Never made sequels....
 

After watching The Goonies the other day, it made me think what other films should have had a sequel, I initially thought about ET or Ghost (possibly based on Whoopi Goldberg's character helping other couples), what do you think?

I reckon a modern day Goonies 2 would be great with all the old cast - Chunk is cool :D

nooooooo Sequels are bad bad bad esp for ET.

ET is perfect NEVER EVER make a sequel to that..... it'll destroy everything and same goes for Ghost.

I've got a great idea for a follow-up (sequel if you like) series to "Minder".

The script's written; all I need to do now is write the theme tune, sing the theme tune.....

Police Academy?

erm.....

Re: Never made sequels....
 

I thought that was already in the footing?

Edit : just found this - apparently it's not happening

Not all sequels are bad... Star Trek II (Wrath of Kahn) is better than Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

As for Ghost & ET, well, I didn't like ET, so any sequel could not be worse than the original for me. Ghost just wouldn't work as a sequel. The original had a sort of magic that was created (IMO) by the casting of Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg. If you remove any of those, it wouldn't work.

James Cameron said in an interview that he was asked to write a sequel to Titanic. He apparently replied "What am I supposed to do, bring the ship back up?"..

Passion of the Christ 2

Jesus is back in Bethlehem after his stint in heaven but finds that an old schoolbuddy has built a casino and the town is going down the toilet. Drugs are being dealt out of Caesars Palace and the Pharisee's refuse to take action, Jesus then grabs a big bit of wood (he was a carpenter after all) and lay's the smack down ... with hilarious consequences.

Would you believe Gibson is considering a sequel based on his resurrection...? :)

Re: Never made sequels....
 

I can believe that, £10 say's he somehow slates the English in it too.

Re: Never made sequels....
 

I'd consider it more as "what films should *never* have had a sequel"!!

Eg Highlander - There should have been only one...!

I'm sure we've previously done 'sequels which never should have been made', hence I started this one...

I wanted to see a sequel to when worlds collide.
