raven...the one you say is ring3 "spiral"...I think you may have been confused.
Spiral....sounds like "uzumaki" This was an completely unrelated movie apparently based on a manga.

Ring 2?
 

There's going to be a second Ring huh? Where can I see the trailer. Please don't tell me it's just going to be called "The Ring:2"

yes it is just called the ring two

go to www.bloody-digsgusting.com and look for the trailer

uzumaki is called vortex.

the spiral continues drectly after the events in ringu

they are alos sopuosed to make a prequel to this starting up series. but im not sure if it is goin to happen for sure but im pretty sure i will. with all the other prequels comin out and all. wouldnt be suprized if they made one for this one

id rather have sequal then prequal

*shrugs* Well, I wouldn't know. I'm not exactly a huge fan of the Ring, I mean it's good and all but I'm not as obsessed with it as you seem to be...
However, when translated into English, you get 'Spiral' not 'Vortex,' but of course when can you ever trust America? Damn conformist country. I do know that most people are calling it 'the Ring 3' but I do agree it is just a bit too...what's the word I'm looking for...*different* I guess, to be yet another Ringu. It does follow a similar story line however, I think that's how I got confused.

Pushed to March 24th 2005( a Thursday?). Here's the excuse,

Variety writes:
DreamWorks has pushed back the release of "The Ring 2" from November to Thursday, March 24, due to production delays.

Contributing to the slowdown were a last-minute director switch last spring and a need to coordinate with actress Naomi Watts' schedule.

In March, Hideo Nakata took over the helming reins soon after Noam Murro dropped out.

The Japanese director helmed the original "Ringu," upon which 2002 horror pic "The Ring" was based.

Jim Tharp, head of DreamWorks distribution, said the new date was chosen for its proximity to school and college spring holidays.

"Kids will be out of school and colleges will be out as well," he said.

The first "Ring" was released in October. Tharp said that while Halloween may have complemented the pic's scary theme, most of the film's business was done on the weekend because Oct. 31 is not an official holiday.

"Ring 2," in contrast, will be "more of a spring break kind of business."

Shooting began in May. A wrap date has not yet been determined.

I like the Ring the first time I saw it, but then I saw it again and I just didn't seem to care. Maybe because the first time I saw it I was in a dark room with a good sized TV and it was quiet. The second time it was a shitty tv, too much light in the room and people running around and making a whole lotta noise.
Ok I'm babbling.

All I mean to say is it's only an average movie to me now, maybe if you're so 'obsessed' with it then you should watch it just a few more times.

The Ring 2 seems ok, ut I don't know much about it. Can someone tell me about the general story line?

you had to expect a sequel though, considering the ring is the japanesse version of kruger
