Sequel to the first National Treasure. I loved the first one, a great adventure type movie, with plenty of wit and excitement as well. Hard to find them these days. I hope this one is just as good!

No Trailer yet, FYI.

    Sweet. I really really enjoyed watching the first one, too (just saw it last night on TV again, too).

    Not sure where they'll go with this next one, as I didn't think it was obvious from the first one there was going to be a sequel, but I'm excited about it!

    I'm glad to see Diane Kruger is in the second one; she's very beautiful, imo.

    If I remember correctly, on the DVD in the in the features section I think it was Nic Cage said that they had to changed the ending because thay had no intentions of making a second one and the original ending kinda left it open to a part two. I think that the original ending is in the deleted scenes section.

    Not yet, but I have seen it a couple of times on the trailers for Blu-Ray on some BD disc. They will probably release some sort of directors cut or EE version when the new comes out.

    Well, just saw it. If you liked part one (like I did) then you'll probably like this one cause its almost the exact same movie with a few new characters and a couple of new tricks.

    Not sure how good the movie is supposed to be, but my brother-in-law co-wrote and co-directed the cartoon short that plays before the movie--"How To Hook Up Your Home Theater."

    Didn't see the first one, but will get out to see this one so as to catch Goofy in action.

    Let me know if you liked the short!

    It's been awhile since I got to watch a cartoon before the movie. I thought it was pretty funny. I also liked the movie. I'd say it was on par with the first.
