Talking to MTV, he goes on to say that the “First one was just introducing, setting up stuff, so we can go a lot farther. Let’s just say [this] is not a lame sequel”. and that we can expect a lot more from the robot cast, even though there are a lot more on screen; “The robots are going to surprise a lot of people because we go with a lot of different levels,”.
