And I say, ‘No, you don’t need Everybody’s Nearly Dead 2! The last thing you need is Everybody’s Nearly Dead 2! Abaked. Go straight on!’
At another point in the conversation, Simon Pegg talked about his partnership with Edgar Wright: “Whatever E d g a r and I do next, let’s not depend on what we’ve done before.

We should just do something that nobody is expecting. But nobody wants to!”
