[nvdmrsur] Resurrecting the hero for the sequel

The sequel movie begins, unexpectedly, in a meeting in a Hollywood producer's office (perhaps the real producer), with the producer demanding a sequel to the previous profitable movie, but the screenwriters protesting that they definitely irreversibly unambiguously killed off the hero in that movie.

"No problem," says the producer, and we cut to a scene in a crypt with the same producer, still in a business suit, surrounded by candles engaged in a macabre ritual to raise the hero from the dead.  Multiple kittens are sacrificed.

Cut back, with the screenwriters a bit bug-eyed: "O... kay... then..."

And so the romantic comedy sequel begins.

(The hero dies again at the end.)
