is into it anymore add in a bigger marketing budget would have put it further in the hole.

They waited waaayyy too long to do a sequel. And it wasn't close to being as good as the original,plus the continuity was all out of wack.

No it just didn't capitolize on its success. The art style has been used for other programs as well. Also it just didnt feel like the right time for that movie to come out. Thats more of a after Janurary type movie or a movie before the summer. Not md summer commenting against Disney Giants franchises

Honestly, I didn't like the first one that much, and I heard this one was worse, so I didn't bother seeing it.

It got 3/4 stars on the only professional review site I bother reading, and I enjoyed the first, so I'll probably check it out on dvd. The only problem was they waited far too long for a sequel, the interest wasn't there.
