Is this even about the couple from the first film??


Cos that was the sequel set-up - The guy took control of the alien body and managed to save his pregnant girlfriend, and now they have to fight their way out of the spaceship. If it's not even about them, then what's the point? Is the actress who played the girlfriend even in this?

No, this is obviously not going to be a sequel connected to the original Skyline: different director, a new story, entirely a new cast.

So yeah, I don't know what's the point, either.
Frank Grillo saving his son? Are you *beep* kidding me?

Could it be that this simply a different story line from the same invasion we saw in Skyline 1?

I'll be seeing this regardless because I adore the first Skyline, but am slight disappointed that this new film won't continue the storyline that ended the first film.

If you think about it though in that kind of invasion scenario there would be many kinds of different story lines involving different people that were abducted or looking for someone.

It would be cool if rogue drone Jarrod makes an appearance to tie the two stories together. There's so much potential to turn this into a lucrative film franchise.

Honestly the majority of the first movie I felt was pretty poor... Then in the last few minutes when he took over one of their bodies my immediate thought was oh my god this just got *beep* cool. Then the credits rolled..

If this doesn't continue that arc then wtf.
