    This week, we’re braving the beaks and feathers in a sequel no one really asked for — The Birds II: Land’s End.It’s part family drama, part Hitchcock homage, and part “why are these seagulls so angry?” energy.

    This week, we’re diving into a wild and often-forgotten sequel — The NeverEnding Story III. Yes, it’s the one with Jack Black, Barky the tree, and enough shopping montages to qualify as a 90s time capsule. And while this one didn’t hit U.S. theaters, it’s a ride that has to be seen to be believed (and you can still watch it free on YouTube 👀). We covered it all, including:🌳 Barky stealing every scene as everyone’s favorite wooden sidekick🎭 Jack Black absolutely crushing it as the over-the-top villain🪄 The jaw-dropping Jim Henson puppetry that still holds up today🛍️ Shopping montages galore (because why not?)✨ And plenty more sequel weirdness you won’t believe until you see it 🎥 Watch the full, unedited video review: sequelsonly.com/TNES3 🎭 Next Sequel: K-9 PI 🐾And for it, we’re talking with actor and photographer Matthew Bennett!Matthew shared stories about his journey into acting, working with Corey Haim on Just One of the Girls, his time on Battlestar Galactica, his love of photography, and so much more. 📲 Follow us everywhere @sequelsonly🌐 Visit our site: sequelsonly.com💬 And don’t forget to rate, review, and share with your friends, enemies, neighbors, exes… and even that one person who insists NeverEnding Story II is the best (we still love you, but come on).
