Insurgent: 20 March 2015
Allegiant: 18 March 2016 (so far it will be only one film)

My copy of Allegiant arrives this week :D
I'm completely satisfied with the ending. Have a nice read.

They're gonna lose a lot of money. Just saying. I doubt many people actually give a hoot about this.

But how can they greenlight 3 films that they don't even know will be successful at all?

Young adult books that are made into films have the advantage of already having a fanbase even before the film goes into production. I mean if they can already greenlight 50 Shades series then why not this yo.

- Oh and did I mention that Neil Burger will not be returning for the next films.

Do you believe it will be on the quality side like THG? I highly doubt it.

It's hard to say at this point. It has a similar fanbase as THG, but quality-wise is up to the final product. Also the concept is a decent science fiction and a story that is not over-complicated like Mortal Instruments.

Statement from Summit regarding Burger's exit:
"Neil Burger is a rock star and he is doing a fantastic job on Divergent. We can't wait for you to see the film. But as amazing as Neil is he still cannot be in two places at once and thus needs to finish post production on Divergent while we gear up to start production on Insurgent. So, although Neil will continue on as part of our Divergent family as an executive producer, we sadly have to find another director for the next chapter in Veronica Roth's fantastic series."

Still no word on who is taking over directing duties :think:
