So. It’s kind of over. Kind of, but not really. Evidence for both camps of thought are around, the youth and even those - like myself - who are no longer in the ‘youth’ category are getting out and mingling. Public transport is getting busier, strangers sitting closer in proximity to one another rather than standing for their journeys.

Coming 2 America
Sequels have always been seen as an easy way to make money in Hollywood.
