Your most-wanted sequel?

Name one movie, and please only one, that you would give anything to get a sequel.

My vote: Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World. It was supposed to be a franchise but fell short. I so love that movie.

Yours?

Would love to see the third film in the Danny Embling trilogy, from John Duigan.

I'd like to see a Lethal Weapon 5...although I'd like for it to be a "passing of the torch" kind of movie.

A real sequel to "Prometheus". Also, a follow-up to "Dredd". Sometime within a year after that was released, I read somewhere they were talking about a possible straight to Netflix sequel. And then, nothing.

Good one.

How about a sequel to Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow? Maybe it's too late.

It would never happen, but I could watch a dozen movies with the crew from Sneakers and never get bored.

I wonder what it would be like to get another sequel from The Hustler and The Color of Money.

Re: Your most-wanted sequel?

Probably a given as per my User Name, but I would love a sequel to The Goonies. It's been rumoured from time to time, and supposedly some story proposals have been made (and, who knows, maybe scripts have been attempted)...But I would love to see an adventure with the original cast as adults along with their children (or something of that nature)...I just think the nostalgia that that sort of movie would generate would be great, so long as it's tackled by a good writer (maybe the original writer, Chris Columbus could come up with something) along with a solid director...

Re: Your most-wanted sequel?

Close Encounters of the Third Kind - Where did Roy go or Roy returns
Last Action Hero - so many possibilities if we follow the ticket and a new owner through different genres
Big Trouble in Little China - but with a different chinatown and a different hero and then Jack Burton makes a cameo to tie it all together.

Blame Warners. There was a script, both Gibson and Glover were ready to do it, and Richard Donner wanted to direct. Warners said no. That said, seeing Glover recently in Jumanji: The Next Level, he's definitely too old for this sh*t.

HOWEVER, take this grain of salt for what it's worth. There's mostly smoke here, but there may be some fire:

Re: Your most-wanted sequel?

Most of the movies I want sequels to can't be done because the opportunity passed long ago:

Planes, Trains & Automobiles (John Candy no longer with us)
Shoot to Kill (Sidney Poitier long retired/now in his 90s)
Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (Bob Hoskins no longer with us/Warners and Disney will never share characters again)

Re: Your most-wanted sequel?

Tough to list only one, but I’d say Escape From Earth. Although it’s probably too late for Kurt to play Snake, i’d really like to see one last Carpenter/Russell pairing.

Natural Born Killers.
Whether it's about Mickey and Mallory, or some others, doesn't really matter. I think there's a modern story that could/should be told in similar context (and maybe even style, but even Oliver Stone himself didn't quite replicate it as well with U-Turn​ or anything since).

And no, Joker isn't the type of thing I'm talking about.

And I'd love to see an animated trilogy of Star Wars sequels of Splinter of the Mind's Eye (sequel to ANH), Shadows of the Empire (sequel to TESB) and Dark Empire (sequel to ROTJ).
