Go catch up with this. Loving Tremors 2: Aftershocks!
"Maybe this is your big second chance..."
Everyone is rich and famous off the 1st Tremors but Earl, who lost his bit on an ostrich farm (and ostriches that won't fuck).
... that's gotta be Steamship Wilson writing about himself, right? 🤔
#Tremors2
"Earl Bassett, right?"
Earl nods.
"Yeah, see, I told you. That's the other one."
JESUS, man, you didn't have to put that IN THE SCRIPT! We all miss Kevin Bacon, but Christ, that's way on the nose 😳
On the other hand, it pretty effectively sympathizes a lone Earl 🤣

So this is kind of a Lost World conceit, I guess. Val and Rhonda are happily married (we guess; Earl gives lip service to her being "a good woman" and their ostensible rivalry from the first film), which I like. Why not, if they're not back?
Graboids...

And then I imagine this is, like, a franchise rule going forward:
"Stuff like this only happens in the middle of nowhere!"
I bet that's always true. Part of the vibe 🤩

Earl Bassett, a washed-up ex-celebrity, is hired by a Mexican oil company to eradicate a Graboid epidemic that's killing people each day. But, the humans aren't the only one with a new battle plan.

I'm being mildly disparaging, but aside from the dumb, porn-y Miss October thing, #Tremors2 is mostly making it work. It is much nicer to see Burt Gummer palling around with other characters in the same frame again.

I still totally care about these characters. I'm a little sad for Burt, even though I'm probably just as happy for Heather, who def has a new man by now if she wants one.

"They're getting smarter! That's what they do. They've got some kind of plan going on here..."
That tracks w/ what we already know. The #Graboids from #Tremors would be too smart to all get blown up sequentially by remote-controlled cars 🤓
#Tremors2 🧵
It's a lot of the same stuff, but there are also clever, pleasing subversions. If you're *going* to do a sequel (and you never should), this is how you competently do it, given limitations and strictures.
