Like I, you want a Brokeback Mountain II, yes a second film??

No, I wouldn't want a sequel to BBM anymore than I would want a sequel to 'Romeo and Juliet'. Some movies say what they intend to say and that's enough.
Artiste:
Thanks delalluvia!
Would you see such a sequel, if that was made?
Hugs!

No. It would be like trying to add on to perfection. Some things are signposts in life and this movie is one of them.
I have this personal quirk, if I think a movie/book/TV character has been through enough and there is a satisfying stopping point, I stop watching/reading/following the character. To me, this chosen point is where the characters' story ended and they disappeared into history.
One book series I loved is now at 7 volumes. I thought the characters suffered enough, had a happy landing at the end of book 3 and stopped reading. One movie series I loved I stopped watching at movie 2, The characters had suffered enough and deserved a happy ending.

Thanks delalluvia!
I can understand what you say. And accept that too!! And I do not want that neither! I prefer news!
However, if something is perfection... that is impossble, because we can only aim at that! Therefore, one remake, another movie or a serie, is needed. That does not mean that the main charactors need to be badly done! There are more positive points to Ennis and Jack that need to be presented, I feel!!
The film is too sad, so far!! And too abrupt!!
Plus, the violence is way too much!! Even that needs to be addressed, you know?
Awaiting you news,
hugs!!

I don't want a Brokeback II. The most important character died. What's the point? If there's a sequel, it should mirror the fanfic 'Once Was Lost'.
