The Neverending Story II: The Next Chapter

[Movie-Brat]

Even by Fantasy standards, it doesn't make sense.

[Poipoi]

Plus, why an ocean of acid?

I think they ripped that idea from Warriors of the wind ( also know as Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind).

[Movie-Brat]

At least with Miyasaki, it makes sense given the location. With this film, it just raises questions. Hell, I can sum up the entire film with this line said by Bruce Wayne.

"It just raises too many questions."

[The Dude With the Glasses]

I insist: just read the review. It tries to makes sense out of (and/or makes fun of) a lot of the points you adressed, such as Bastian's fear of heights and the acid river.

I know I have questions...

" what kind of GPS system should a luck dragon get? "

" Why is Atreyu lil more wussy then the first movie? "

" How does the child like Empress say so slim? "

Already read that yesterday actually. My only problem is that it's too short.

[Hewylewis]

What the hell happened to the Childlike Empress? I mean her age, her face...and that HAIR!!!

[Movie-Brat]

She looks like Princess Leia, I'll tell you that.

[Poipoi]

She looks like Princess Leia, I'll tell you that.

Yeah! I thought she looked like a familiar icon.

[Movie-Brat]

Gotta love it when a bad movie rips off an actual good one.

[bole]

I love how only one actor returns from the first film. Not even the guys that played Atreyu and Bastian come back.

I never understood why when Bastian gets into Fantasia and learns what happening, he doesn't just wish for it all to stop

And why are a swim team practicing driving?

Ploy convenience! That sums it all up.

Yeah, that's a good thing. Why didn't he think of that?

Because Bastian is an idiot.

The agonizer review makes it clear.

[Movie-Brat]

I mean, he basically controls what the fuck happens in Fantasia. He could've wished everything to stop. He's like a God there.

[greybob]

He's Haruhi Suzumiya!

Gah, I'm such a dork.

[Movie-Brat]

He's Haruhi Suzumiya!

Gah, I'm such a dork.

Exactly. He's Haruhi Suzumiya.

[Kazs1492]

I saw this one when I was 13 or 14 I believe. I thought it was just OK. It's not as bad as the Third one.

[moviebuffmel90]

You know, besides the third film, how about that the second film gets the NC treatment as well. I mean, when you look at the second film, wouldn't it make you guys say "Didn't they already say what they had to say with the first movie?"

Well, at least give the kid some credit in the first scene at the pool. At least he isn't wearing something that would expose a pacakge. *shudders*

[Movie-Brat]

Yeah, I'll agree with you there.

But I have this question about Bastian, why is he that afraid of a diving board to the point of picturing niagra falls? Isn't that too over the top?
