24 March 2023 - good sequels

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

Why are sequels worse than the original? By reversion to the mean: They only make sequels of the best stuff, and it's rare to get lucky twice. People surely learn that sequels are worse, and avoid them to an extent. It's time to rehabilitate the reputation of sequels and get rich. Order up sequels of meh stuff, one or two will be great.
