If it's the Studio's doing, then somebody clearly doesn't understand the term continuity and how big of a hurdle it becomes when you mess with it.

Suit #1: I have a brilliant idea!

Suit #2: What is it?

Suit #1: Let's not hire Scott for the 4th film!

Suit #2: That makes no sense. We spent a lot of money and time setting up the character of Selene and Michael in the first two films. They have a history and it's vital to the series mythology. What possible good reason do you have for wanting to f*ck this up?

Suit #1: My daddy owns the Studio. Oh, by the way, never question me again. You're fired!

Suit #3: I overheard your conversation. I think it's a brilliant idea. You're gonna revolutionize Hollywood by revitalizing the Underworld franchise.

Suit #1: And you are?

Suit #3: Your new 'Yes-man'. And you can call me b*tch or lackey. You're the boss.

Suit #1: You're hired. Now go wash my car.

Suit #3: Yes, Sir.




FYI, this scene plays sooooooooo much better with three hot chicks dressed up in leather.
