Few people have a dedicated player, but there are still plenty of video game consoles (PS3-5, XBox 360/One/S|X, Wii U?), which make great bluray/DVD players. We’ll see how the next generation of consoles turns out, given how hot these companies are to cut out physical media altogether.

My worry after reading that brief blurb is that Cillian would be in the first movie for ~10 minutes, basically just to pass the torch onto the new protagonist(s), who this trilogy would be centered around.

I’m tired of all these “pass the torch” movies, and I’m worried they’re using the long rumored/joked about “28 Years Later” to start a trilogy, rather than close out a trilogy.

I’ll wait and see how it turns out it. 28 Days Later is one of those rare movies where I actually disliked it the first time I saw it but ended up watching it again a few days later and loved it.

It isn’t really anything new. You have the classic quote:

I have never seen it (Jaws 4) but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built and it is terrific.

But yeah, it definitely feels more frequent that there’s no passion beyond getting a paycheck or a free trip to exotic locales with their pals.
