Whoops, wrong Journey!

Looks like the $275 million and growing box office for JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND has guaranteed a third go round for the franchise.  New Line has locked in director Brad Peyton and screenwriters Brian and Mark Gunn for the film tentatively set for a 2014 release.

The first JOURNEY felt like a direct to video quality movie dressed up to cash in on the 3D fad.  JOURNEY 2 definitely had better effects but still lacked the quality I would like to see in a kid-oriented action movie.  Definitely a step up from SPY KIDS, but not quite there yet.  Let’s hope that Dwayne Johnson returns for the next film.  That guy can make pretty much anything entertaining.
