Sequels Don't Have To Suck

You're right.

 

I don't know about Margaret Cho. I saw her here at the Laff Stop here in Houston several years ago and found here to be quite unfunny as all she talked about was her vagina for most of the show.

I would like to see a sequal to Titanic. In it, Bill Paxton would drown at the end. Much to the delight of the audience.

Twister 2: The perfect twister - A massive F5 with 500 MPH winds sucks up Bill Paxton and co-star Mark Wahlberg. Much to the delight of the audience.

Independence Day: The Aliens Strike Back - The aliens seek revenge against Bill Pullman and kidnap him away to their planet. Much to the delight of the audience.

Armageddon 2: In this sequel, the only asteroid that hits earth is one the size of a basketball, yet ironically, it hits Ben Affleck. Much to the delight of the audience.

 

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

 

That would be a good sequel. However, you might want to spell Wood's demise with another scenario other than an exploding space shuttle. Too many bad memories.

Speaking of which, has anyone noticed that Armageddon is hardly on TV anymore??? I am thinking networks are not too eager to show that movie because of the exploding shuttle and objects hitting buildings in NY, making them collapse.

 

Police Academy. The first 12 were so good, they simply must make another, and another, and another.

 

I think a sequel to Bow Wow's award winning 'Like Mike' would star this kid (http://media.ebaumsworld.com/whereismychange.wmv). It would be one mutha****in' hell of a show.

(Warning: For those toddlers on this site, this is an official warning stating that what you are about to see contains graphic language and much hilarity.)

What the hell happened to "Buckaroo Bonzai and the World Crime League"? The supposed sequel shows up in the credits of the first movie, yet they never made it. Friggin geniuses .

As for ID4 (the cool way of saying Independence Day), I heard they WERE making a sequel to that movie. Also, movie execs have been kicking around another Ghostbusters sequel. And, unless you've been living under a rock, you know that the script for Indy 4 is close to completion. too. Lest we forget as well, Die Hard 4 is close to being "a go."

As for my choices for sequels, I've gotta go with:

Spaceballs 2 (i.e. "The Search For More Money")
Real Genius 2 (More Val Kilmer madness, please...)
Total Recall 2 (C'mon! Is it a dream or not?!)
Mannequin 3 (Let's face it: life is just not worth living without another wacky Mannequin movie starring Andrew McCarthey.)
Tron 2 (Actually, the upcoming video game IS the sequel, I believe...)
The Last Starfighter 2 (Oh. Hell. Yes.)
The Dark Crystal 2
The Breakfast Club 2 (updated for the 00's!)
Explorers 2 (minus the deceased River Phoenix, of course)
Top Gun 2
The Naked Gun 4 (Bring back Leslie, baby!)
The Goonies 2 (Another "Oh. Hell. Yes.")
Conan the Barbarian 2 (actually being kicked around)
Gremlins 3 (Phoebe Cates... Mmmmmmm...)
Remo Williams 2 (C'mon! It had such promise!)
Major League 4 (based on the 2003 Detroit Tigers, no doubt)
Stargate 2 (Give "SG1" their own movie, damnnit!)
Hudson Hawk 2 (Um, on second thought...)
Willy Wonka and the Glass Elevator (Hey, it's a sequel, right?)
Half-Baked 2
PCU 2 (Jeremy Piven as Droz = sweet.)

AND FINALLY....

OFFICE SPACE 2: REVENGE OF LUMBERGH!

 

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh the possiblities!!!!!

Peter Gibbon's is Lumberg's boss. All the employees use swingline staplers. Lawrence tries to score with Nina, the operator (Corporate accounts payable Nina speaking. Just a moment!).

Sadly, I think VesceySux really would like to see all those sequels happen. The Last Starfighter was one of my all time fav crappy movies.

 

Wasn't there already a sequel to Conan the Barbarian called Conan the Destroyer? And you could probably consider Red Sonja a sequel as well (it had Ah-nald in a loin cloth - close enough).

The only good sequels ever are The Godfather Part II and The Empire Strikes Back. But I'm always willing to watch another Leprechaun flick.

 

I liked all the Naked Gun movies. But better keep O.J. out of the next one, although I always found him hilarious as Nordberg.

 

"Back up in your ass with the resurrection"

That would be amazing! I'd pay 8 bucks just to see the trailer!

 

Of Mice and Men 2: Hey, I've already shot two people in the head

 

You know it. I'm just a sucker for sequels. The problem is, I always come out of the movie theater disappointed and then proclaim loudly to anyone within earshot about how good the original was compared to the crappy sequel. What can I say? I'm a l33t b*stard.

Sequels that DON'T suck:
Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi (You know you liked it...)
Godfather II
Rocky II
Rocky IV
Die Hard 2
Terminator 2
Lethal Weapon 2
Lethal Weapon 3
Superman II
Star Trek II: Wrath of Khaaaaaaaaaan!!!!
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Star Trek: First Contact
Aliens
The Mummy Returns*
Toy Story 2
Silence of the Lambs (it's the sequel to Manhunter)
Matrix: Reloaded
Rambo
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade


*ONLY when compared to the original

 

Starship Troopers 2: The BrainBugs Cometh
The Usual Suspects 2: Kaiser Goes Down
Babe 2: Makin Bacon (There might have already been a sequel)

 

Ishtar II: The quest for humor

 

Good God, no! That's just about the worst movie ever made...Oh, man, they dragged out just about every stale movie cliche to try and drag that unwanted puppy along, including, but by no means excluded to;

* After Apollo dies in a exhibition boxing match, and Rocky is persuaded to make a comeback...somehow connected...he is in training ( with Apollo's former traner, of course, sufficiently grieved)..and, at a moment of crisis, the trainer exhorts Balboa to focus by saying " Don't let Apollo's death be for nothing!"


...now I ask you, what meaning would a man's death be given by beating someone on a boxing match, even if it was the man who punched him so hard he died?

* When Rocky is training...in Russia, mind...he is followed around by a couple of KGB keystone cops...and, at one point, while seemingly unaware that we are watching them, Rocky decides to lose his pursuers by running through the snow. Now, aside from why a man out in the wilds of Russia feels the need to be even more alone, let's examine what happens, and how it's portrayed; Rocky...a native, I'll remind you, of the Artic climes of Philadelphia, Penn. eludes his hapless pursuers by virtue of his ability to run in the snow while they slip and stumble about, resulting, it is assumed, in much hillarity.Of course, it makes sense that a native of Philly would know a lot more about running in Russian winters than Russian soldiers.

* In just about the most sophomoric rendition of Cold War prejudice, Rocky is portrayed as scrappy, soulfull, and the underdog, while the Russian is seen as cold, ruthless, corrupt, and gifted by God and Science...and yet Rocky's guts are so compelling, and Drago's downright nastiness is so repellent, that
even the Politbureau turns their back ( literally) on the damn'ed Drago in favor of Mr. Balboa...God, what tripe.

It goes on and on...oh, ,man, but that was awful...

 

Freejack
Private Parts
Barb Wire

I guess the only one I seriously think could use a 2nd treatment is Private Parts although I wouldn't mind seeing Pam scantilly clad and kicking ass again...

 

Go back to Russia, Commie.

mr_gootan, yes Babe allready has a sequel: Pig in the City.
