I'm back! Welcome to season two of Life Through the Big Screen. In this episode I spend a few minutes gushing over Tom Cruise and his newest adventure, Top Gun: Maverick. 

And speaking of, I felt it was appropriate to dive into the world of sequels and franchises to open up this second season of my show. I compare the sequels we grew up with from the 80's and 90's to the ones made today, and ask which ones are better. Have studios learned how to continue a story? 

I don't name every franchise, but I'll touch on the Beverly Hills Cop trilogy, Thor, Jurassic Park/Jurassic World, Mission: Impossible, Bill and Ted, Toy Story, Scream, and a few others. 

From there I give a little preview into the season you're about to embark on and point out the underlying - and unintentional - theme of the next five episodes.
