I'm torn regarding this new tradition in film-naming where you don't include a number to show that a film is a sequel. After all, in this time of constant reboots and re-envisioning of classic characters, someone who isn't in "the know" later on might come back and try to figure out if
The Amazing Spider-Man falls somewhere between
Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, or
Spider-Man 3. Does
Captain America:
The Winter Soldier take place after the most recent film, or does it somehow take place after
Captain America II: Death Too Soon?
I'm not being paid to think of the best way to name films, though (actually, I'm not being paid at all). Instead, I simply look at a movie I saw recently and discuss what I liked, what I didn't like, and explore a few of the ideas being presented. The film I saw this last weekend, complete with funky 3D glasses was Thor: The Dark World.
