Post here - movies you'd love to see a sequel made **spoilers I'm sure**

[LynneSin]

I am fascinated by movie "Splice" which starred Sarrah Polley and Adrian Brody who create manage to splice human DNA in with a bunch of other critters to create this bizzarro human,bird,frog hybrid.

If you have seen the very end of the movie, turns out that Polley, the only survivor of this mess, is knocked up by what we suspect is a spawn from when she was raped by this spliced species. Ever the scientist wanting to push to the edge, she did not abort the beast but intead it seems like she sold herself in the name of science.

I know I'm curious as to what she ended up breeding.

What other movies would you love to have a sequel made

[kentauros]

1. The Brass Bottle

What happened to Fakhrash and Tezra?

[banned from Kos]

2. Royal Tennenbaums for one

Bottle Rocket

Happiness

Boogie Nights.

(all would fail though - you can't catch lightning twice)

[ohiosmith]

3. Two: Zombieland, Spinal Tap.

[dr.strangelove]

6. Zombieland

It doesn't end well for our heroes. Maybe a few more weeks of adventure, but eventually they all get the brain munchies.

Seriously though, I enjoyed that movie and would not mind another.

[ohiosmith]

7. With Bill Murray back as a real zombie.

[dr.strangelove]

8. Maybe they will meet Rick Grimes and the Walking Dead crew

Bill Murray was sooo funny in that role.

[NewJeffCT]

32. That was a great cameo

every time I see that movie mentioned, I crack up just thinking of his role in that movie.

[bluesbassman]

4. Rocky and Rambo.

I won't hold my breath though.

[gratuitous]

5. Body Heat

William Hurt gets out of prison and goes looking for Kathleen Turner. I think it could be a real corker of a movie, cat-and-mouse kind of thing. Of course, once Hollywood gets its grimy mitts on a story, they often ruin it, but the time has passed in the real world that the William Hurt character could indeed be getting out of prison about now.

[siligut]

9. But have you seen Kathleen Turner lately?

Alcoholism really aged her

[ohiosmith]

12. Not all due to alcohol. The meds she needs for rheumatoid arthritis have contributed substantially

to her aging and weight gain.

[banned from Kos]

16. Is she an alcoholic? Seriously, I don't know.

Celeb gossip is not my thing.

But I loved her raspy voice in 'Body Heat'.

[ohiosmith]

22. Unfortunately yes. I don't know if she's currently sober or not.

[ohiosmith]

10. And Ted Danson, who is now a song and dance man on Broadway, joins Hurt in his search.

[gratuitous]

14. I thought of Danson

I don't know that you'd want to get too many of the original cast back together (not Mickey Rourke, please!), but Ted Danson's character seemed like he might be sympathetic to a newly-released Hurt, especially if Hurt could persuade Danson that he'd been framed. Danson's character seemed to be highly motivated by a sense of justice.

As to how Kathleen Turner looks now (post above), I think it would make it all the more interesting. Her original character traded heavily on her looks and sex appeal to entice just the right patsy for her scheme. Now she has to rely more on her cunning and guile. I really think it could work well.

[taterguy]

11. The Graduate

They could call it the Post-Graduate.

(Stolen from the movie the Player)

[Taverner]

13. Buckaroo Banzai

[gratuitous]

15. Yeah, whatever became of the World Crime League?

Yeah, I know: They took over the Republican Party. Ba-dum cha!

Difficult to catch lightning in a bottle twice, and Buckaroo Banzai may be of interest solely to the 17 or 18 of us for whom the movie is a classic.

[geardaddy]

37. It's Boo-TAY! TAY!

[YankeyMCC]

18. Enemy Mine

It is actually a trilogy of stories so a full 'reboot' would likely be better but a sequel could be very good.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

19. Room with a View

Braveheart
No Country for Old Men

[applegrove]

21. Oh yes, a room with a view was wonderful.

[RZM]

38. Funny you mentioned 'Braveheart'

When Mel Gibson went on his anti-Semitic tirade, I happened to be out of the country and not able to access the internet. I didn't hear about it until a week or so after it happened. The first story I read on it was one of those 'week after' stories - less about the incident and more 'where do we go from here?' It was essentially asking whether or not he had a future in the business.

One of the insiders quoted said something to the effect of:

'His reputation is damaged, but if he announced today that he was making 'Braveheart 2,' the lines would still form.'

Always stuck with me for some reason. Though rather than 'Braveheart 2' specifically, I think what we need are more quality historical epics.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

39. more quality historical epics. !!! YES!!!

Mel's politics may suck but, damn. the man could make a good movie, I don't care what they say.

[RZM]

41. Definitely

I'm even willing to slide on the accuracy ('Braveheart' wasn't particularly strong on that one) if it's a good story, with a good script and decent actors.

This is not what I had in mind:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

42. Are you a Patriot or a Vampire! oh, Tim Burton-you've done it again!!

[applegrove]

20. "My Brilliant Career". I'd love to find out what happened to Judy Davis' character and if she

did get together with her love.

[Duer 157099]

23. Gattaca

I want to know how the trip was, and what he did when he returned.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

24. Thelma and Louise.

But they'd have to be zombies.

[kentauros]

25. The Man in the White Suit

Of course, they'd probably have to remake the original, which would be a mistake. It's hilarious as it is

[mucifer]

26. How about a sequel to "Harold and Maude" with a 79 yo Harold

We might have to wait a few years for that one.

[nuxvomica]

27. Citizen Kane

What became of that "March of Time" reporter after he travels around the country for weeks conducting those lengthy interviews and winds up with nothing to show for it? In the sequel, his boss gives him one last chance to save his job -- find out what something called "The Manhatten Project" is all about.

[HopeHoops]

28. "Galaxie Quest"

[Dr. Strange]

29. The Hunger Games

I think it would be interesting to see the effects on this society of Panem.

[NewJeffCT]

30. already in the works

Catching Fire is due out at the end of 2013, I believe. Having just finished book 2, it's bleaker & more depressing that The Hunger Games.

[NewJeffCT]

31. Titanic

just kidding.

[NewJeffCT]

33. Return of the Jedi

Only if Lucas can hire a good scriptwriter & farm out the directing to somebody else.

[geardaddy]

34. Stripes

This time they go to Iran from Iraq. "C'mon, it's Iran. We zip in, we pick 'em up, we zip right out again. We're not going to Beijing. It's Iran. It's like going into Wisconsin."

[opiate69]

35. Airheads...

I think it`d be fun to revisit Chazz, Rex and Pip after their success faded... maybe a storyline involving Chazz trying to keep Kayla from leaving him by putting together a reunion.. I picture Rex being the type who hangs out in clubs trying to use his past fame to pick up women and Pip living in some new-age "woo" type commune lol

[sarge43]

36. Dangerous Liaisons

Dogma

Galaxy Quest

LA Confidential

The Sting

Priscilla: Queen of the Desert

[gratuitous]

44. There was a sequel to The Sting

And, like the sequel to Chinatown, it's best forgotten.

[sarge43]

45. You're right. Then let's say, good sequels. n/t

[RedCloud]

40. The Day the Earth Stood Still...

With the Moon mocking the Earth and shooting rocket bombs at us while we are frozen in our tracks and understand not to ever, ever ever mess with the Moon.

[annabanana]

43. TRUMAN!

I would LOVE to see what happened to him after he got out of the artificial world. He would have immediately been swallowed by the media.. Would that one girl who really cared for him have been able to protect him?

[CRK7376]

46. Open Range

but my wife would be laughing and crying hysterically if that happened. I've watch the original just a few times to put it mildly. She liked once kind of, but after watching me watch it numerous times she laughs. So for Costner and Duvall to make a sequeal would be fun...The cattle drive goes on and the guys return to own the saloon/law enforcement....
