What Sequel Would You Like To See?

Stiletto

Fleet Captain

I watched Sky High again for the 3rd time and I would love to see a sequel to this movie. It was a fun movie, with great redone 80's hits. The idea of Sidekicks and Heroes was great and the theme was cool. Plus it is a good movie for kids.

Any other sequels you all would like to see?
 
No. Sequels are done to death. I'd like to see an original scifi movie with a decent plot and an interesting vision of how the future would look. But I'm not going to hold my breath-with all of the wonderful books and short stories out there the visual media goes and makes a third version of I Am Legend. I guess they couldn't find anything else worth making into a movie, huh? Sick and sad......
 
Well I know I'll get hammered forof these but still....

FF:3 - you know you want to see Mole Man and baby Franklin
Ghost Rider 2 - more serious Johnny now that he knows fully what he is
Daredevil 2 - fallout from Kingpins demise
Willow - yes, Lucas is sitting on his own fantasy series that can be tooled up
Robocop 4 - comes out cryo even further in the future, Detroit now a shining city
Ghostbusters 3 - Murry get off you isolationsist too good for it now ass and do this!
Sahara 2 - One of the few, if only, movies I've liked Matthew McConnoughy
Beverly Hills Cop 4 - Eddie you need to try harder, I love(d) you man. Other longstanding franchises are back. I'm sorry but Meet Dave is going to be D.O.A.

....you asked.

*ducks out of thread*
 
The only sequels I want to see are TV-related. A sequel to DS9 tops my list by a long shot. :D Firefly, Farscape and B5 sequels would also be welcome.

I could go for these. FF3 needs Galactus to actually appear, FF2 was okay, but had they brought in Galactus for the third act, it would have really helped the movie.
GR 2 can be a sequel but they should abandon Cage and make the next GR be Danny Ketch.
Daredevil may be best suited with a full reboot ala Hulk.
More Willow could be great, there are book sequels which pick up years later which could work. I could never finish them though since they weren't well written at all.
Ghostbusters 3 would probably be the most I'd like to see. The story ideas about a portal/switch Egon and Ray create that allows travel to Hell and it being a really shitty NYC could be great.

I would like to these movies as well. Even though I did not love Ghost Rider, I would still like to see a follow-up.

Sequels I would like to see myself:

The Scorpion King 2
- I hear that there is a Rock-less prequel filming but I still want to see a continuation from the first story. I really did not like the first one's execution but still would like to see the follow through.

Alien Vs. Predator 3 - I do not hate either of the first two and still want to see this done correctly. Maybe ending around the time of the first Alien movie.

Men In Black 3 - I love both of the first movies and would not mind another follow up.

Eldest - I liked the first one with the exception of the actor who played the main character. I have not read the books but still would like to see the movies continued.

King Kong 2 - I really really loved Peter Jackson's movie and would like to see how he would do a sequel to compare to the Son of Kong and King Kong Lives.

Zorro 3 - Again, I did enjoy both of the first movies and hoped that there would be a great series of these movies.

In all seriousness? I know it's the purest pipe dream, but I would love to see one or more sequels to Master And Commander: The Far Side Of The World. Ideally with Peter Weir back directing, and the whole cast back. After all, there are twenty books (well, and part of a twenty-first) in the Aubrey/Maturin canon.

Personally I think The Fortune Of War would be an awesome basis for a film. Although it technically takes place prior to The Far Side Of The World in the books' chronology, the fact that a) they changed the setting of the TFSOTW from the book's 1812 or 1813 to 1805 for the film and b) The Fortune Of War's plot is inextricably bound to the War of 1812 means that a sequel based on that novel is still feasible. You've got a great plot with a lot of intrigue, a couple of kickass sea battles (actual historical battles here, to boot), and you get to really delve into Stephen Maturin's other life as a secret agent (which was, apart from a subtle throwaway line, ignored in the first film).

From a practical standpoint, the biggest problems are that Jack Aubrey spends much of the story as an invalid (which might not sit well with Russell Crowe's ego, not being the focus of the story the whole time) and that it actually presents the Americans as antagonists (albeit respected, honorable, and sympathetic ones... and the French are still the real villains). The 'Americans as antagonists' issue was what inspired some of the changes in TFSOTW's plot and setting--the French privateer of the film was an American naval vessel in the book. It was felt on some level, we find, that American audiences (especially in a post-9/11 timeframe) might be turned off by a film in which Americans are the enemy.

Anygate, it's not liable to happen, I'm sure. But a guy can dream.

I'd love to see the entire Aubrey series filmed, though I've only seen the movie, not read the books. As someone fascinated with the Napoleonic Age of Sail, I loved the first movie.

I'd also like to see:
  • Farscape continued
  • Men In Black III (In the spirit of I, not II)
  • A sequel (or more) to Sky High
  • More Sky Captain films, but with livelier, more coherent scripts and less of Gwyneth Paltrow (may I suggest Sky Captain and the Hidden Fortress, a prequel about the oft-discussed 'time in Nanjing?')
  • More Lara Croft films (preferably five or six more, and more like the first film than the second)
  • Jurassic Park IV
  • Ocean's Fourteen, including Angelina Jolie
  • X-Men 4, with a large (living) role for Cyclops
  • More Boston Blackie movies, shot in a suitably retro style and with good replacements for Chester Morris, et alia.
  • Sequels to The Rocketeer
  • More The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen films
  • The remaining Jack Ryan novels, with a slimmed-down Alec Baldwin again in the lead
  • More Star Wars films

ah, but, see, we never saw Cyke die. See, what happened was...

Jean in X-3 is actually a clone created by Sinister. She doesn't kill Cyke she just kinda knocks him out. After the cut to the next scene, Sinister and the Nasty Boys arrive and take Cyke away to his secret facility where we find the real Jean Grey. The story would then branch off and deal with Sinister's sinister plot, leadig to the creation of a IVF kid from Cyke and Jean, whom they name... Nathan!
 
Ben Affleck, Liv Tyler, Michael Clarke Duncan, Steve Buscemi, Peter Stormare and Billy Bob Thornton in a franchise of Armageddon movies.

The first one was an asteroid, the second one can be a comet, the third one can be the son of the first asteroid out for revenge, the fourth one can be an asteroid that phases in and out of our space time continuum, the fifth one can be a haunted asteroid with the ghost of Bruce Willis, the sixth one can be an asteroid from the future, the seventh one can be Kryptonian, the eighth one can be Haley's Comet... the possibilities are endless!
