The second sequal to the legendary film 'Elizabeth' premiered early last september and got director, Shekhar Kapur toying with the idea of producing a third film to the sequal. The story of Elizabeth deals with love, sacrifice, betrayal and most of all survival. It was brilliant and won a truck load of awards. I was thrilled at the news of a second film, but a third? The Australian in their report, titled Third movie planned for Elizabeth proclaimed that the third film would address how Elizabeth, as a model in her time, faced the concepts of morality. It will put forward the idea that if you get to the top, and suddenly are going to die, you become average, ordinary by dying, because everybody dies. In my opinion the third film already sounds like a pile of crap. This is Elizabeth we are talking about. The woman who opposed and saw victory over every man who stood in her way, a woman with pride, strength and an iron fist. She is not the woman who cries over age lines nor worries about her popularity status after death, but a woman who is content with a just and dutiful reign. Which is why I'd prefer that we leave her at a powerful point after the second sequal rather than deminishing her with an over-stretched, flimsy third installment.

Elizabeth II yay! Elizabeth III nay?
