I was slightly weary, just because you never know when it comes to a sequel. But I think the first one opened up enough avenues. There are many directions left to explore. There are many places that it can go, and they really - they held true to the spirit of the first one, but it's going to be enough of a departure that it doesn't just feel like a complete copy of the first one."
