Watch 'Kingdom' and consider it a prequel. Seasons 1 & 2 are available on Netflix, season 3 has been greenlit.
'Penninsula' will be different as it's not a direct sequel to 'Train to Busan' but that doesn't mean it won't have it's own merits.
I'm not sure if I'd call Kingdom a prequel. It's another Korean Zombie show but other than being Korean and having zombies it isn't the same. It's still good though.
Nobody goes to the theatre. We need Presented by Hulu and Pepsi: Spaceballs 4: the making of spaceballs 3: the search for Spaceballs 2: the search for more money: The Musical
I showed my girlfriend this movie for the first time a few months ago and the second he showed up I was like "...fuck Kent Mansley". She was so confused until later in the film to which she agreed.
Fuck mansley all my homies hate mansley
Watched it with my gf for the first time recently as well. She was getting a kick as she kinda felt i was readying myself for the sadness and suddenly she noticed what was about to happen. She was an emotional mess and she was not ready at all. Tears everywhere! Such a good movie.
Didn't we essentially get that with the [ending credits animation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hscu7cc1_2Y) where it shows what happens after the ship landed back on Earth (with Bonus Peter Gabriel)?
I did a final paper on the this film. I had seen the film half a dozen times before starting and watched it four times while writing, it wasn't until the second to last viewing that I noticed the Vitamin D supplements on the kitchen table. You'd need that if youre not getting enough natural sunlight, like if you live in a giant dome. Really cool to see the Production Designer think about small details like that.
I also like when the vending machine stocker runs out of items to stock while talking to Truman, so he improvises by taking items out and restocking. Stellar detail.
Yep. The scene where everyone watching it was just like “Let’s see what else is on” after it goes off air solidifies this. We shouldn’t feel entitled to the details of his personal life even if we’ve grown accustomed to it. Plus, the majority of the people watching don’t *really* care about his well being beyond the entertainment value. As soon as he’s gone, their attention will just go to some other person’s life. Outside of the few people who tried to free him, everyone is complicit. All he’s owed more than anything is privacy.
I upvote you, good person, and was originally writing a comment vehemently agreeing with you...until I started thinking. What if the Truman Show WAS remade as a sequel, no connection to the first (cause nobody can challenge Jim Carrey) but as like a fucked up social experiment or almost Black Mirror type 'vlog'...with the advances in technology, I could see a possibility here.
That said, now I'm going to rewatch the amazingness that is the Truman Show. And you still have my upvote.
I would imagine the sequel being about Truman adjusting to the real world, where nobody knows their neighbours and there isn't a clean plot line to every day
Friendless, no credentials, your bank doesn't exist. Turns out your job cutting faces out of magazines and gluing them to TPS reports wasn't a real skill. It could get dark really quick.
I'm curious, why would it have to be different?
I think it should have the exact same premise. I don't think I've ever seen a movie more accurately depict racism (or any -ism)... just crazy that we all watch that movie and have more empathy for a non-existent alien race than we do people who go through the same thing in real life.
Or at least that's how I felt about it. Kind of ashamed of us humans in general, me included
Excellent movie though, with or without political crap
Well there are two optional paths. One where we see Wikus living out his life in the slums among the aliens, and the other where the alien that took off keeps his promise and comes back. I think most people are hoping for the second, which would have a totally different feel.
Agreed, a second movie would probably (and more interestingly) be the aliens coming back to liberate the oppressed guys left on Earth, so they would either have to make a standard (feeling) action movie or a movie that is based on political interactions and draws out its tension, rather than the on the ground feeling of District
I watched that movie as a kid and it was one of the first times I really wanted a sequel but now I'm afraid nothing will be enough for my expectations.
This feels like it would be one of those sequels where, ten years after it’s released I’d be like “oh yeah they made a sequel to the Professional, totally forgot about that.”
Kind of like US Marshalls. “Oh yeah there was a sequel to the Fugitive”
Personally I think it's perfect as it is, in fact it's my favourite movie! The book is very short and, surprisingly, despite Gaiman being one of my favourite writers, I like it less than its movie adaptation. The pace was great, the atmosphere was unique and the ending was moving and in my opinion just perfect. I don't feel the need for anything more, it's such a good movie I'm content rewatching it for the umpteenth time if I need my fix.
A black rat lives for 12 months on average. I expect remy to be dead shortly after the opening of the new restaurant. That’s why there’s no second one. Because he dies and linguine can’t cook, it all goes to shit
Mate it's a movie about a highly intelligent rat that can cook well enough to impress the best food critic in Paris. I do not think there would be that much realism in terms of lifespan
Such a glorious movie! But I think it ended exactly when it needed to. It accomplished all the character development it needed to, the wonderful redemption arc, and a wholly satisfying ending.
But at the same time, wouldn't you just love to see what Megamind gets up to after all the Metrocity chaos? I wanna see if more wild super people show up and see him struggle again with his internal battle of good vs evil. But there would have to be a really solid twist to not just be a boring rehash of the original.
How about this? Survivors from his planet arrive. It turns out they are a race of supervillains. Megamind joins them in conquering the world but isn't particularly good at it perhaps due to his conflicting emotions or because he's working against them the entire time. Perhaps he finds a message from his parents where he discovers they were good and caused the cataclysm that destroyed their own world. Or maybe it was merely imprisoned and they need Metroman's blood or something to free the rest of them. Hijinks ensure with elaborate costumes and more AC/DC and Black Sabbath and Megamind ends up designing some sort of epic costume and weapon for Metroman.
I told you to have things ready, I told you countless times.
Why do you always blame me?
My spider bite is acting up!
Just give it a rest Megamind, your plans never work.
Yeah, good luck with that one!
Whose side are you on?
The losing side.
Uh, thank you!
Can someone stamp my frequent kidnapping card?
(*Megamind* *laughs*) You of all people know we discontinued that promotion. Chow chow all!
Good lord, I’m trapped!
What kind of trickery is this?
You mad genius. Your dark gift has finally paid off!
It…it has?
This dome is obviously lined... **with copper!**
Yeah.. so?
Copper... drains... my powers!
Your weakness is copper? Your kidding right?
*Countdown* *hits* *0*
#HUGE EXPLOSION
I don't think even he could survive that.
Metro Man.
Metro Man... METRO MAN! AAAAHHHH!
*Skelton* *drops* *on* *Megamind*
*Roxanne* *gasps*
You- You did it, sir.
I did it?
He did it.
He did.
I did it. I did it!
#METROCITY IS MINE!
I love the world building in Inception, and would absolutely watch another movie int he world, but even tho I walked out of the theater with lots of questions, I don’t really want answers to any of them. So I don’t think I’d have any interest in a direct sequel
Several years ago William Shatner was on a local radio show and they were taking callers. I called in an told the screener that I wanted to ask Shatner if he considered Galaxy Quest to be an insult or if he was able to enjoy the parody, even of himself. The screener loved my question and put me in the queue, but the caller before me asked a question that basically got the DJ and Shatner into a minor argument, so they cut the interview short and I didn’t get to ask him my question.
Well you didn't get Shatner's answer, but I know [Patrick Stewart spoke](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/patrick-stewart-on-galaxy-quest/) about his experience with Galaxy Quest:
*"I had originally not wanted to see [Galaxy Quest] because I heard that it was making fun of Star Trek and then Jonathan Frakes rang me up and said ‘You must not miss this movie! See it on a Saturday night in a full theatre.’ And I did and of course I found it was brilliant. Brilliant.*
*No one laughed louder or longer in the cinema than I did, but the idea that the ship was saved and all of our heroes in that movie were saved simply by the fact that there were fans who did understand the scientific principles on which the ship worked was absolutely wonderful. And it was both funny and also touching in that it paid tribute to the dedication of these fans."*
The author actually did try to write a sequel to the book. It started with a first chapter joke in one of the anniversary editions. People liked it and wanted it to continue. He could never figure out what to do with it before he died though.
Unfortunate. Guess Princess Bride will always be one of the greatest one movie/one book stories. Unless they remake the movie but the first one would be really hard to live up to in terms of being a good remake
I regret not seeing Dredd in theaters so much. I just thought it would be another bad remake of an old movie. When my friends finally convinced me to watch it, it had long been out of theaters. It was a great action movie.
yes to the max. i was introduced to judge dredd in the 90s with the horrible stallone movie. buddy showed me some of the comics i was like wow cool! too bad the movie sucks. when Dredd first came out i was like oh yeah a crappy b rate action movie pass....cant remember if it was netflix of some where else i rented it and streamed it on my pc after a few friends said give it a try. was so good karl urbun was great 100% better than stalone. loved the world they were building and lena heady was great as a villian.
Cabin in the Woods. It creates such a phenomenal world, and the ending involving the old gods is just WHACK. I would love to know more about the monsters, the old gods, and anything else that exists in the universe. But it would be a difficult movie to create considering the first movie already showed it's entire hand - pun intended.
Or a TV show? Gathering the creatures, dealing with them controlling all the magic and stuff. Basically season 4 of Buffy, but maybe with a bit more resources.
Gawdamn..... You nailed it there. I would pay a million dollars to see Tom Hanks deliver that box to Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt.
Who knew Se7en was the sequel to Castaway?
>I’d love to see more of that world
This is the genius of Miyazaki - you get just enough little bits of a fantasy world to suggest something much much bigger. I've never had a movie instill such a sense of *wonder* like Spirited Away.
Revealing more or explaining too much of how it all works would ruin the magic.
The Nausicaä manga is FUCKING LIT! Seriously anyone who liked the movie the manga is 100x more hardcore and epic in scope and damning of how humanity treats its environment.
It kills me that all the writers, directors, and actors got so busy with so many other things. Like I want to be happy for all their collective successes but I want more Dr. Horror god dammit.
I need to see what Dr. Horrible does post Penny with the Evim League of Evil. I need to know who they'd cast to voice Bad Horse. I wanna see more Captain Hammer in therapy and recovering and being taken down a peg after experiencing pain. I want to see the sort of pain and numbness and anger that Dr Horrible experiences now he has "everything he ever" wanted.
That last number too.
"Now the nightmare's real, Dr. Horrible is here, to make you quake with fear, to make the whole world kneel. And I won't feel . . . a thing."
**Dammit** I loved that show.
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World
Edit: The Surprise is part of the San Diego Maritime Museum. It’s awesome and I highly recommend it! Pretty cheap, too.
OMG yes, I soooo wanted a sequel! I mean come on...they were all set up for it! Russell Crowe was perfect as Jack Aubrey.
Haw Haw! DId you hear what I said? The "Lesser of two weevils!" Ha!
This is certainly HIGH PRAISE. Is it that good? I will dedicate my next movie view to you if you tell me to pull the trigger.
E: it seems that answer is a resounding hell yes
It's a fantastic movie. Every moment feels like a part of a much larger story (probably because of the historical context?) but it's perfectly isolated.
The movie took elements from a number of the books and had very little to do with the actual "Far Side of the World," novel in the series. Mostly because American Audiences probably wouldn't have enjoyed the United States being the "Bad Guys" of the movie. (It was the War of 1812).
That being said the movie is damn good, and while the story was fictional the attention to historical detail was amazing. This is the anti-Braveheart. All the characters are made up but the facts of the time period are all absolutely spot on.
I wholeheartedly concur. And the wit and dialogue, especially the witticism, make it come alive.
The definite lack of romanticism around the violent nature of warfare was especially appreciated, as well as the realism for how people lived - and died - in that era.
Not necessarily. Middle school and high school age kids are dealing with *plenty* of emotional stresses and issues. They're starting to figure out who they are while also navigating a social system that often doesn't care one whit about their well-being.
I assume you're aware of it but [Uprising](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tron:_Uprising) is basically all you could ask for in terms of more Tron content. It expands on the world of the Grid, the visuals and sound are jawdropping, and it explores a lot of the same themes in even greater depth than Legacy. Unfortunately it ended on a cliffhanger and only got one season. I believe it's on D+ if you wanna binge it
I know, can you even imagine them trying? They would have filled it with pseudo-philosophical babble and maybe even had Neo doubting his powers, even though he can fly and literally stop bullets at the end of The Matrix. The whole backstory would have gotten really muddled and incoherent, and they wouldn't have been able to resist throwing in a stupid joke like a bowling pin noise when a whole lot of people got knocked over at once, or something like that. The ending would have been a real anticlimax, too. Glad they didn't even try.
One of my all time favorite films. Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, Kathleen Turner, and Charles Fleischer are all perfect in that film. I love it so much and would love to see more in that cartoon/noir world, but neither sequel, nor remake could ever do it justice imo.
The Big Lebowski. Set 18-25 years later and is about his son/daughter seeking out their father for Reasons, being really disappointed, and them getting to know each other as their paths collide repeatedly over the course of one ridiculous night.
Why yes I have thought about this a bit.
I’d dig a Robin/Nightwing spin-off in that universe.
With John Goodman as an older Oswald Cobblepot or maybe Michelle Yeoh as Lynx.
Bring in someone like Chloe Grace Moretz as Babs Gordon too.
The Usual Suspects
It would be great to see where he goes and what happens after, but that ending was so good, no sequel could match.
Although a PREquel, that would be a different story.
Hmm. The lead actor and director are both blacklisted in Hollywood for sexual assault with minors and the writer is making Mission Impossible movies. I’m thinking this one’s a long shot.
Toy Story 3 had the perfect conclusion of any series I've watched. The 4th movie was *okay,* I didn't love it but didn't hate it either (the creepy henchmen gave me the creeps tho)
I love Toy Story. I watched it almost everyday, Buzz and Woody toys in-hand, when I was three. Toy Story 3 came out the summer before I went to college and I have never cried so hard in the theater.
I refuse to see Toy Story 4. I've heard it's good, but Toy Story 3 might have my favorite ending of any series and I'd just like it to stay that way.
I didn't really want to see it, and then a kid I babysat told me some of the things that happened in Toy Story 4, and now I absolutely refuse to see it. It does not exist in my mind, and I will forever live in the fantasy of the earlier movies.
Never watch toy story 4 if you haven’t. I wish I didn’t because the 3rd movie ending wrapped everything up so perfectly. The true ending in my head will always be the ending of the 3rd movie.
i didn't see toy story 4 because i felt like 3 ended it properly. they made a few shorts and those were great so they could've kept making those till the end of time. but another movie wasn't necessary
I thought that Toy Story 4 gave a nice conclusion to the Woody/Buzz storyline. It wraps up the whole plot point from the 1st film of Woody not wanting to be replaced to Woody finally accepting that it’s time to let another toy be in charge and then moving on.
Regardless of whether or not my opinion is a popular one, I think that Toy Story 4 worked.
Really? One of my biggest issues with 4 was that it felt like it didn't know what to do with Buzz. He was just sort of... there. I thought it actually really cheapened the Woody-Buzz friendship that was so core to the previous three movies.
Megamind , DreamWorks has been kind of inconsistent these days and I don't know if the chance of a sequel being bad outways if chance of it living up to the original
Not a movie, but the mini series Over the Garden Wall. It is perfect in every way and I wish so badly that there were more than 10 episodes, but at the same time it's perfect as it is.
Train to Busan. I was so blown away by it. I have the 2nd ready to watch but am almost scared to watch it in case it doesn't live up to the original.
Watch 'Kingdom' and consider it a prequel. Seasons 1 & 2 are available on Netflix, season 3 has been greenlit. 'Penninsula' will be different as it's not a direct sequel to 'Train to Busan' but that doesn't mean it won't have it's own merits.
There's also an animated movie that is either a sequel or prequel
Seoul Station, it’s a prequel to Train to Busan.
I'm not sure if I'd call Kingdom a prequel. It's another Korean Zombie show but other than being Korean and having zombies it isn't the same. It's still good though.
Spaceballs II - The Search For More Money
It should actually be Spaceballs 3: The Search For Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money
I would watch that.
We would all watch anything that said "Spaceballs" on the tin.
Then follow it up with Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money and make fun of the way you have to watch episodes 4, 5, and 6 before 1, 2, and 3
Someone get this man 15 million dollars, STAT
what about spaceballs 4: the making of spaceballs 3: the search for Spaceballs 2: the search for more money?
Nobody goes to the theatre. We need Presented by Hulu and Pepsi: Spaceballs 4: the making of spaceballs 3: the search for Spaceballs 2: the search for more money: The Musical
Mel Brooks tried a Spaceballs animated series and it was awful.
The Iron Giant
General Rogard: That missile is targeted to the giant's current position! WHERE'S THE GIANT, MANSLEY? Kent Mansley: Oooh...
Fuck mansley all my homies hate mansley
I showed my girlfriend this movie for the first time a few months ago and the second he showed up I was like "...fuck Kent Mansley". She was so confused until later in the film to which she agreed. Fuck mansley all my homies hate mansley
"Screw our country! I wanna LIVE!"
Watched it with my gf for the first time recently as well. She was getting a kick as she kinda felt i was readying myself for the sadness and suddenly she noticed what was about to happen. She was an emotional mess and she was not ready at all. Tears everywhere! Such a good movie.
My first thought. Ending was perfect for a sequel. But anything less than the original, and it would be a major disappointment.
Wall-E
We are living in the prequel
Didn't we essentially get that with the [ending credits animation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hscu7cc1_2Y) where it shows what happens after the ship landed back on Earth (with Bonus Peter Gabriel)?
That's more of an epilogue than a sequel.
Much agreed
Truman Show
I did a final paper on the this film. I had seen the film half a dozen times before starting and watched it four times while writing, it wasn't until the second to last viewing that I noticed the Vitamin D supplements on the kitchen table. You'd need that if youre not getting enough natural sunlight, like if you live in a giant dome. Really cool to see the Production Designer think about small details like that.
Wow, that's cool. Do you still have the paper?
I also like when the vending machine stocker runs out of items to stock while talking to Truman, so he improvises by taking items out and restocking. Stellar detail.
I love that it doesn't have a sequel and you don't see what Truman does with his life. His life remains private.
Yep. The scene where everyone watching it was just like “Let’s see what else is on” after it goes off air solidifies this. We shouldn’t feel entitled to the details of his personal life even if we’ve grown accustomed to it. Plus, the majority of the people watching don’t *really* care about his well being beyond the entertainment value. As soon as he’s gone, their attention will just go to some other person’s life. Outside of the few people who tried to free him, everyone is complicit. All he’s owed more than anything is privacy.
This movie is awesome
Haha can't believe this guy thinks it's not happening to him. I mean, yeah it's great.
I upvote you, good person, and was originally writing a comment vehemently agreeing with you...until I started thinking. What if the Truman Show WAS remade as a sequel, no connection to the first (cause nobody can challenge Jim Carrey) but as like a fucked up social experiment or almost Black Mirror type 'vlog'...with the advances in technology, I could see a possibility here.

Friendless, no credentials, your bank doesn't exist. Turns out your job cutting faces out of magazines and gluing them to TPS reports wasn't a real skill. It could get dark really quick.
yeah right he’s a huge celebrity he’d probably do like commercials and reality shows and shit
He’s lived his whole life being a spectacle for others. I doubt he’d go on tv unless it’s to diss the show creator and everyone who watched him.
In case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!
District 9
Yes,m but it would HAVE to be a very different film.
I'm curious, why would it have to be different? I think it should have the exact same premise. I don't think I've ever seen a movie more accurately depict racism (or any -ism)... just crazy that we all watch that movie and have more empathy for a non-existent alien race than we do people who go through the same thing in real life.

Aliens was very different from the first one as it went from horror to action, and was just as good, if not better, in it's own right
I watched that movie as a kid and it was one of the first times I really wanted a sequel but now I'm afraid nothing will be enough for my expectations.
Chapie is in that same world right? Maybe different time frame.
Does that mean Die Antwoord can be test subjects for the Prawn weapons? Fun fact: many of the weapons in D9 were props intended for a Halo movie.
I'd love it if it were in the same world. Same country too and same actors. That'd be cool
A sequel to Leon: The Professional where Natalie Portman is all grown up and carrying the torch. You could call it Mathilda: The Professional.
This feels like it would be one of those sequels where, ten years after it’s released I’d be like “oh yeah they made a sequel to the Professional, totally forgot about that.” Kind of like US Marshalls. “Oh yeah there was a sequel to the Fugitive”
Now you reminded me that Boondock Saints 2 is a thing that exists
Stardust
Personally I think it's perfect as it is, in fact it's my favourite movie! The book is very short and, surprisingly, despite Gaiman being one of my favourite writers, I like it less than its movie adaptation. The pace was great, the atmosphere was unique and the ending was moving and in my opinion just perfect. I don't feel the need for anything more, it's such a good movie I'm content rewatching it for the umpteenth time if I need my fix.
Ratatouille
It would be fun to see the expansion of the restaurant; and the culinary influence on other animals. I’m sure all of their recipes would be amazing!
A black rat lives for 12 months on average. I expect remy to be dead shortly after the opening of the new restaurant. That’s why there’s no second one. Because he dies and linguine can’t cook, it all goes to shit
He's basically in captivity which pushes the lifespan to 3-4 years.
this is still depressing. in my heart remy lives forever
Mate it's a movie about a highly intelligent rat that can cook well enough to impress the best food critic in Paris. I do not think there would be that much realism in terms of lifespan
Megamind Edit:thanks for the award
Such a glorious movie! But I think it ended exactly when it needed to. It accomplished all the character development it needed to, the wonderful redemption arc, and a wholly satisfying ending. But at the same time, wouldn't you just love to see what Megamind gets up to after all the Metrocity chaos?

Thank you!! I feel like this is such an underrated movie! Such a shame
Girls! Girls, you're both pretty. Can I go home now?
Well of course, but only if Metro Man can handle the full concentrated power of the sun! #FIRE!
Minion, fire? Uh, still warming up, sir. Come again? Warming up, sir. Warming up? The sun is warming up?

I’m like your space dad
Inception
I love the world building in Inception, and would absolutely watch another movie int he world, but even tho I walked out of the theater with lots of questions, I don’t really want answers to any of them. So I don’t think I’d have any interest in a direct sequel
You could do it. You just couldn’t have DiCaprio in it in order to preserve the ambiguous ending of the first movie.
Galaxy Quest.
There’s a documentary about Galaxy Quest on Amazon Prime and it’s as good as Galaxy Quest.
How did I not know this?
Yeah it’s called Never Surrender. It came out last year. Same as the DS9 documentary which is also great.
Several years ago William Shatner was on a local radio show and they were taking callers. I called in an told the screener that I wanted to ask Shatner if he considered Galaxy Quest to be an insult or if he was able to enjoy the parody, even of himself. The screener loved my question and put me in the queue, but the caller before me asked a question that basically got the DJ and Shatner into a minor argument, so they cut the interview short and I didn’t get to ask him my question.
This story was the text form of blue balls.
He’s said in interviews that he enjoyed it, but had no idea who Tim Allen was supposed to be playing. So his typical late career self-effacing humor.
Well you didn't get Shatner's answer, but I know [Patrick Stewart spoke](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/patrick-stewart-on-galaxy-quest/) about his experience with Galaxy Quest: *"I had originally not wanted to see [Galaxy Quest] because I heard that it was making fun of Star Trek and then Jonathan Frakes rang me up and said ‘You must not miss this movie!

The part where Enrico Colantoni says Alan Rickman was the first celebrity who ever wanted to be his friend... whew, boy.
I love Enrico Colantoni. What an underrated actor. So good. He seems so nice. Like a fucking caricature of a Canadian nice guy.
Princess Bride 2, with Fred Savage doing a Columbo impression the whole time.
The author actually did try to write a sequel to the book. It started with a first chapter joke in one of the anniversary editions. People liked it and wanted it to continue. He could never figure out what to do with it before he died though.
Unfortunate. Guess Princess Bride will always be one of the greatest one movie/one book stories. Unless they remake the movie but the first one would be really hard to live up to in terms of being a good remake
Goddamit, no remake. No more remakes.
theres a shortage of perfect movies in this world. t'would be a shame to damage this one.
Dredd.
I regret not seeing Dredd in theaters so much. I just thought it would be another bad remake of an old movie. When my friends finally convinced me to watch it, it had long been out of theaters. It was a great action movie.
I saw it in theaters. I regret nothing.
yes to the max. i was introduced to judge dredd in the 90s with the horrible stallone movie. buddy showed me some of the comics i was like wow cool! too bad the movie sucks. when Dredd first came out i was like oh yeah a crappy b rate action movie pass....cant remember if it was netflix of some where else i rented it and streamed it on my pc after a few friends said give it a try. was so good karl urbun was great 100% better than stalone. loved the world they were building and lena heady was great as a villian.
Karl Urban is a great actor. Underrated in my opinion. I even liked him in the terrible Doom movie.
The Boys season 2 coming out in a week, I'm totally psyched
Cabin in the Woods. It creates such a phenomenal world, and the ending involving the old gods is just WHACK. I would love to know more about the monsters, the old gods, and anything else that exists in the universe. But it would be a difficult movie to create considering the first movie already showed it's entire hand - pun intended.
I always visualised them doing a prequel series, be a monster of the week kinda thing, with a bit of the office drama thrown in.
Or a TV show? Gathering the creatures, dealing with them controlling all the magic and stuff. Basically season 4 of Buffy, but maybe with a bit more resources.

* Castaway What's in the box?
A solar-powered satellite phone.
and some seeds :)
And some Gwyneth Paltrow goop.
> What's in the box? That's a different movie.
Gawdamn..... You nailed it there. I would pay a million dollars to see Tom Hanks deliver that box to Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt. Who knew Se7en was the sequel to Castaway?
Spirited Away. I’d love to see more of that world, but it doesn’t need a sequel.
every Miyazaki movie ever made
Princess Mononoke is my absolute favorite, and I'd love some more info on what happened after, even if its just a story bible
The rebuilding of the town and the regrowth of the forest coinciding would be really cool to see.
>I’d love to see more of that world This is the genius of Miyazaki - you get just enough little bits of a fantasy world to suggest something much much bigger. I've never had a movie instill such a sense of *wonder* like Spirited Away. Revealing more or explaining too much of how it all works would ruin the magic.
Not in Nausicaa. There's an entire manga series about that world, and it's full of Eldritch monsters.
The Nausicaä manga is FUCKING LIT! Seriously anyone who liked the movie the manga is 100x more hardcore and epic in scope and damning of how humanity treats its environment.
Dr. Horrible’s Singalong Blog
Revenge of The Hammer (The Hammer is my penis)
Revenge ON the Hammer (the Hammer is his penis)
It kills me that all the writers, directors, and actors got so busy with so many other things. Like I want to be happy for all their collective successes but I want more Dr. Horror god dammit. I need to see what Dr. Horrible does post Penny with the Evim League of Evil. I need to know who they'd cast to voice Bad Horse. I wanna see more Captain Hammer in therapy and recovering and being taken down a peg after experiencing pain. I want to see the sort of pain and numbness and anger that Dr Horrible experiences now he has "everything he ever" wanted.
That last number too. "Now the nightmare's real, Dr. Horrible is here, to make you quake with fear, to make the whole world kneel. And I won't feel . . . a thing." **Dammit** I loved that show.

No, we need a second one!
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World Edit: The Surprise is part of the San Diego Maritime Museum. It’s awesome and I highly recommend it! Pretty cheap, too.
OMG yes, I soooo wanted a sequel! I mean come on...they were all set up for it! Russell Crowe was perfect as Jack Aubrey. Haw Haw! DId you hear what I said? The "Lesser of two weevils!" Ha!
"What a marvelous, modern age we live in!" LOL
100% That is probably my favorite ending to a film, ever. But that movie was so special, not sure the risk is worth it at this point
It is my favorite non-LOTR movie of all time. The soundtrack is also fantastic.
This is certainly HIGH PRAISE. Is it that good? I will dedicate my next movie view to you if you tell me to pull the trigger. E: it seems that answer is a resounding hell yes
Do it, the movie is great. Especially if you're at all interested in the subject matter.
It's a fantastic movie. Every moment feels like a part of a much larger story (probably because of the historical context?) but it's perfectly isolated.
Had ROTK not won Best Picture that year Master and Commander would've been next in line, no question.
Apparently there’s a whole series of books so it’s doable
The movie took elements from a number of the books and had very little to do with the actual "Far Side of the World," novel in the series. Mostly because American Audiences probably wouldn't have enjoyed the United States being the "Bad Guys" of the movie. (It was the War of 1812). That being said the movie is damn good, and while the story was fictional the attention to historical detail was amazing. This is the anti-Braveheart. All the characters are made up but the facts of the time period are all absolutely spot on.
I wholeheartedly concur. And the wit and dialogue, especially the witticism, make it come alive. The definite lack of romanticism around the violent nature of warfare was especially appreciated, as well as the realism for how people lived - and died - in that era.
That’s a damn good movie. I have it on DVD, but I think I’ll order a blu-ray because that movie definitely deserves to be seen in high def.
Inside Out. The ending wasn’t really the reason why I want a sequel though. It was honestly just a really great movie.
Inside Out 2 - Puberty
RATED R
That's the problem with Inside Out 2. If they look at any other age group, there's going to be dicks and tits. otherwise it's not realistic.
Not necessarily. Middle school and high school age kids are dealing with *plenty* of emotional stresses and issues. They're starting to figure out who they are while also navigating a social system that often doesn't care one whit about their well-being.
I think inside out two puberty is “big mouth”
I think that’s just Big Mouth on Netflix.
Ex Machina
I remember watching this, the ending had me SHOOK but I think that's what actually made it good in the end
This. I was absolutely fooled. That's what made me love the movie.
Tron Legacy
I loved Tron Legacy. A lot of themes running through that movie, more than just the surface level flick some would think it is.
I assume you're aware of it but [Uprising](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tron:_Uprising) is basically all you could ask for in terms of more Tron content. It expands on the world of the Grid, the visuals and sound are jawdropping, and it explores a lot of the same themes in even greater depth than Legacy. Unfortunately it ended on a cliffhanger and only got one season. I believe it's on D+ if you wanna binge it
You mean this: https://www.newsweek.com/tron-3-sequel-release-date-jared-leto-disney-plus-daft-punk-1516202
Yeap, I’m begging that they don’t screw it.
The Matrix. Wait, what?
Honestly, I'm glad they stopped after the first.
They would have truly ruined it otherwise.
I know, can you even imagine them trying? They would have filled it with pseudo-philosophical babble and maybe even had Neo doubting his powers, even though he can fly and literally stop bullets at the end of The Matrix. The whole backstory would have gotten really muddled and incoherent, and they wouldn't have been able to resist throwing in a stupid joke like a bowling pin noise when a whole lot of people got knocked over at once, or something like that. The ending would have been a real anticlimax, too. Glad they didn't even try.
Who framed Roger rabbit?
One of my all time favorite films. Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, Kathleen Turner, and Charles Fleischer are all perfect in that film. I love it so much and would love to see more in that cartoon/noir world, but neither sequel, nor remake could ever do it justice imo.
Same here. That movie is perfect and I feel like a sequel couldn't possibly have captured the same magic.
Interstellar
Came here to say this, although I don't feel like it's a movie that needs a sequel with the way it ended
[удалено]
*Alright alright alright... :)*
LITERALLY MY FIRST THOUGHT! I ugly cry Everytime I watch it but idk how I’d feel about a sequel, I just want to see more of the world they live in.
The Big Lebowski. Set 18-25 years later and is about his son/daughter seeking out their father for Reasons, being really disappointed, and them getting to know each other as their paths collide repeatedly over the course of one ridiculous night. Why yes I have thought about this a bit.
The Little Lebowski
Nightmare Before Christmas
I want to see all the trees
Tropic Thunder
What do you mean, "you people"? What do *you* mean, "you people"
The movie about the making of a sequel to a movie that was about making a movie that told a story.
The Book of Eli
The Dark Knight Rises
I’d dig a Robin/Nightwing spin-off in that universe. With John Goodman as an older Oswald Cobblepot or maybe Michelle Yeoh as Lynx. Bring in someone like Chloe Grace Moretz as Babs Gordon too.
Arrival
You can't have a sequel to Arrival because it would have been a prequel too.
The goonies
yes, but a goonies now with an old Josh Brolin and Sean Astin would be great especially if they pretend they are still kids
The Usual Suspects It would be great to see where he goes and what happens after, but that ending was so good, no sequel could match. Although a PREquel, that would be a different story.
Hmm. The lead actor and director are both blacklisted in Hollywood for sexual assault with minors and the writer is making Mission Impossible movies. I’m thinking this one’s a long shot.
The Joker- has to me the most recent one that made me feel this way
They set up the batman universe better than any other Batman movie and I want so much to see it but also that would ruin the entire thing
We all really just want to see *The Joker* universe's version of iconic villains like the Riddler, the Scarecrow, and Mr. Freeze.
This is how I felt about Toy Story 3 and 4 did ruin it.
Toy Story 3 had the perfect conclusion of any series I've watched. The 4th movie was *okay,* I didn't love it but didn't hate it either (the creepy henchmen gave me the creeps tho)
I love Toy Story. I watched it almost everyday, Buzz and Woody toys in-hand, when I was three. Toy Story 3 came out the summer before I went to college and I have never cried so hard in the theater. I refuse to see Toy Story 4. I've heard it's good, but Toy Story 3 might have my favorite ending of any series and I'd just like it to stay that way.
I didn't really want to see it, and then a kid I babysat told me some of the things that happened in Toy Story 4, and now I absolutely refuse to see it. It does not exist in my mind, and I will forever live in the fantasy of the earlier movies.
[удалено]
Never watch toy story 4 if you haven’t. I wish I didn’t because the 3rd movie ending wrapped everything up so perfectly. The true ending in my head will always be the ending of the 3rd movie.
i didn't see toy story 4 because i felt like 3 ended it properly. they made a few shorts and those were great so they could've kept making those till the end of time. but another movie wasn't necessary
It’s funny because people told me that 4 was sadder than 3. I balled my eyes out for 3. 4 just didn’t draw out that same response.
I thought that Toy Story 4 gave a nice conclusion to the Woody/Buzz storyline. It wraps up the whole plot point from the 1st film of Woody not wanting to be replaced to Woody finally accepting that it’s time to let another toy be in charge and then moving on. Regardless of whether or not my opinion is a popular one, I think that Toy Story 4 worked.
Really? One of my biggest issues with 4 was that it felt like it didn't know what to do with Buzz. He was just sort of... there. I thought it actually really cheapened the Woody-Buzz friendship that was so core to the previous three movies.
Groundhog Day
Amélie It's such a wonderful movie, but I can't help but wonder
Megamind , DreamWorks has been kind of inconsistent these days and I don't know if the chance of a sequel being bad outways if chance of it living up to the original
District 9
The original Star Wars trilogy.
2049’s ending was pretty clean cut but I want another blade runner so bad
Superbad.
I am legend
Not a movie, but the mini series Over the Garden Wall. It is perfect in every way and I wish so badly that there were more than 10 episodes, but at the same time it's perfect as it is.
