View Full Version : Films that be needing sequels.
Go on, throw some suggestions out to appall and amuse me.
I'l start with one, then you list some, then I think of more.
TAKEN. A film that pits Liam Neeson against the continent of Europe with the moral of the story being 'don't attempt to attend a U2 concert'. Taken is as good as it gets because it has no qualms about being anything other than a straightfoward action movie.
You reckon Neeson would have gotten his A-Team part in that rubbish remake had he not kicked serious arse in this movie? Everyone who saw the poster laughed at it but you walked out genuinly fearing for your life. That phone call speech is one of the greatest moments in cinema history.

Taken :love: only £3 in HMV. [/arista]
I'd be interested in a sequel to Kick-Ass...but I think that's been confirmed.

If I really love a film then I usually hope there isn't a sequel. Theyre rarely any good and can actually put me off the original film if theyre really bad. So I usually avoid them to preserve the memory. Especially if they don't have great reviews.

Being a movie buff with terrible standards I have no such qualms. I appreciate and understand what makes a good film but I'm also a total ***** for dodgy sequels. I'm a complete Matrix fanboy having been raised on the trilogy and I genuinly think Reloaded is cracking despite the first forty minutes and Revolutions is ... interesting.
The only films that I don't like are what I perceive to be bland films. Even shite films are funny because they are shite.

The Warriors II [lmfao as if that'll happen].
Home Alone 5 [with me writing it, casting it and producing it].
Dead Set 2 [would be impossible but they could do a prequel and tell us what caused it]
Due Date 2 [No not some other movie with the same actors, Just a sequel!]

WANT. WANT BADLY.
omg
I'm surprised it has not happened yet other than the fact that McCauly however you spell it is synonymous with the franchise and any new child actor would face the wrath of nerds everywhere.
Edit : Apparently McCauly whatshisface aint in 4 either. Never seen it thank god.
More Edit : Or 3.

A series of Unfortunate events does not need a sequel, they completely raped it in comparison from the books

The film...oh dear. They just turned it into another "Hi I'm Jim Carrey I have bills to pay" role.

That's riddiculous. There are dozens of other reasons. Maybe the crew want to work on other projects. Maybe the time is not right. Maybe the money is not right.
Maybe they just didn't want to make a sequel.

One of my fave films ever is Battle Royale.
But I refuse to watch the sequel as it just doesn't look much cop. I don't want it to taint my feelings towards the first one.

I would love there to be a "Back to the future 4". At one point they were on about it. Not sure if Michael J Fox would be up for acting in it though if it happened? Seeing as though he has Parkinson's :(
Meh if he won't be in it then there shouldn't be another one I suppose.
Ooo Christopher LLoyd :love:

I would've liked a sequel to "The Thing" but when I look back, that ending is exactly what it should be to fit with the paranoia throughout the film.
