Where was the sequel?

I would've liked to see an LXG2, even without Connery if necessary, as I rather enjoy the movie.
Well, there's the Richard Gere movie "The Hoax", which I enjoyed a good deal more than "The Aviator".
Ooh, any references on that plan? I'd have given my left pinky toe for a Mummy sequel as good as the first, and agree that going back to Egypt and Imhotep was a poor move.

I don't...I liked the second one just fine, but the third one was really rock bottom..
Rob
A sequel to Men in Black that respects the feel of the first without slavishly trying to repeat it.
As little as I liked the Lost in Space tv series, I really enjoyed the movie and would have enjoyed a trilogy of films in that setting.
Lynch's Dune, The Incredibles, Unbreakable, to parrot some others.
Am I going to be the first to say Star Wars episodes 7, 8 and 9?

Probably, because the novels and comics outstrip whatever Lucas might have done.
So there's no truth to the rumor that the first three Zahn novels originally started out as the scripts for Episodes 7 thru 9?
Oh, and as for SW sequels (actually prequel, in this case) I give you: Alien Exodus

Definitely the Incredibles could use a sequel. I loved the show, especially the costume maker!

I second that...I actually thought that movie was creepy...
Then I would like to see a sequel to Gross Pointe Blank..

I'm among those who would've, still would, go for an LXG sequel.

Untrue. The novels are ronto dookey.
Look -
If they did LXG II and followed the graphic novel, we would have 'em going up against the Martians in the Victorian era version of War of the Worlds.
We'd get:
1. The Nautilus fighting it out with tripods
2. Hyde. Jesus Christ, without spoiling things too much, Hyde is just...wow...in that book.
There's really a lot more, but I really don't want to spoil things...

Despite how bad Conan the Destroyer was, I always thought that they could have made more Conan movies.
If they do remake The Last Starfighter, I hope the new kid isn't as whiny and spineless as the first one. But a recast sequel of that could still be done with a new threat.
I can't think of any other movies. It seems like Hollywood has gone with a sequel whenever possible for everything.

It was in a print magazine back in 2000 or so - Starburst probably.
Interestingly, Creature is now being remade but not by Sommers and co.
I rewatched both of those about a month ago. They both have a certain B-level charm to them and were decent for the day.
It does seem we got cheated out of an actual movie that had Conan ascending to a King-ship position. They teased it in both movies, "...but that's a tale for another time" type line and then show Conan on a throne.
I remember thinking in the 90's when Arnold had fully revived Terminator that the chance to continue and revive Conan was then. Conan was Arnolds two franchises as Sly had Rocky&Rambo. He could have done two more Conan's just as he did two more Terminators. Maybe Conan 3 circa 1993/1994 and Conan 4 2002/2004
Barbarian. Destroyer. Conqueror. King.
That is how I'd like to have seen it play out.
No. The climax to Return of the Jedi actually came from the sequel trilogy, though with Luke standing in for Luke's sister. The sequel trilogy was to focus on the "another" that Yoda speaks of in Empire and her training to ultimately destroy the Emperor. When Lucas needed a "ZOMG!" moment to rival "Luke, I am your father" from Empire for Jedi, he decided to make Leia the "another" and move the Emperor from the sequel trilogy into Jedi. So there really isn't a story for Episodes VII-IX any longer; Jedi ends where Episode IX would have ended.
Honestly, the only movie that just screamed needing a sequel that didn't get one was not SF:
Silverado
I mean Jake hollers, "We'll be back!" as the last line while he and Emmett ride off for California. Shame that - I love that movie.

I've never had any interest in those movies, but there's a part of me that would love how that would look on the spines of four DVDs/Blu-rays on my shelf.
