Forum Posts: 1364 Comments: 153 Reviews: 0 | Huh?? Is there any connection AT ALL between this and the first one? What, exactly, makes it "Street Kings 2" and not just "Another Cop Movie"? | ||

Forum Posts: 330 Comments: 131 Reviews: 0 | It sounds interesting - I like Liotta :). The film's premise is tailor made for sequels though, that don't have to have anything to do with Ludlow ;). | ||

http://www.moviesonline.ca/2011/01/street-kings-2-poster/ doesn't sound much like a 'sequel', but more like another story about cop corruption... | ||

Forum Posts: 491 Comments: 111 Reviews: 0 | Luca, you're right that if you read about the plot and so on it doesn't sound like a sequel but just another cop corruption story, but the fact that the title is the same plus an added 2, does make it a 'sequel'. What I don't understand is why they made it so - it could have been just 'Motor City' instead of 'Street Kings 2: Motor City'. Less misleading ... | ||

Forum Posts: 4842 Comments: 381 Reviews: 13 | I guess it's because they want to 'bank' on the relative success of the 'first' Street Kings. Especially since it's an straight-to-DVD-release. but otherwise, I don't see any connection but the poster :D
will watch it, though, if I can get the DVD. because I'm a movie buff and a curious cat. | ||

Forum Posts: 474 Comments: 6 Reviews: 0 | I don't understand: from what I could gather, Street Kings didn't do that great boxoffice wise. Why make a Street Kings 2? *givesup* | ||

Forum Posts: 4842 Comments: 381 Reviews: 13 | because even if SK didn't break the box office, it still rings a bell, and it had Forest Whitaker and Common and Chris Evans and Dr.House and... wouldn't you know? that Ted guy :D so why not hitch a ride on its coattails for a while, if possible? |
