...here the relative freedom a sequel can bring. The first film in a series is like an awkward first date. Once they are past the getting-to-know-you stage, writers can flesh out characters they could only sketch in the initial film. Any critic could name a fistful of follow-ups that outshone originals: The Bride of Frankenstein; The Good, the Bad and the Ugly; The Road Warrior; Aliens; Batman Returns. In TV, improving with age is the norm: a good sitcom, whether Mary Tyler Moore or South Park, ripens in its third or fourth season. Films used...
...kidnappings and assassinations that make life in Iraq a fearful hell. Winning "that game" is Job One for Iraq's leaders. The very way the new government took power underscores the need.

But to date the birth of rock to his work is to deny those that came before him, not just Turner, but other black performers as well. Presley admitted his music had roots in the black community - so why isn't an artist from the black community being celebrated on rock's birthday? Why is Presley's name the only one on the cake? Presley had the courage to cross...
