I don't think you can just "follow the first film's blue print." The first works because it is startingly original and clever. A retread would be disappointing. Not to mention they killed off two major characters, hinted at escalation and the fact that Chloe Moretz is no longer a little kid.

The sequel will need a deft and intelligent hand to work. Otherwise, the movie may suffer. Time will tell
