They need to team up with Ash from The Evil Dead

Tucker & Dale vs Harold & Kumar.

I never saw the movie, but the 2014 TV show was awesome and I wish it had gotten another season. Having the same actor make a few lame crossovers with the Arrowverse did not suffice.

Keanu said he'd jump at the opportunity to make a sequel as well and he's been pushing for it for a while

The worst part about Constantine was the main cast.

Ewwwewwwewwewwoooooo

Aw so cute bye bye

Johnny Mnemonic is based of a short story of the same name by William Gibson. It's set in the same world as Neuromancer and his other cyberpunk. If you want to see it explored more, I recommend reading those.

A District 9 sequel is in the works.

Also, In Time, Elysium, or Chappie.

I even have the perfect movie title: Out of Time

You kinda lost me by starting your post with "the correct answer is..." 🤢

There was originally plans for a sequel but I think there where some issues with casting it under performing in the box office. Also, it would need to be with someone else leading as Bruce Willis is too sick to act any more.

Feckin eh!

A. The Princess Bride. More likely a spinoff with Inigo becoming the dead pirate Roberts

Counterpoint:

You are the first person I've ever seen refer to Dredd as anything less than an action masterpiece.

Colombiana (2011) started its life as a sequel before it changed.

She became queen of somewhere far far away, actually. I don't remember the details; it was a long long time ago.

I know it was based on the movie that predated Léon, but I always took La Femme Nikita (the TV show) as a sequel of sorts to Léon. I mean, both movies were Luc Besson, and both covered similar ground, so it's easy enough to conceive of Mathilda taking a new name and identity and carrying on Léon's line of work.

That said, I've not seen La Femme Nikita since it originally broadcast, so I could be remembering it wildly wrong.

dont recall natalie portman ever being in an action flick

A second problem is that if a much beloved movie (or video game) comes out, there's a window of time where you can make a sequel with the same team, actors that are about at the same age, and so forth.

But if you let 20 years go by, that team is gone. Some may be retired, some are doing other things and won't come back, actors will have aged, etc. You're going to have a hard time assembling a group with the same chemistry again.

I think that in many cases, it's better to do a similar work. Like, okay, say you like a space opera like Battlestar Galactica or Firefly or something. I liked both. But...trying to do more of same is going to be a tall order. A lot of times a new team tries to get continuity by lots of in-jokes or allusions to the original that the original team probably wouldn't have, and I think that that can be a negative. If it's a live movie, it's probably going to be hard to get ahold of props from the original and such any more. Like, I'd rather just have someone go do a new, good space opera in the same vein that tries to emulate the good bits of what I liked about the original. A spiritual successor rather than an actual one.

I'm not saying that it has never been the case that there have been good sequels done by other people. I like the Fallout video game series, and it's had a variety of teams and companies that have done entries. But I think that there have been a large proportion of attempts to build on past IP using a new team that just don't work out.

Agreed. There are a lot of posts in here about movies that are great as standalone movies.

Crouching Tiger 2 was a terrible idea

And then 25 years later she books passage on the Hindenburg because she’s afraid of ships.

Already done 🫠 https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1640571/

and drowning her bf.

It had an interesting concept that could be used to better results

Good thing it didn't also get a shitty tv show though

I haven't seen the fourth, but I don't think that the second and third movies were that bad. It wasn't Phantom Menace for Star Wars, where the movie just targeted a completely different demographic.

You mean they should make a 5th one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix_(franchise)/

Only if Kathryn Bigelow is involved. I dread someone trying this and ending up with someone worse than Point Break.

Joke's on you, we're already in pre-production for sequels to every movie from 1959-1999

I'm more curious of the construction of Dante's house to withstand and fit an elephant.
