I just don’t get ‘Trainspotting 2.’

Trainspotting?  That one, I get.  It was a brilliant film.  A classic one. They should show that film in high school so that kids will understand what the nigh-literal hell heroin does to you*.  But I do not ken why we needed a sequel.  Was there an outcry that I missed?

 

 

*I am aware that other people have argued otherwise; I think that they’re wrong. Trainspotting struck me as ultimately being a powerful argument against drug use.  Admittedly, the schools would blanch at showing anti-drug movies involving sex scenes with underage characters, which upon reflection is a bit of a deal-killer there, given the circumstances. Still. If you’re looking for a glamour-less look at drug use, here you go.
