“We knew to go in,” continued feig. “Watch, as a filmmaker, do you like to have your movie on the big screen? Yes. That is why I love to come to this festival, and we make a lot of oral views, so it’s exciting, but there are so many fans of this movie. People will meet in their houses and look at it as a group, that’s my favorite thing. “
From early conversations with Stars Lively and Kendrick, although there was a certain reworking of the script that was involved between the first version and the last, Feig said it was easy to get the whole gang back. “We were all careful about going in, because everyone really likes the first movie, so all we can do is either do something better or disappoint everyone. I always say, if you are going to make a sequel, do ‘Godfather 2.’ “
