They’ll make it….JJ Abrams talks about doing things he cares about and not being dollar driven but the reality is that it’s a column A and B situation e.g Cloverfield made mirrions of dorrar so the sequel WILL get made…it’s just the matter of making it good.My 2 cents = it should be a theatrical retelling of the fateful attack, with backstory, parrallels to the original and explainations.
