But speaking to SFX Whedon said that that any sequel should not try to top the first film. “[It should be] smaller. More personal. More painful. By being the next thing that should happen to these characters, and not just a rehash of what seemed to work the first time. By having a theme that is completely fresh and organic to itself.”

Oh, honey, no.  Understand the Whedon pain scale-

NORMAL – Someone you love dies.

PAINFUL – Someone you love dies and it sends someone else you love into a ruinous tailspin, usually right over the moral event horizon.

MORE PAINFUL – EVERYONE YOU LOVE DIES
