Movies that are based on TV shows tend to be overdramatic and often people will act out of character because it's a movie so some BIG DRAMATIC THING has to happen and they have to fill up 90 minutes with it.

On the other hand, I would really hate it if GF unexpectedly got cut short and they had to answer all the questions in a rush, rewriting the last episodes and cutting out a lot of stuff, thus making it even more forced than a movie would be. This is what happened to my favorite show from a few years ago, and now that I've read what was supposed to happen, I'm really disappointed. What show were you talking about that ended?

Honestly, I would prefer 3 seasons not because a movie would be bad or something like that, but because Gravity Falls is a show that deserves a lot more credit and I honestly believe that Season 2 is when a lot more people start to watch/obsess over the show because of the deeper plots, and for the show to end so early for them and for us is disappointing.

Plus, 2 seasons doesn't really give fans a lot of merch. Like, in Season 1 GF merch was really nothing: the 6-episode DVD, really that was it for official merch. Now, more stuff is coming out (like the bobbleheads, 2nd DVD, plushes, etc) and it would really stink if that ended in a year.

Plus, Alex seems like a guy that would know how to plan out all of the S.2 episodes so that it doesn't seem rushed.
