Ha, I have a good one...Grease 2. Que horrible!

Oh, and its spelt s-e-q-u-e-l.

Ooooh, and what about Dumb and Dumberer, I mean if you can't get the same people to do it, don't make the movie.

Oh, what about Escape from L.A., I mean...Snake had to play basketball to stay alive for Christ's sake!

Grease 2 is awesome! Well, it was when I was 12.

Also, if you have something to add to a post you just made, please use the edit button (the little pencil writing on the folder in the bottom right corner of your post) to edit your post instead of adding a new one. It's not a big deal, but it just reduces clutter and makes everything easier to read and follow. Thanks!

I think disney is making a good decision by making a sequal to Pirates of the Caribbean. I like the movie but I think it could be even better and I think POTC2 will be better than the original. Shrek2 was a great sequal. Dodgeball, although funny probably doesn't need a sequal. American Pie movies hurt a litte bit by the third.

Exorcist 2 is possibly the worst sequel, although I think Exorcist 3 was great. I don't think they need to be making a fourth though! Empire Strikes Back is a fantastic sequel, but episodes 1-3 did not need to be made. Conan the Destroyer was an awful sequel, and hopefully they won't do another until Arnie is ready to play old King Conan. I'd prefer new blood for a new Conan, but if Milius and Arnie get together for a closing chapter it would finish it nicely, and then someone else could pick up the reigns. Aliens and Terminator 2 were great sequels by John Cameron. Alien 3 was disappointing but I quite liked Alien Resurrection. The Paradise Lost documentary was amazingly chilling, but the follow-up was lacking, I think number 3 which is set for 2006 holds promise as Damian is scheduled for execution soon and that should make it as haunting as the first. By the way if you have not seen the first movie or read the book, I highly recommend them. I thought X2 was better than X-Men, and I am sure that Spider Man 2 will be even better as well. I think a POTC sequel will be great fun, hopefully Keith Richards signs on to play Johnny Depp's father! And you know, wouldn't it be great to see a sequel to the Passion of the Christ?! Just Kidding!

Best movie to have the best sequel = The Godfather.

Best movie to have a bad sequel = The Godfather 2.

Obviously, we still need a "Ghandi II"
Can't remember who pulled that joke originally (was it one of the Abrahams/Zucker movies?)

I'm still laughing though

Hahahaha! Yeah, "The Passion 2: Jesus Takes Manhattan"

All the Grease movies were just terrible!!

Car flying away..........

Please help me on this one

Dumb and dumber had a sequel...and it blew sooooooooo much I nearly creamed in my pants!

no..not really..I'm exaggerating.

I dont think Terminator 2 should have had asequel, the 3rd one is just pointless, even though it was good fun.

The Hulk should definitely have a sequel! It would definitely correct the mistakes made in the first one!

In truth, I don't believe good films, let alone great ones, merit ANY sequels unless they're based on something literary. For example, none of the LOTR films or novels were sequels; they were all just part of something really huge that had to be broken up.

I will admit that I enjoyed "Godfather II", "The Empire Strikes Back", "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom", "Aliens", "Terminator 2", and especially "French Connection II." This last film may violate several theories, since the first film was based on actual characters and not one thing that happened in the sequel actually happened in real life. Oh well, since I agree with Steve Martin in "Grand Canyon", that all of life's riddles are solved in the movies, I guess that makes "F.C. II" even better. I will say that Gene Hackman's acting in numero dos was probably 10 times better than his Academy-Award-winning job in numero uno.

I don't know ... I think a totally film-based duology (?) or trilogy or even tetralogy is okay as long as the story is planned out in advance, and not tacked on as an afterthought. Unfortunatley, that rarely happens in the film world as sequels are only granted if enough money is made.

Final Destination 3: We promise this time, it's final!
Urban Legends 3: Frog Warts
The Lion King 1 9/16: Disney Still Sucks
Aliens vs. Mary Poppins
Freddy vs. Simon Birch
Harold and Maude go to White Castle
Austin Powers in Austinpussy
The Three Amigos Start Being Funny Again
Field of Nightmares (Freddy vs. Kevin Costner)
Edward Heroin Hands
BIGger

I think every movie should be part of a trilogy. Here would be some of the best:

Saving private ryan 2: this is the last time we’re saving your ass
Saving private ryan 3: screw the bast, he can save himself

Gladiator: regladiator: Oh wait, they’re already making this one.
Gladiator 3: rule of Caesar “let’s have the gladiators wrestle naked” Lusious

Bill and teds queer quest (could be back from when queer meant really strange, but probably not)

Wizard of Oz III: Attack of the Oz: I told you not to look behind the curtain you little whore.

They could even make a sequel to Star Wars and call it:

Return of the attacking revenging empiracle sith-cloning jedi-troopers

And let’s not forget:

E.T. 2: Extra Extra Terrestrial
G.E.T.: As in, Get that overgrown ball sack off out planet!

And of course the horror sequels to the cult classic Andy Garcia, Christopher Walken flick:

Things to do in Denver when you’re undead
People to eat in Vegas when you’ve just come from Denver

I know I’m forgetting some. Help me out here.

This was a fun topic, so I am going to revisit it, even though there are obviously some people here that have some issues. By that I mean gay issues. By that I mean gay sex with donkey issues. By that I mean Jackietheblade putting on a donkey show in Tijuana issues. ANYHOO! Here are some more sequels.

The Brunch Club
Blazing Assless Leather Chaps
The Eleven Commandments
The Great Escape That Actually Works

Gee. I thought this used to be a legit thread.
Oh well, it was dead for two weeks, so maybe this is where it had to go. Try to keep it funny without getting TOO tasteless. I just don't want to see any personal harangues from our jakal/Jackie tag team. [Grandpa walks back into his room, scratches his butt and channel-surfs.]

Definitely Hamlet....nah...I'm just messing with you!

I always thought that Rounders could be made into a sequel, what with all the poker hoppla going on, meaning the fat bastard that won 5,000,000 at the 2004 WSOP, D-Zam.

GF's one and two actually were based on the same novel, broken up into two movies. That's why they're so cohesive, and why GF3 is so disjointed.
