No,no,no,no... >_<

I always get terribly apprehensive when I read something like this. I know, it is in the nature of todays market driven culture to always try and add more layers to already closed stories after they are successful, but it doesn't help to understand, it's not a good feeling.

It was the same with the Rebellion movie. The series was good as it was. Complete story, closed. Then, they managed to find a good continuation on a conceptual level (it fits so well that I can actually believe it was planned from the start) and made it into a good-ish movie. Don't misunderstand; I enjoyed the heck out of Rebellion. It was an awesome experience, but aside from the concept, I felt that the story was terribly rushed and not well explained. Logically it was somewhat consistent, but that's all.

And now, it's the same thing, all over again, and this time I can't think it's part of the original part. This is clearly a continuation just because it was successfull. I will watch it, I will most probably enjoy it on some level (I'm a sucker for shaft's visual style, so at least the visuals are bound to be good), but damn, I positively fear what they will be doing to the story.
