地道美语听力播客944：看电影不看续集太可惜

厄休拉： 你怎么和昨天看一样的电影?

Ian: No, this is the sequel. Yesterday, I watched Aims Pond. This is Aims Pond: Super Spy.

兰：不是，这是续集。 昨天，我看的是Aims Pond， 这是Aims Pond: Super Spy。

Ursula: Wasn’t this originally a TV show?

厄休拉： 这不就是一个电视节目吗?

Ian: Actually, it was originally a novel, which was adapted into a long-running TV show. Then, it was turned into a movie franchise. The new installment is coming out next month and I can’t wait!

兰：其实，原著是本小说，然后改编成了长篇电视剧。然后又改编成了电影。 下个月新一期要上演了，我都等不及了。

Ursula: The latest installment? I thought it was just a trilogy.

厄休拉： 最新一期? 我还以为就是三部曲。

Ian: No, the original film has spawned four sequels and two prequels so far.

兰：不是，电影有4部续集，2部前传。

Ursula: So you’re watching all the films again?

厄休拉： 所以你把所有的电影又看一遍?

Ian: That’s right, but I’m not stopping there. I’m watching all of the TV show episodes again, too. And if I have time, I’ll even watch the spin-off.

兰：恩，但不仅仅如此，我把所有的剧集都又看了一遍，要是我还有时间，我要把衍生出来的节目看个遍。

Ursula: Spin-off? I didn’t know there had been a spin-off.

厄休拉： 衍生出来的节目?我不知道还有衍生出来的节目这么一回事呢。

Ian: There was. Aims Pond’s brother got his own show: Jaime Pond: Building Inspector. It wasn’t very successful.

兰：有。 Aims Ponds 的哥哥也有一个节目——Jaime Pond: Building Inspector。但是不是很成功。

Ursula: I guess we can call you a superfan.

厄休拉： 我猜你绝对是个僵尸粉。

Ian: That’s right. I’m a superfan of the super spy!

兰：是啊，我是《超级间谍》的僵尸粉。
