In this case, does the sequel to a popular movie or book match the success or entertainment value of the original? The students will need to use the scientific method to determine a way to answer that question. They will also need to design a test to empirically show that sequels do worse than the originals.
This experiment is a great way to link science with language arts. Now, more
