Six

[TCB]

I need to switch over to my iPad.

[TCB]

A sequel sounds like an even worse idea than a Broadway musical.....

I don't see a problem with a sequel.  There was something like six or seven books, so there is plenty of material for another film.

[TCB]

I have now switched.

I wonder if the film will be based on one of the books or if it will be a completely new story...not that I've read any of the books.

I guess I didn't need to hurry.

That article said that Lin-Manuel Miranda would be playing a brand new character, so I assume the story will be new.

Ahh...I hadn't read anything about it, other than it was happening and who the two leads were going to be.

I just meant that there is plenty of room for more MARY POPPINS' adventures, since there were already several more books.  It is not like doing a sequel to HAMLET where the original work is complete (and everyone is dead).

Someone (perhaps Fred) posted a link to article about the new film.

[TCB]

Yes, it was Fred.

CNN said the sequel is happening in 2018:

Thanks for the link, Tom.  I was just about to search for it, myself.

[TCB]

My pleasure.

HAMLET was probably a poor example, but my mind went totally blank on great literary classics that were better examples.  I used to say that it was like doing a sequel to GONE WITH THE WIND, but then someone made one.
