Following the success of The Ring and, more recently, The Grudge, a slew of Hollywood remakes of Japanese horror movies are in the pipeline. But audiences beware: These are not your typical monster-in-the-closet scary movies.

When Sam Raimi announced he was producing &quot;The Grudge&quot; -- an Americanized remake of the cult Japanese horror film &quot;Ju-On: The Grudge&quot; -- some fans (well, yours truly) wondered how Hollywood would handle the original&#39;s more baffling qualities.

Tycho:  Positive Sony news here, at Penny Arcade?  I know, right?  We shall redouble our efforts.  The story all this was based on has been changed to say that none of it is true, or that very little of it is true (depending on who you ask), but if you're asking me I think the original story hit pretty close to the mark.  The alternative - which is to say, that xFire technology would be used for a single game and no others - suggests that their service will be another briar patch of vendor "interpretations" of an online community, which can't possibly be true.  I refuse to believe that, in this generation, they would leave something like this to chance.

The sequel delivers all the stuff that made the original the best-selling game of all time, and adds a couple of nice touches. By the end, though, you realize the new version is just a tuneup of the old. Lore SjÃ¶berg reviews The Sims 2.

The sequel to the funny Meet The Parents falls short.

Everybody knows the sequel is rarely as good as the original. Why, if one considers sports movies alone, "Caddyshack II," "Rocky V," and, of course, "The Bad News Bears Go To Japan," were particularly fouled-up followups.

Desperate to propel a plot when chemistry doesn&#39;t work, this sequel puts its heroine through the wringer. Female viewers may feel similarly abused.

The follow-up to last year's hit game, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, offers more proof that sequels often pale next to the originals. While it boasts addictive gameplay and rich character development, the sequel suffers from numerous technical glitches. Game review by Suneel Ratan.

If Jane Austen were to write a sequel to &quot;Pride and Prejudice,&quot; I doubt it would end up anything like the new blockbuster (based on Helen Feilding&#39;s novel) &quot;Bridget Jones: the Edge of Reason.
