     It has been two years since the rough ideas were put on paper for Johnny Thunder and the Gift of the Nile. Finally, after all of the writing, filming, and editing, the movie has now been released! "It's so hard to believe. The first installment in this Johnny Thunder franchise came out just two years ago. Now the second installment is here!" said boom operator Sarah Williamson.
     At the world premiere, the entire cast and crew came to watch the 57-minute film. Also there were journalists and Legotown's most famous film critics: Roger Ebrick and Richard Rebuild. They gave the film two c-hands up. "Best of all, we let Dracula attend the red carpet event so no tension would be created," said film director Steven Lawrence.
     However, a journalist for ABS Daily pointed out that the ending feels too much like a set-up for a possible Johnny Thunder 3. "That's exactly what it is," said assistant director Simon Johnathon. "We figured that, since Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo did so well and Johnny Thunder and the Gift of the Nile will projectively do just as well, a third film is only inevitable. I said that, given the state that the script is in, we might get it out in 2014. The board of directors told me not to push my luck, though."
     Also, the new temporary exhibit at the Legotown Museum, Secrets of Egypt: Tales of the Pharaohs and Treasure, opened today. A photo tour will be posted next week. Also, the studio's other project, Forest of Fear, is still being storyboarded. However, the script changes have been made. It will possibly come out early 2011.
