‘Journey 2’ a film of inaccuracies, inadequacies

...There’s a lot that is odd about “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island.” It is both a sequel to the 2008 big-screen version of Jules Verne’s “Journey to the Center of the Earth” and an adaptation of Verne’s book “The Mysterious Island.”

Because the plot of “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island” does not involve a trip to the center of the earth, Warner Bros. couldn’t very well call it “Journey to the Center of the Earth 2.” So the studio took the calculated risk of naming it “Journey 2” with the knowledge that at least a few moviegoers would confuse it with what Steve Perry’s rock band called itself after he left it for good in 1997....

After all these years...still someone refers to it as "Steve Perry's band." I wonder what Neal would have to say to that, lol!
