Movies That Deserve Sequel\'s That Never Got Them
 
Post your ideas of Movies that were set up for Sequels and never got them.

My Pic

The Last Starfighter (1984)

IMO this was the greatest movie of all time.

It had EVERYTHING Action, Drama, Dreams, Hopes, Fresh Story, Great Actors, Great Villians.

It was the first Movie ever to use CGI Spaceships. Go Gunstars [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The movie MADE MONEY back in 1984 terms it made GOOD money.

The problem is no sequel was ever made no follow up books were ever made !!!! WTF.

The movie Ends with the MAIN VILLIAN GETTING AWAY.

The movie Ends with the good guys little brother playing the same video game that got him into space.

Alex and Maggie just fly off into space and that's it..... ARRGGGGGGGG I hate movie makers like this.


What other movies deserved to have sequels but never got made.

The Last Starfighter was awesome...nice choice.

I would've loved if Blade Runner could've kept going for more installments...

Dom, you're so unimaginative. The sequel would follow Luke's illegitimate son, Frank. The movie would climax with a memorable scene featuring Frank devouring 2000 chicken wings, once and for all proving that the chicken came after the egg.

I know there was a sequel to Westworld, named Futureworld, but I still feel a remake of Westworld with CGI and a great cast would be very awesome.

EDIT - After doing some googling it appears a remake is indeed in the making, with a release scheduled for 2007, yay!

I would have loved to have seen the film of the Vega brothers that Tarantino used to go on about. That'd be a prequel though.


I'd also like to see the further adventures of George Clooney's character in 'From Dusk Till Dawn'.


On a cheesier level, I quite liked the characters of the vampire hunters in Blade 3, played by Ryan Reynolds and one of the Jessicas (I can't remember which one), and would go see a spin-off with those 2.


Blade 3 rocked, btw.

A much longer thread could be had by retitling this "Movies That Got Sequels That Didn't Deserve Them". Of course, this would be 90% of the sequels ever made.

They really should have made a sequel or two. Too bad they never did.

The Jessica you refer to is Jessica Biel. I like her and I like Ryan Reynolds, but I didn't like Blade 3. Maybe I wasn't in the mood to watch it, as I can see how the movie could be funny and entertaining if seen in the right mood.

I meant with a group of friends that likes laughing at nonsense. I guess drunk is a possibility, but I don't drink so I just meant in a mood of laughing at nonsense.

Haha, this was pretty much my thought process when posting the image. But I still think it deserves a sequel!

This deserves a revival of the TV series for sure.

My nomination:

Maverick

They even set it up for one with the way the movie ended. They obviously intended to make a sequel, but it never happened.

Freddy Vs Jason

This was the best movie of either series with the possible exception of Freddy's Dead (Due to some of the funniest freddy kills of all time)

The movie was a HUGE moneymaker fans love to see these two giants battle and the way the movie ended allows for a sequel (Both endings allowed for a sequel if you have the special edition DVD.
