- CHRONICLE 2 BE THE SAME

| Chronicle |
Max Landis was the man who penned an incredible script for
probably one of thee most memorable superhero/POV film’s to date with
Chronicle. Given the films box office and critical acclaim, a sequel is really
a no brainer. However it would seem that Fox is a little upset with Landis approach
to the film. Instead of further exploring the mysteries left behind from the
first film, Fox is now demanding more of the same.

Max's father, producer John Landis, recently spoke to the controversy
surrounding Chronicle 2, as well as the artistic disagreements between the two
parties in question. "[Max] wrote a sequel, and it's amazing, and the
studio read it and said, 'We want Chronicle again!' And he said, 'No, this is
the sequel, it's the evolution,' and they said 'No, we want that movie again!'
So it's difficult, we're dealing with a difficult business," Landis told
The Playlist.
Last month at Stan Lee's Comikaze, Max Landis had expressed
his enthusiasm for the upcoming film and his plans to continue the found
footage story, which would have involved characters from the previous movie.
However, it now looks like Landis might not get his wish to
tell the story the way he wants to, as Fox is dead set on giving us more of the
same, which is a damn shame if you ask me. Landis out done himself with the
first film, why Fox don’t want him to make a sequel the way he wants to, is
beyond me.
So let me know what you think, do you want to see Landis
sequel the way he wants to do it, or do you want more of the same like Fox.
