Main Body

They say the story is too slow and the talking is boring. They also say Miranda is too kind now. But many people bought tickets. The movie made 300 million dollars in two weeks. This is more money than the first movie.

πŸ•’ The 'Now' and 'Then' Shift

Look at how the story moves from the past to the present using simple words:

The Old β†’\rightarrow The New

  • Old actors β†’\rightarrow Back in the story
  • Old fashion β†’\rightarrow New computer trends
  • First movie β†’\rightarrow Second movie

πŸ’‘ The Magic of "Too"

In English, we put too before a word to say something is "more than we want." It is usually a bad thing:

  • Too slow (I want it faster)
  • Too boring (I want it exciting)
  • Too kind (Miranda is usually mean, so this is strange)

πŸ’° Money Talk

To talk about success, use these simple building blocks:

Made + Amount + Time β†’\rightarrow Made 300 million dollars in two weeks.

Quick Tip: Use "more than" to compare two things. Movie 2 β†’\rightarrow more money than β†’\rightarrow Movie 1.
