You know, I've had this movie for years and never noticed that "2" in the title. A quick search of the Chinese database reveals LOVE CRUISE to be a sequel of sorts to L-O-V-E...LOVE from the same year, and with which it shares some cast members. I have the latter as well, but have yet to watch it. Probably not a direct sequel as these things go, but nice to find another "sequential" mystery solved!

Calros, you're really good at it! :D

According to the title and the summary, it's something like Chasing girls 2: Ambition of Paparazzi

Oh!!!! In HK they call "Young dogs" to the "paparazzi"? Must be slang. :o

I suggest to use Ms. Fan translation as "literal translation" instead of mine, she is our "HK connection".

Could something like this be added to the main page for LOVE CRUISE, perhaps with the info under the main title:

"This film is a followup to L-O-V-E...LOVE (1997)."

and something like this added to the main page for L-O-V-E...LOVE?:

"Followed by LOVE CRUISE (1997)." or
"Sequel: LOVE CRUISE (1997)." or


Incidentally, L-O-V-E...LOVE is not an easy film to search in the database due to the dashes and ellipsis. The title, as listed in the DB, has spaces between every dash and letter, which might not be the most intuitive way to type the title in a search. Is there any way of including the alternate ways of typing a title like this so that it more easily comes up in a search. There may be other films that suffer this problem as well, but I'm drawing blanks at the moment...

Yes you are right. Fixed.

About sequels / prequels / etc without the same english name, you must use the "Link"

Main "Edit" -> "Links" -> "Add a Link"

I'm not sure what you mean. I don't think my particular editor status allows me to make changes such as the ones I'm suggesting in regards to sequels, follow-ups or same-titled films (besides, I noticed the additions have been made for these two anyways). Or is there already a link that I'm missing on the pages for films like this?

:oops: Sorry I did not remember Review editors cannot "touch" the DB. Fixed.
