Opinionated? Me?: World War II: The Revenge

contact/review policy

Alright, I'm not a rules kinda gal. But I do, believe it or not, have some sort of policy on review request and offers. First off, my prefered genre's generally fall under every category but Romance and the real fluffy kind of Chick Lit (i.e. if the summary has the word 'sassy' or 'independent' anywhere in it, consider it blacklisted). Other then that, it's all far game. If it is a review copy, I will more then likely read and review it in a timely matter, though please keep in mind I'm a student and need to maintain some sort of social life (less people worry...). If you'd like to contact me, my email is:

danielleeloko78@aol.com.

I do check my email daily, so chances are I will get back to you sometime in the afternoon. I maintain right as a reviewer not to review a novel because a) I found it so disturbingly bad I think it best to save the author some face or b) I have fallen ill with some kind of Malarian disease and simply cannot move my wee little fingers.

World War II: The Revenge

Posted by D Swizzle at 1:15 AM

*this is a phrase coined by meh sister Erika*

Now, you all may be thinking to yourselves, "Self, this gal is outta her Vulcan mind." Why is World War II something to laugh at? Why is Auntie Danielle writing a blog post with clever word play turning one of the most destructive battle of pricks and gun powder into a sequel that nobody wanted?

Well, that's the thing.

It's the sequel that nobody wanted.

We all know 'em; that companion to a perfectly fine novel, that unnecessary "II" at the edge of your favorite movie logo, that horrible recasting and "Direct to DVD" sticker at the corner of the poster. Children run crying from the Bad Sequel. Bad things happen in the Bad Sequel.

Which leads me to this week's pole.

What is, exactly, the worst sequel in the history of entertainment? Book or movie, video game or TV spinoff--everything goes. Once more, what is the best?

Leave your two-cents (and I want good arguments, here!) and let me know!

Cheers,

Danielle

Jessica said...: Worst book sequel: The Pemberley Chronicles. It read like a junior high school girl's diary fantasy of what happens after the end of Pride and Prejudice.

Worst movie sequel (recently): Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. Just .... why?

Cheers, Jessica

1: Horrible. Revolting. My eyes are bleeding. Stop it. Now.

2: Bitch, please.

3: Few redeeming qualities, but they're there. No bleeding.

4: Pretty bad, but it's got something about it. Bleeding from paper cuts associated with lingering over pages wondering how something can be so cringe inducing.

5: Eh.

6: Very good.

7: Excellent. No bleeding.

8: Fantastic. Simply wonderful. I laughed, I cried. I did not bleed.

9: Sonuvabitch, so close to ten

10: Orgasmic. Bleeding from thrashing head over things as self-punishment for not discovering this item earlier in life. Everything pales in comparison.

Opinionated? Me?
