The Fighter, The Franchise

[dnwilliams]

Irresistible cheesy pun alert:

It was a BIG HIT with audiences and critics and now Mark Wahlberg's awards CONTENDER may be back for ANOTHER ROUND.

The Fighter made over $100 million at the box office and gained Oscars for Christian Bale and Melissa Leo. Not bad considering the ups and downs the movie went through on the path to the big screen, cycling through cast members and directors. Presumably the award winning cast would reprise their roles.

It's not often biopics have more than one instalment, how do you feel about a follow up to The Fighter? Personally I'm hoping for a redux of the first movie, only this time it should be the musical [urlhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6gIc_8pXUI]it should have been in the FIRST place.[/url]

A sequel would be cool if done right and the chances for that are slim so I say leave it where it is.
