Live Die Repeat and Repeat (Edge of Tomorrow 2) (1 Viewer)

Looks like this is progressing nicely. Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse have been hired to write. Christopher McQuarrie is working on the script with the writers and is in talks to come on-board as a producer. Doug Liman will return to direct and the article makes it sounds like Cruise and Blunt are in as well:

I *loved* the original film. It tied up all of its loose ends well and I'm unsure how a sequel would work, but this appears to be a hell of a team and I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Bring it on!

I really loved the movie too. I have no idea how you would do a sequel to this story as it seemed pretty complete, but I'm open to giving it a shot. Would love to pick up the 3D Blu at a reasonable price, but every time I check Amazon it's $35 or higher.

What is this movie? I've never heard of it. Is it related to Live, Die, Repeat?

 

[Jonathan Perregaux]

They should call the sequel Live, Die, Repeat with the tag-line "Edge... of Tomorrow!"

You're welcome, Tom Cruise.

So, a movie about a day that keeps repeating itself until the protagonist lears/fulfills/whatever, much like Groundhog Day, gets a sequel? About the next day, that doesn't repeat, or what?

 

[Lord Dalek]

Well Cage did get the alien blood back in his system at the end of the first one so they didn't leave it completely closed for a sequel.

I really liked this one too, completely underrated as far as I'm concerned. I'm not sure if the critics didn't like it much or they didn't market it, but I hadn't heard of it and saw it by accident - the power went out so the kids and I went over the closest theater that had power and saw the next film showing.

Anyway, I thought it wrapped up pretty well too and didn't demand a sequel, but I'm game.

 

[Sean Bryan]

Edge of Tomorrow was excellent.

I'd love to see another story involving the protagonists and the time repeat theme, though I have no idea where they will go with the story.

 

[Oliver Ravencrest]

I was surprised at how good EOT was. I'm up for a sequel, just hope it isn't a repeat of the first movie, story and villain wise.

It's been my experience that the best price for many movies is a few months after they've been released to disc, but after that they may go back up in price. I highly recommend camelcamelcamel dot com for monitoring prices on Amazon.

I missed the window on this one, but it also was never heavily discounted. I was able to get a similar Warner 3D title from the same period ("Godzilla 3D") for $10 new from Amazon last year, but Edge Of Tomorrow never dropped down that low. I think it was briefly at $19.99 but I didn't get it then, and now it's up so high I doubt it'll come down significantly again. So next time I feel like watching the movie I'll probably bite the bullet, but no rush.

Nah, they should call it "Blockbuster, Cruise, Repeat"

If you use the camelcamelcamel dot com website you're less likely to miss the good prices.

The film has received an official name, Live Die Repeat and Repeat (ugh), and it looks like things are moving forward:

[TravisR]

That name makes even less sense since the first movie isn't actually called Live Die Repeat.

You forgot the "and". Live, Die Repeat and Repeat.

Liman says it is a "prequel" of sorts. Wonder how that'll work.

Oops. Not enough coffee.

That movie mentions "all three core players" and I only remember two, Cruise and Blunt. After those two I think of Bill Paxton and we know he's not coming back. Whose the other?

They're including director Liman as one of the "three core players" in that context.

I LOVED Edge of Tomorrow. Hope this works.
The cast was GREAT.
