Looks like a focking bad movie

This may be old news, but I just heard that they're making another sequel to "Meet the Parents" called "Meet the Little Focker." Please, Dreamworks, don't do this.

"Meet the Parents" was funny. "Meet the Fockers" was terrible. It was a shameless attempt to capitalize on the success of a good movie. I believe the word is "formulaic"...it had all of the characteristics of a bad sequel: it basically repeated the plot of the original movie, repeated the jokes of the original movie, and fell short in both departments. The movie also didn't make sense:

At the end of MTP, didn't Dad and Greg make up? So why is Dad busting balls again?

Also, wasn't Dad really taken aback by Greg's interest in breast milk-pumping? Why would Dad then wear a fake milk-dispensing breast in MTF?

OK, so picking apart MTF is like shooting fish in a barrel of terrible movies. That being said, this trilogy has nothing left. The "Focker" joke was funny the first time around, it was annoying as a movie title. "Meet the Little Focker"...ha, ha...I get it.

Now put it back.
