Longest time between SEQUELS?
 
Off the top of your head, which movie franchise has had the longest amount of time between sequels?

I'll start:

I think

Last Picture Show (1971) --> Texasville (1990) = 19 years


Any others?

Your asking this question with two very easy answers from this year.

Rambo III (1988)---------Rambo(2008) 20 years
Indiana Jones TLC(1989)------Indiana Jones KOTCS(2008) 19 years

Spoiler:
Ok, Scarlett was a miniseries for TV but it was still a sequel of sorts

There was a sequel to Birth of a Nation made in 1917. It's lost, though.

My money is on Blues Brothers and Blues Brothers 2000. That's 18 years for a legitimate sequel.

fumanstan 05-28-08 07:47 PM

Ah, you're right! Cool! I lose :(

All these sequels are blasphemies!

Except for The Color of Money.

One more that just occured to me.

Wizard of Oz-1939
Return to Oz- 1985

What about a sequel from the same production team? I don't think the same people who did The Wizard of Oz were involved with Return to Oz. Except for Paul Newman and the novel basis connection, I don't think The Hustler and The Color of Money have any mutual production artists. Hmm...

<---- Still waiting for History of the World Part II to come out. ;)
