What movie deserves a prequel or sequel? (1 Viewer)

The Shining (prequel)

What is it that you would be interested seeing here?

 

[shuke]

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is clearly the best prequel of all time. 

That may be the only good one.  I don't think Godfather II really counts.

What is it that you would be interested seeing here?

Of all the stupid movies listed here, you picked THIS one to ask that?

Now to answer your question, I would be interested to see the history of the hotel and how the original family came to be murdered in room 237, plus the younger version of that one black guy who has "shining" or whatever.   Not to mention some of the parties that had to have happened given some of the things they saw near the end of the movie.  Seems to me this could be a pretty legit prequel.

Oh yea, that would be sweet.  For some reason I assumed you wanted backstory on the Torrance family.

Only if Jack Nicholson could some how reverse age himself like 45 years. 

But yeah, not a Torrence family prequel.  Would be lame as lame gets.

The Graduate

It's now 25 years later. Ben and Elaine are married and living in a big spooky house in Northern California, and Mrs. Robinson has to live with them because she's had a stroke or something. The couple also has a daughter in her early 20s just out of college.

A sequel to Hancock might be good.  Maybe find out more about the superheroes that disappeared.

Shining

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

Not sure some people understand what a prequel actually is.

 

[dhockster]

Sequel for Shawshank Redemption

Shawshank 2: Andy and Red's Revenge

 

[Limp Ditka]

Shawshank 2: Andy and Red's Revenge

Because they didn't already get their revenge?

 

[dhockster]

Because they didn't already get their revenge?

No, they come back to the US on a crime spree just to show that prison never broke their spirit.

 

[B Maverick]

Well a sequel would be impossible.

and yet: The Neverending Story II: The Next Chapter

 

[daddo39]

Sequels I would watch;

Kingsmen (heard this is happening)

Silverado

Who Framed Roger Rabbit

The Usual Suspects

After reading the Darth Bane series, I would like to see a Knights of the Old Republic set of movies which will probably come at some point. How the Sith came to be, Darth Plagus' story, how the sith were are to set up the clone army behind the Jedi's back with Master Sifo-Dyas and his demise.  

Just read the bane books.  Wow.   So good

Cameron Crowe had been talking for years about revisiting Say Anything, but since the nature of the relationship of the two main characters was based on his relationship with Nancy Wilson, which ended in a real bad divorce, I haven't heard much recent chatter about a sequel from Mr. Crowe.

An obscure one I would like to see is Beautiful Girls, but focusing only on the Natalie Portman and Tim Hutton characters. They had a deep emotional connection that was stymied by a vast age difference. Now, he would be in his late forties, and she in her mid-thirties. It could be interesting to see how it would play out in the present day.

And don't forget the cinematic masterpiece that was The NeverEnding Story III.

Jack Black's monobrow is truly frightening

Yet another blatant case of false advertising

A really underrated movie for me is Fallen, with Denzel Washington. I feel like there is a prequel built into it with Denzel teaming up with a former police officers daughter to figure out what is going during the movie, it would be neat to see what happened with her dad and the bad guy. I also think there could be a sequel with Denzel's nephew trying to avenge his dad and father years later.

I really want a Man From U.N.C.L.E. sequel.  I'm starting to think it's not going to happen.

I wish they would just stop with those, but I guess they can't.

Ghost World - would love to see the 30something hijinks of Enid and Rebecca - think it would work best as an HBO/Netflx/Showtime/Amazon/etc series 

Crumb is now 74, so

Beautiful Girls is a great movie and your sequel idea is really good. They could just redo the Rosie O'Donnell monologue, that is one of the greatest monologue's of all time, despite the fact that it came from Rosie O'Donnell.
