Sequel that should not be
 
Any sequel that should have never been made?

Batman after Tim Burton left.

MTSUGURL 01-31-2003 03:42 AM

Any made for video Disney movie. They're never nearly as good as the first.

GODFATHER III.

Rocky (you pic the number)

cuaphi 01-31-2003 11:50 AM

I heard there are deals in the works for both Jaws V and another Indiana Jones movie!! Hope someone comes to their senses before shooting begins.

DeltaSigStan 01-31-2003 11:59 AM

Rocky
Rambo
Police Academy
Major League
FRIDAY
Final Destination
Cruel Intentions
From Dusk Till Dawn
Matrix
American Pie (Though they did surprise me by making a great sequel)

Among countless others. It seems that when every movie is released, and it does well, the talks of the sequel start. I'm sure there's going to be a Kangaroo Jack 2 now, and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw even a sequel to Titanic (Hollywood can do it).

You contradicted yourself buddy. But I agree with you, American Pie 2 was really, really good. I think I liked it better than the first.

I may get flamed for this...
 
The many versions of:
Lord of the Rings
Harry Potter

I don't see what all the hype is about.

What I mean is, they only did it to cash in on the success of the original, but they actually did a good job.

scary movie 2

pretty much any horror movie: friday the 13th, nightmare on elm street, scream, i know what you did last summer, etc etc

american psycho 2..this could be the worst movie i've ever seen, not only did it just suck in general, it had pretty much nothing to do with the original movie, and the part that did in fact relate to the original does not make sense.

American Psycho 2-had nothing to do with the original
Godfather III-Amen, 33!
Texasville-which no one but me probably saw
Wayne's World 2
Scream 3

I'm not flaming you...to each their own right. but are you saying they should never have made Lord of The Rings or just one, 9 hour long movie?

moe.ron 01-31-2003 12:52 PM

A 9 hours movie, better have a bathroom break every 2 hours.

LOL. No way. That would be unbearable watching that movie (or any movie) that long.

What are you talking about?

I can't wait for a new Indiana Jones. The movies in that trilogy have got better and better IMHO.

Just imaging the new vs. the old Starwars not to mention wondering if Harrison Ford can still be Indiana Jones like he used to be.... Might turn out well, I'm just not that optimist about it.

Uh, it would be really really hard to make a Lord of the Rings movie w/out sequels, SINCE THE STORY WON'T END UNTIL THE THIRD ONE.

I guess I just don't get where you're going with this

doubleblue&gold 01-31-2003 02:26 PM

Scarlett
There just is NO sequel to "Gone with the Wind!"

agger_rob 01-31-2003 02:38 PM

I'm really lookinf forward to the Indiana Jones Sequel.

I am not, however, looking forward to Die Hard 4 with Britney Spears, Rocky 6, or Jurassic Park 4 which all seem to be inevitable.

There should never have been Jurassic Park 3, Smokey and the Bandit 2, Butch and Sundance - The Early Years, Austin Powers 3, Leathal Weapon 3 & 4, Slap Shot 2, Caddyshack 2, and any of the Iron Eagle sequels.

Man, I never realized Hollywood put out so much crap.

adduncan 01-31-2003 02:39 PM

Revenge of the Nerds II thru IV

The first was a cult classic you never get tired of.

The rest are just plain tired.

(PS--but I *really* love the original. I have the movie poster framed and on the wall in my office.)

SSS1365 01-31-2003 02:43 PM

About Harry Potter... in this case, it's not like they just came up with something for a sequel because the first one did so well. It's all based on a series of novels, most of which were written and published before the first Harry Potter movie was in theaters. Fans of the first movie (myself included) would be really disappointed if there were no sequels, especially if they've read the books.

Not flaming, just putting my 2 cents in :)

agger_rob 01-31-2003 02:59 PM

Forgot one....

Ghostbusters 2

CanadianTeke 01-31-2003 03:10 PM

They never should have made "The Skulls 2". It was horrible.

I'm looking forward to Slapshot 2, it's going to be great.

Kevlar281 01-31-2003 03:44 PM

EI8HT the sequel to SE7EN.

It's already out and it sucks.

juniorgrrl 01-31-2003 04:52 PM

LOTR in its various parts aren't sequels - they just broke the story into 3 parts

AFAIK, the "sequels" to the Matrix were planned from day 1, all as part of the story.

American Pie 2 was an awful movie. It was basically "hey remember all that stuff was funny before? Let's do it again, but slightly different, and hopefully all the lemmings won't notice and think it was great!"

I hate it when I go to see a bad movie - Hollywood got my $$ and they didn't know that I hated it, so it just encourages them to make more crap.

But these are books and very good books I think. It's not like hollywood decided to make-up another story with the same characters. But that is just my two cents. :D

I hate to disagree but I have to.. :)
Lord of the Rings should be naturally exempt in this thread due to this mostly because you could have either 3 movies or one 9 hour movie. Also, as in most sequels some of the characters change giving the sequel a different feel, this doesn't happen in LOTR series.

Harry Potter...well....I feel they should have pulled a LOTR on it. It wouldn't have made lil Harry seem so 'old' in the 2nd. But hey, it's a kid movie, kids don't care.. :p

NONOONOONONONONOONNOOOO

Revenge of the Nerds II was pretty good - 3 and 4 ate my ass, I'll agree with that, but #2 didn't suck that badly.

What if cat was spelled D-O-G?

Betarulz! 01-31-2003 06:05 PM

Blair Witch II

Totally ruined what made the first one so good...the fact that it was independent, no special effects, people thought it was real, good website, pyschological fear rather than resorting to making people jump...

Thank god they haven't tried to make #3, although I heard that was the original plan.

chideltjen 01-31-2003 11:58 PM

final destination 2????? i didn't know there was a first one :rolleyes:

and if that's the case, a second one should not have been made.

Sorry to break the news that they are now making a Final Destination 3. :rolleyes: The first movie was entertaining, the second sucked.

I just heard on my news that Sylvester Stallone is taking on making Rocky 6 and Rambo 4.
Talk about beating a dead horse.

Oh good lord!!! There must be something that can be done about that.

Of course, I have hated every second of any Rocky OR Rambo movie that I have happened to have watched.
