We all have movies we love. And in those movies, the characters usually talk about things or things are shown briefly we would love to see shown or elaborated on. Here's a few off the top of my head:

1. Louis Tully's 20 Minute Workout session (Ghost Busters). Early in the movie, Dana runs into Louis in the hallway, where Louis tells Dana about recording 20 Minute Workout then playing it back in high speed so it only takes ten minutes. The image of him doing a super fast workout in my head is hilarious :lol:

2. Louis Tully's ledge adventure (Ghost Busters). Same movie, same scene, I imagine Louis' hijinks as he battles with pigeons and pigeon shit as he attempts to disconnect Dana's cable :lol:

3. Pops' time working construction (Terminator Genisys). Just the idea of seeing a T-800 working construction to make ends meet and ensure that Reese and Sarah Connor have the correct codes to gain entry to Cyberdyne is interesting to me. Seeing the ups and downs of a Terminator holding a steady job before getting laid off would be interesting to see.

What snippets of dialogue or things eluded to in your favorite movies would you like to have seen in said movie?
 
I will start off with 3 because I think I can even come up with many more:

1 Han Solo making the Kessel Run.

2 The Cincinatti event from "Hot Tub Time Machine" though I got to think that whatever they showed would be a letdown.

3 Marlon Brando's descent into being crazy in "Apocolypse Now."

Not necessarily in the movies themselves, but as bonus features, short films:

- I'd like to see how Magneto got captured after (allegedly) trying to save JFK between First Class and DoFP. It'd make an awesome short film. Maybe the authorities simply run him down until he passes out from exhaustion, and keep him unconscious from then on?

- I'd happily watch a whole movie about Cap adjusting to the modern world before Loki's invasion. (Well, maybe a 50-minute movie. But more than the brief scenes, included and deleted, that we got.)

- The Sultan of Madagascar threatening to cut off Indy's... misunderstanding if he ever returned, mentioned in Temple of Doom.
 
- The back story of Ra's al Ghul in Batman begins. He talked about loosing his wife.
I would love a movie about how that death lead him on the path of creating The League Of Shadows.
 
I would have liked to have seen Robin Williams and his as a couple and him dealing with her death in "Good Will Hunting."

Just one episode of "The Tonight Show" with Brodie as host from "Mallrats."

More about Stan Lee and what he was doing in "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" movie. In fact I think I would like a entire web series around the character.

How Doc Brown fixed up his train and made a time travel machine, again and also what he does after "Back to the Future part 3."

The first arc in the Back to the Future comic series, which has a story by BttF co-creator Bob Gale, covers the first one, and the rest of the comics, and the animated series give two different versions of the second.
 
Scotty's "wee bout" that McCoy pulled him out of.

For nuTrek, a Kramer vs. Kramer movie with McCoy vs McCoy. How exactly did she get the whole damn planet in the divorce? ;)
 
Good suggestions all around! I even came up with another one:

Future War from The Terminator films, specifically Terminator 2. I'm not talking about shooting machine guns in the desert in daytime like Salvation, I want to see an all out war movie with John Connor leading the Human Resistance in the War Against the Machines in the ruins of Los Angeles, using phase plasma rifles against aerial HKs, HK tanks and endoskeletons.
 
King Kong: Just about any of the movies. How and heck did they get him off the island and on the boat to take him back to New York. You would need plenty of strong men or cranes or something to lift him up.

Mad Max: The war or whatever it is that destroyed society.

Friday the 13th: They say his name but I forget it at the moment. I am talking about the guy who reopened Camp Crystal lake in the first movie. Thank about what this guy must have had to deal with. First he no doubt invested some of his own money in starting the camp. Granted he proably got a good deal since it hadn't been opened since the 50's but nobody gets land for free.

Next he hires a bunch of teenagers to set up camp. Not only do they do very little work in fixing things up and spend more time having sex and doing drugs but then they get killed. It means his entire investment has gone down the drain. Plus he no doubt must have got sued for not providing any kind of security for them.

I think the next movie should be a prequel about this guy trying to deal with the fact that he has been ruined by Jason Voores. No money in the bank and creditors on his back. He makes it his mission to sue Jason Voores and his family since the Mom was just as guilty to help recoup any lost profit.

Wasn't that the opening of Genisys?

That would be great, then I am the first in line to buy the tickets.
