How great is it to see this one continuing?

I loved the Thomas Crown Affair remake and it's interesting to see that they didn't try to concoct a new story, rather they'll be using plot points from Topkapi (can't say that I've ever seen it). High hopes for this one, I just wonder if Rene Russo will also return for the sequel.

I find the Bond films tiresome, but I'm loving Pierce's career moves as of late (here's hoping that After Sunset is a great film).

Not just a sequel, but a sequel that's also a remake?

This may be the least original film of all time.
