I know "threequel" became very popular about four years ago, when Spider-Man 3, Bourne 3, Shrek 3, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and maybe a few other 3's came out.

"Fivequel" seems like an inevitable, though by no means easy-to-say, continuation of that trend. -- dadl-ot mailing list http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot
