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

Re: Never made sequels....
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.....

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.

Re: Never made sequels....
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?"..

Re: Never made sequels....
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.

Re: Never made sequels....
Would you believe Gibson is considering a sequel based on his resurrection...?

I'd consider it more as "what films should *never* have had a sequel"!!
Eg Highlander - There should have been only one...!

You mean "The Slow-motion Picture"...?!
Unfortunately it also meant we got III, IV, V and VI and Generations and Insurrection...

I remind people of the nonsense that was Raise the Titanic! (Apologies to anyone who was trying to repress that!)

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