I am totally fangirl stoked to see **Ocean’s 12**.

I adore the first one (dialog, hot guys, impossible caper, Vegas, good-guy-who-is-the-bad-guy, Bad-guys-who-are-the-‘good guys’, What.Is.Not.Too.Love?)  
This sequel, which I didn’t know was coming out in December I live under a rock I wasn’t excited for at first because sequels generally blow chunks and I will wait for DVD.

Then a friend of mine commented that she was excited about it because **12** could stand on its own now - if it can - can not imitate or pay homage same thing from the 1960’s version, which **11** did.  
I also would like to see **Alexander The Great** because Sweeping Epics need to be seen on a big screen.
