Like all mediocre Hollywood franchise movies these days, three is the magic number and The Smurfs is no different.

Even though the sequel won't be released until July 31, 2013, Sony is already prepping a third. Since the first installment made $563 million worldwide, the studio has hired writers to work on the threequel's screenplay.

Sure, the NPH movie was panned by critics and audiences alike, but guess what? Money talks!

Are U innerested in seeing The Smurfs in not one, but TWO more adventures?

We think The Amazing Spider-Man is looking pret-ty fantastic from the previews, but apparently Sony did not think the writer behind the film could handle a sequel.

The studio has hired Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, who wrote the last Star Trek and two Transformers movies, to rewrite James Vanderbilt's screenplay for the next installment of the rebooted franchise.

Both are as excited to write it as we are excited to watch it, as the duo said in a statement:

He brought us literary gems like The Notebook, Dear John and The Lucky One and now, Nicholas Sparks wants to write with YOU!

Sparks is giving his readers the chance to work with him on a group story, which they can create on USAWeekend.com!

The only thing the best-selling author provides is the story's title, The End Of All Things as well as the first and last sentences…the rest is ALL yours to construct!!!

The first sentence reads:

"Jasmine Blake thought she understood what love meant until the day she almost died."

And ends with:

"She was just falling asleep when the car stopped, and Rick whispered, 'We're home.'"

So many possible scenarios! So many story lines!

Sparks himself offers a tip to aspiring writers, saying:

"There's no magic answer. If you're going to write a novel about everlasting love, the characters can't be teenagers."

Readers will be able to join in, collaborating on Jasmine’s story until the last sentence is reached and the site will provide an update every day from now until April 20, the same day The Lucky One starring Zac Efron hits theaters!

This is such a cool idea!!!

How would U add on to the story?

LOLz!

How incredible is Damon Lindelof??

Not only is he giving us Prometheus this year… but the dude totally just played the Lost numbers for the lottery!

If you'll recall, Lindelof was one of the writers on Lost — and one of the plots was that Hurley played the infamous numbers (4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42) and WON the lottery. Of course, he won $114 million instead of the ridiculous $660 million that's about to be called tonight!

Also, a big problem is that the numbers are cursed and brought Hurley all the worst luck in the world.

Here's what Damon said:
