I predict this will make twice the money that the first did.
Why, you may ignorantly ask?
Look at the world today - it's a dull dreary place. Back in the '80s when this legendary flick came out, it inspired people with its top notch action, incredible acting and kick ass shirtless beach volleyball. The world was a better place back then, not the miserable, boring cesspool it is today. This sequel - as long as Tom Cruise is attached to it - will not only break all sorts of box office records, it will make the world a better place.
So DarkHelmet, we going on a double date or what? Actually fuck it, let's not bring the women.
