It'll probably be good. There's still a whole lot of source material they can use, and the first one was decent (I haven't seen it, but I've heard it was a good movie.) A sequel definitely makes sense.

Are there even any more content from the original Bad Guys books, that can inspire Dreamworks to make a sequel? They better do it fucking right dude, we’ve had two bad sequels in the span of less than a month. Third time is just adding salt to a very bad wound.

I’ve said this far too many times to count, but people need to stop treating megamind 2 as a dreamworks movie sequel. It’s not by them. Its by their television animation department. I don’t think it should count in the discussion of dreamworks sequels because it really isn’t a true sequel

Unless I missed it, you haven't talked about the synopsis of The Bad Guys 2 where the titular gang is having trouble getting acceptance by the crowd, but then an all-female gang of criminals ropes them into doing "one last job". Granted that may be all we know about the plot so far but I think a better plot would be that the Bad Guys still have trouble finding acceptance, but when Mr. Wolf hears that Diane got recruited by the International League of Heroes from the seventh book to do a special mission, he makes a plan for him and his gang to complete this special mission themselves in the hopes that it will get them recruited into the International League of Heroes and ultimately prove they are no longer bad guys.

Half a year ago, I would've been so excited Now, I'm just worried

I feel like the sequel is going to get the Kung Fu Panda 4 treatment. Where Wolf is the only character, and the other Bad Guys will be in like 5 minutes of screen time...

A sequel!? The story’s literally over Constance’s soul left the house

I'm Optimistic actually, the premise certainly has alot of room to grow and won't compare it to megamind, that movie had such a wide gulf from inception that it was always going to be tricky to make it good, Bad Guys being much more recent helps, along with the natural flexibility of a group of scoundrels continuing adventures)

Dreamworks does a good job adapting books to movies despite them only really sharing the basic structure of what the books are about

Not only that this movie the bad guys 2 and Zootopia 2 is coming out the same year It’s going to be a big competition for two Furry movies

Honestly, here's how I feel about a Bad Guys 2: As long as the plot isn't absolute trash, and the don't screw up the characters, I'm going to enjoy it. Especially if they're basing it off of the books, it should be at least pretty good. Either way, what brings people back is well developed characters, not a perfect story, and I don't think we can deny that the characters were VERY well done. Personally, I adore them all, and would love to just simply see more of them in general.

As someone who never heard of the books and just saw this movie last week, I'm amazed how under the radar it seems. The only animated movie I can even think of having seen in theaters in the past few years was The Boy and the Heron, most other studios have just been putting out stuff that looks underwhelming. So I really hope that this is an opportunity for them to make another good one.

I read the books, and they get pretty wild. Marmalade turns out to be an alien with butts for hands. I have high hopes for the sequel.

@@kenswords RIGHT??

I am now the happiest girl in the world. Not because this announcement surprised me, but because I WAS RIGHT!!! I always knew there was a sequel in the works! I knew it since 2022! Okay, it was more like hoping before I found little tidbits from various posts made by crew members. I deduced that a DreamWorks sequel usually comes out 3.5 years after its predecessor. Said predecessor would also have to be successful, which "The Bad Guys" was in its initial run. With this evidence, a sequel was pretty much in the bag. I even started a prediction sheet about it around this time last year! I have been a fan of "The Bad Guys" ever since I first learned of the movie's development in October 2021. I was charmed by the books and became even more so by the movie. I am not into the heist genre, per se, but the characters absolutely won me over! I fell so much in love with them that I stomached watching "A Very Bad Holiday", which I admit is lackluster in certain areas (but, hey, I still quote it from time to time). Even if the TV show (which according to a few sources is also in production) has the same quality as the special, I would gladly watch it as well. That's how passionate I am about the franchise. I do understand your concerns about the quality of "The Bad Guys 2". I'm also concerned about how it will compare to the first film. I did, however, notice a pattern with DreamWorks and their sequels. It's usually the immediate sequels (AKA the "2"s) that are a step up from the originals. Usually. Sometimes, those sequels can be misses, but it's often the "3"s and/or "4"s that are more misses than the "2"s. While I can't say that the franchise will always be faithful to the book series, I do admit (and hope) that the crew can take elements from those books. All in all, VERY EXCITED to see what the sequel will become! A little scared, maybe, but excited all the same!

Year of the sequels

I SWEAR to fucking god if they mess this one up too……idk but it ain’t gonna be pretty

I do think the bad guys was a fantastic movie I loved it very much and it has a TON of sequel potential and I’m actually excited, yet I’m a bit skeptical after kung fu panda 4 and..megamind 2

This double homicide is turning into a killing spree

I hope The Bad Guys 2 is so great for DreamWorks!

The Bad Guys is my favorite movie (doesn’t mean I think it’s the best movie) so I’ve been waiting for a sequel to be announced for a while. Very excited!

If Wolf and Diane dont hook up, ill ask why even bother? Jokes aside, im hyped af

I literally grew up with the book so I was shocked and jumping off the walls when I saw a movie was coming out and now a secound one!? I know they have a chance at blowing it but I still can’t help but be excited cuz it could still work out if they do it right

I got an ad for the movie and I accidentally skipped just after realizing what it was so I then went and looked and found this

DreamWorks is like Russian roulette some it goes bad sometimes it's goes good for they movies

Me praying that the captain underpants gets a sequel which is not bad

I’ve been having a hard time imagining whatever The one last job the bad girls will give to the Bad Guys. Could it be a surprise Dreamworks animation is saving for the Teaser Trailer?

(Everyone cheering) (Me knowing dreamwork’s track record with sequels this past year): O_O

I hear it's coming out next year on the first day in August. So excited!

The thing with megamind 2 is it would of worked if they had the original voice actor and well I haven't seen it, so I don't know what the plot is?

Since this is based off a book series I'm not surprised

So far this is the year of the sequels

We should build a time machine.

im feeling kinda meh about the idea of a bad guy 2, I mean it was a great movie but a second one? Im not sure if its needed.

They wont screw this one up,if they screw it up I am gonna get so pissed cause they blew it but if they get this sequal right I am gonna be proud because it was a good movie and they didn't screw up the sequal.

What the actual fuck is up with the sequels happening/being announced in 2024???

Recent failures in animation from all studios is mostly in the writing department. Maybe gutting the studio *also* kills the visuals, but if they can't even get the writing right, no amount of rockstar hypercompetent animation will save a project. I'm... not hopeful on this one, but we'll see.

THEY BETTER BASE IT OFF OF THE BOOKS WITH THAT HUGE CENTIPEDE 👹

Hopefully better than the Christmas special

I NEED THAT WOLF NOWWWWWWWWWWWWW

I am pretty keen on this sequel! Frankly I think one of the main reason dreamworks has been flopping is because of megamind 2 since it’s made by the guys that make their t.v shows like the bad guys holiday special and I think we’re going to see a bigger development in dreamworks next year

I’m so glad this & the Mario Movie are getting sequels. I wasn’t able to see them in the theaters when they came out.

oh my goodnais gracias

For the record I wasn't really a fan of the first movie but I did think it was good I really liked Diane foxington as the Crimson paw and quite possibly that was a Twist that I did not see coming personally I think they're going to bring Diane back for the sequel and if they do I'm interested to see what she'll do in the movie my theory is that Diane is now a member of the bad guys and she basically lives with them now I'm interested to know what's this movie is going to be about and I'm also interested to know if we'll get a brand new villain for the sequel it would be kind of lame if they just had marmalade as the villain twice so I'm interested to know if we'll get a brand new villain for the sequel

This is unrelated but what happened with the writing of Kung Fu Panda 4 did they not use screenwriters for that? Thanks I heard something about the writing being different than the other movies

8:03 With a dash of Captain Underpants movie

I _loved_ the original Bad Guys movie, so I have a feeling that this is gonna be good. 😁. I have high hopes. 😁.

If they make a sequel, I WILL go see it! In the meantime, I'll be reading what i can get through of the graphic novels -- hopefully, all of them.

Have you seen the Tigers Apprentice?

YES IM SO EXCITED FOR IT WOOO

My fav Dreamworks film

Wonder if it’s gonna be like the books before the 10th since after that it spirals into inter dimensional travel and stuff

please dreamworks do not screw this up

Praying its not going to be the same sequel as mega blind (Megamind)

I got a Feeling about this Movie! It seems Promising!

Why is everything getting new sequels with animations these days?

I can’t decide if the bad guys 2 movie or The Bad Guys: Bad for Bussiness series is gonna be better?

Oh boy can't wait for Dreamworks to milk the bad guys

Hell yes!! Love the bad guys

Dreamworks outsourcing their animation to other studios seems interesting, I would pay good money to see Dreamworks and Aardman shake hands again like they did when they made Chicken Run and Wallace and Gromit the curse of the were-rabbit.

We'll see afterward; either good, bad, or messy.

It will probs be based on everything after book 10

They could have Ms. Tarantula deal with guilt after accidentally killing a senior by causing them to die of a heart attack from pranking them.
