Speaking of The Butterfly Effect, I really enjoyed that movie (the Director's Cut ending was bad, though)... but I recently downloaded Butterfly Effect 2... fucking awful movie, never even got round to watching the end because it sent me to sleep.

They had a real audacity putting the Butterfly Effect name to that God-awful script to make a few extra bob, it bore little to no resemblance to the ideology, style, message or even continuity of the first film...

the only similarity is that the lead character can go back in time, at will, by staring into a photograph (despite no mention of ever having had blackouts in the past, which as the first film laid out, would happen during a period when his future self would overtake his past self's body)... it's just a crappy time travel film with small ambitions, and it's tarnished the legacy of what was a great film.
