This reminds me of another franchise that took 10 years to release a sequel. Kurt Russell plays the role of Snake Pliskin in these two movies separated by 15 years. Directed by John Carpenter, you remember what they were, Zach? That's right. Escape from New York and Escape from LA. John Carpenter also directed The Thing which was based on a film with a similar title from 1951. As fate would have it, a prequel to John Carpenter's 1982 version of The Thing would be released in 2011. Do you see it, Zach? 30 years in between each movie. Life is full of little surprises isn't it?
