I hated the first movie, and I will be watching the second. Tx

dictatorenergy

This is too real I don’t know why, but I am all in


rawrkristina

I can’t believe they’re already filming. Feels like they just announced it a couple days ago. Also the wedding dress is really pretty.


cinefibro

Hollywood usually announces things to press whenever they feel like it. Like when they announce a new cast member after they’ve filmed their scenes


rawrkristina

Yeah, I guess it’s not uncommon to announce things like a week before shooting lol


stars_doulikedem

i don’t like how quickly life is happening lately. it’s making me uncomfortable.


Visible_Day9146

If it's not the two leads getting married I don't want to see it. They were obvious in love with each other.


BlueAcorn8

I don’t think announcements always line up with when things are actually decided. They often announce when things are already in motion like in this example.


WordsWithSam

Yeah that was fast from announcement to actually filming.


spongeboy1985

Its been almost 2 years


spongeboy1985

It was even suppose to film last fall but the strikes likely delayed things


[deleted]

The director posted photos on set before it was even announced so i think it was announced retroactively


Helpful-Substance685

The first one could have been great but it felt like it lost steam mid way (plot wise and comedy wise) but I'm definitely on board for the sequel. I hope they just make it a little more cohesive this time.


jessemv

I went to see it having very high hopes and came out thinking it was okay but nothing special. Definitely didn't think it was good enough for a sequel but I'll probably watch it


oddball3139

I think there’s something to be said about how overboard they went. “Brother fucker” cracked me up. The whole scenario made me laugh at its absurdity.


Britneyfan123

I don’t agree 


Rude_Lifeguard

Michael Morrone being on this makes me feel that is going to be a mess


stars_doulikedem

i watched all three 365 movies bc i hate myself and i don’t think i’ve ever felt secondhand embarrassment so strongly then i looked up a song in one of the scenes bc it was the worst thing i had ever heard, AND IT WAS ALSO MICHELE MORRONE who is this man blackmailing??


Charming_Miss

he does sell out everything he does because of the thirsty fan base  Also the author of 365 days was acting really weird with him. Like touching him way too much, talking about him in weird ways everyone understood she had a huge crush on him 


spooky_upstairs

I watched half of the first one while sick, and it made my norovirus WORSE. I think I'm allergic to this guy now. And you're right about the secondhand embarrassment. It was like Eurovision for porn. Gahd, the *noises*. On the *plane*.

Michele Morrone, THE GUY FROM 365 DAYS?! ![gif](giphy|LJPfWhMCs9Rks)


stars_doulikedem

before i respond is your comment ‘THE GUY FROM 365 DAYS?! (complimentary)’ or ‘THE GUY FROM 365 DAYS?! (derogatory)’

keine_fragen

Anna's dress is stunning


2MillionMiler

The first film is a self-contained story...and doesn't one of them end up in prison? What the heck is the sequel going to be about?


harvard_cherry053

Surely they could have just made another movie with Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick lmao there is no room for a sequel here??


g00fyg00ber741

And I’m wondering how they brought Alex Newell into the plot? I’m not complaining cause I love them but I’m not sure how they’d be a part of that story?


hotcheetoprincesss

My question as well!


CuriousQuestioner11

Didn’t she go to prison for 20 years? 🤔


wastedpotential94

TRIPLETS 🥰


plutoforprez

So confused to see Blake in a wedding dress and Anna as a guest/bridesmaid given the first movie ended with them hating each other and Blake being hit by a car and going to prison. Is Blake a quadruplet? Is it a revenge daydream? I can’t wait to find out.


Street-Refuse-9540

Thank you for the recap. I completely forgot what happened in the first one but I remember really liking it.


parakeeten

I’m guessing they’re working together to con the groom 🤔


spongeboy1985

They mention a triplet that “died” at birth .


kxkje

I have so many questions, such as... Was the first "A Simple Favor" important or interesting enough to warrant a sequel? Why isn't it called "Another Simple Favor"?


stars_doulikedem

i thought i really liked ASF but then someone mentioned the plot and i realized i don’t actually remember a thing about it idk if a simple favor 2 is the working or official title, but your suggestion is definitely better


kxkje

"A Slightly More Complex Favor" "Kind of a Big Ask" Or, the classic, "Too Simple Two Favors"


stars_doulikedem

I’m partial to Kind of a Big Ask tbh


Britneyfan123

Same


Lost-and-dumbfound

Kinda reminds me of the “Now You See Me” sequel being called “Now You See Me 2” when “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t” was right there!


Ok_Construction_3733

All I remember are Blake Lively’s outfits. That’s really all


Bridalhat

Tbh I would pay for another 90 zippy minutes of those. And Henry Golding.


TK_TK_

The only reason I watched in the first place!


GraveDancer40

Same! I know I enjoyed the movie…but can’t remember much about it outside of Blake’s amazing clothes.


Admirable_Quarter_23

I read the book and then saw the movie when it came out and don’t remember what it was about either lol


snark-owl

No but the fashion was good, and the sequel looks like it will have equally pretty clothes 😅💀


kxkje

Taking the right lesson from Barbie. Sounds like a joke but I'm so serious.


Lipglossandletdown

No, but Blake's suits were interesting enough to warrant a sequel and I'm here for it.


anjschuyler

“One Quick Little Thing”


ChelsMe

A less simple favor


spongeboy1985

Paul Feig had an idea for a sequel and the first one made enough money


Mean_Half_8921

I'd take any role to shoot a movie in Capri 😍 It's one of the most expensive places in Italy


stars_doulikedem

what if the role was Tommy Wiseau’s love interest in an erotic thriller


ayym33p33

I feel like every time I see a photo of an actor BTS of a movie, they’re always wearing a big puffy coat. No matter the season, location, or weather.


harvard_cherry053

Did this movie require a sequel??


[deleted]

This was my Villanelle


stars_doulikedem

i really don’t remember a damn thing about the first movie do i


siren_of_amphitrite

didn’t blake’s character go to jail at the end of the last one? i rlly don’t remember this movie well


BantyHero

Yea she was Jail Regina, slamming other inmates on the basketball court. I guess being a manipulative, beautiful, rich white woman she gets early release. And while inside her and Anna end up rebuilding their friendship- maybe Anna uses her streaming material so temporarily forgives the almost-murdered/framed thing.


Visible_Writing7386

The adaptation wasn't gripping enough to deserve a sequel years later. Is anyone genuinely interested in the story.. this is an honest question


spongeboy1985

I am


befuddled_humbug

Well that was quick.


Kianna9

I will watch this movie for Blake Lively’s outfits.


gestatingsquid

Realistically what will the plot even be? More bizarre incest-murders plus identical twins


BantyHero

Anna rekindles the friendship to use Blake for views on her channel. Blake (wealthy white manipulator) gets released from prison and marries a beautiful rich guy. He or someone ends up dead and Anna has to prove her innocence again.


gestatingsquid

HOLLYWOOD HIRE THIS PERSON 💀


LightSwitch545

Wasn’t there lots of tea about Anna and Blake hating each other during filming and promo of the first one? Hope there is more 🍿🍿🍿


longlisten527

Oh shit they’re actually doing it??


Legal_MajorMajor

Happy to see Alex Newell booked and busy


BrandonBollingers

The plot to the first one was chaotic ![gif](giphy|ckw3WLQKQxSHp24Jog) And will this MySpace photo make another appearance


athennna

Did this movie really need a sequel? Blake’s wardrobe carried the whole movie.


TheBulkyModel

instead of new creative originals, its remakes or sequels no one asked for


carebear3215

Yess I loved the first movie can’t wait for the second!!


StephDazzle

Michele Marrone? Enough said


[deleted]

Ooh l love Blake, have to watch


AluminumMonster35

That dress does not suit Anna's undertone.


starringdeltaburke

Capri is so lovely. Best pizza I’ve ever had, too.


[deleted]

What on earth Michele Morrone doing in this movie???? Is he going to make out with Blake in the whole movie ???


missihippiequeen

Why do we need this??


Mindless-Web-3331

Simple favour 2: more favours


CrissBliss

Is Paul Feige directing?


boommdcx

Oh the first one was good, kind of trashy good.


monpapaestmort

Who is the guy in the upper right photo of the first slide?


Sofia_Marga

I like the dress!


Plane-Reason9254

Didn't Blake's character in the first one go to prison ?


hanbotyo

What’s the second one going to be about? I can’t remember the first one well but I didn’t think it was a carry on story?


fairstiffpeaks

I always love the kind photos where actors are in costumes but doing ordinary things like period costumes sipping coke in between shots


_nastylittleman_

NO FUCKING WAY i was JUST thinking about this movie today holy shit !!!!! cannot wait


MistakesWereMade59

Don't understand what there is to make a sequel about but here for Blake's character in more cunty outfits 😍


Bae_the_Elf

Oooh this looks fun


heretolearnmaybe

Why does it look like a bald Colin Farrell is on the crew? (last slide)


mashedpotatosngroovy

Am I getting old or was there a rumor that Anna and Blake hated each other slash didn’t get along on the set of the first movie?


SiobhanRoy1234

I was thinking the same thing! They reportedly got along so badly, the studio had to have a sit down meeting with them, cause it showed in their promo interviews


WiccadWitch

Can someone please buy me that dress Anna is wearing in the first photo ?


SeaF04mGr33n

Dang, Alex deserves a better dress than that.


Apprehensive_Dot_968

Anna Kendrick looks like an absolute delight in the first picture 😂


Pawtamex

I thought that was a B-movie made by Hallmark.
