anchorman two: a risk worth taking?

THERE IS A NEW ANCHORMAN COMING OUT.

YES. What could possibly be bad about another film in which Ron Burgundy plays the loveable/loatheable role of San Diego's main anchor?

Well, actually, a lot. I hope they do the predecessor justice and that they don't make a cheap imitation akin to the lamentable 'Pirates of the Caribbean 2, 3 & 4' or Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.'

I will be overjoyed if the next film has even an ounce of the quality (or ironic lack of) that anchorman one had; not to be desperately pessimistic but there is a strong possibility they could let us down.

I just don't want to be upset; anchorman is, after all, one of the best films of my generation.
