I remember watching American Pie and thinking it was pretty funny. Then I watched American Pie 2 and remembered why all sequels suck. I skipped American Wedding on the “sequels suck” theory and skipped the three direct-to-DVD spin-offs on the corollary theory that direct-to-DVD sequels suck more than anything else in the world sucks. Apparently the studio behind the movies, Universal, agrees is going to put the “sequels suck” theory to the test on the big screen yet again.
According to Moviehole, Universal is planning to stop making direct-to-DVD movies like American Pie: Beta House and get back to theatrical sex and virginity jokes with American Pie 4. There is no word on which of the original stars (including Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott, Chris Klein, Mena Suvari, Alyson Hannigan, and Eddie Kaye Thomas) might come back for another round or what sort of story hasn’t been milked dry. More details and an official acknowledgement are promised soon.
