    Today in unnecessary sequel news: They're working on a sequel to Lord of War. I'm sure it'll go great along with 2 Gladiator 2 Furious and Passion of the Christ 2: Crucify This Maybe the sequel...

    Maybe the sequel will be about how Yuri, based on real life arms dealer Viktor Bout, goes to prison but gets exchanged for someone that was stupid enough to take pot across international borders.

    “Lords of War” finds Orlov (Cage), the world’s most notorious gunrunner, as he discovers that he has a son, Anton (Skarsgård), who is trying to top his dad. Anton is amassing a mercenary army to fight America’s Middle East conflicts. This triggers an intergenerational bitter rivalry, one that pits father and son against each other.

    Nevermind... Went from "based on true events" to typical Hollywood I-bet-we-can-make-this-a-franchise crap.

    I guess brothers don't count as family?

    "but this time, it’s become a family affair"

      Guess not. Considering another site is reporting the plot to be: ...gives family affair another meaning.

      Guess not.

      Considering another site is reporting the plot to be:

      The sequel, titled Lords of War, will follow Orlov as he discovers the existence of his son Anton who is eager to top the crimes of his father. He's not just interested in selling guns, but the men behind them too. Anton and Yuri will go to war as the former amasses an army of mercenaries. They'll fight over everything, even the same woman, in their rivalry with one another as they try to climb to the top.

      ...gives family affair another meaning.
