Movies THAT should be remade or deserve a sequel
 

Go.

Ignore weird emphasis. Still on a royals win high.

Goonies 2 with the kids all as adults mentoring their offspring seems like a sure fire winner.

Children of Men left me hanging and wanting more~

The Golden Compass sequel...i wanted to see more of that

I never got my Willow trilogy.

**** yeah WILLOW!

I'd like to see the sequels to the Matrix redone from the ground up (including a total rewrite of the story).

Not really a movie, but I'd like to see more Dr. Horrible.

Dune and Starship Troopers need reboots that are closer to the source material.

Bummer they aren't planning on continuing the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series.

Really, the 2nd and so far 3rd book are as good or better. And Mara is perfect for that role.

I'm going to get buried for this but Kung Pow:Enter The Fist. They were supposed to make Tongue of Fury but never did. ROFL

Last I had heard, Fincher was back into the sequel, The Girl That Played With Fire. He's out of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea due to the box office disappointments of both John Carter and The Lone Ranger. Disney no longer wanted to put up $200 million plus for a film destined to not find an audience.

The biggest issue now is scheduling. With Bond 24 set to shoot soon, Daniel Craig's availability is now in question. It all depends on when a suitable script is accepted.

I would think 20,000 leagues would have a better chance of drawing the audience it needs. Why is they think they have to throw $200 million at all these movies anyway?

Owl Creek Bridge.

Bicycle Thieves.

I'm still waiting for History of the World Part II and Buckaroo Banzai Against the World Crime League.

Mortal Kombat, definitely.

I always thought they were going to make a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen sequel, but not so much.

ROFL I used to seriously convince people that there was a movie called Goonies 2: The New Batch.

You stole my thunder. Been waiting for these two for a loooooooong time.

Gump and Co.

I'd go to see Godfather 4,I mean it'd have to be better than 3,right?

They should do Godfather as an HBO series. Really would just be The Sopranos from the NY side of things.

Since Soffia Coppola's character is mercifully dead, yes, it would have to be better. :grr:

"It" needs a sequel.

Dune needs to be an HBO miniseries, produced by the GOT people. I think they'd get it right. So far it's been completely butchered.

The incredibles- I've watched it at least 1000x with my kids.
If they will do that shitfest toy story 3 why not Incredibles

If you haven't seen it, do it
A wee O'wee

What's your beef with Toy Story 3, sir?

Fatal Attraction (Remake)
Super Troopers (Sequal)
Beerfest (Sequal)
Any Given Sunday (Either a remake or sequal)

We need another series of Star Trek TOS movies.

Use CGI to replace the original actors (Shatner, Nimoy, Kelley, Doohan, etc). It looks like they have the technology to make it pretty damn realistic, and it would be awesome to see Star Trek with the old cast reassembled (well, sort of).

I guess they could still use Shatner to voice his part, but the rest would have to be done digitally. I don't know if that is possible or not.

I know this is nothing but a pipe dream, but I simply can't stand these reboot reeruns they're using now to make the new ST.

Toy Story 3 is awesome.

They should remake the Running Man in a darker style without the cornball schtick.

Oh, also, The Sword and the Sorcerer. The closing credits promised a sequel which we never got.

I think they'll be probably there in a couple of years, but they're not quite there yet. The CGI young Jeff Bridges in Tron Legacy was..... okay, and you could tell it was supposed to be young Jeff Bridges, but it was obviously not a real person.

Never saw that...maybe I'll give it a peek just to see what the CGI looks like.

Ass Worship 2 needs a remake.

REP on this one.
that movie is HILARIOUS!
I have the DVD.
I did know about the sequel...but it never happened.

great movie dammit!

At any rate, I'd rather see a shaky quality Shatner or Nimoy, than watch something like Uhura and Spock making out, a little alien/teddy bear running around engineering, or a 20 year old commanding the flagship of Star Fleet...

I'd love to see a Lost Boys reboot.
yes I know there are two sequels (I sadly know way too much about both) but they suck.
did you know the original idea for a sequel was gonna be the Lost Girls?
did you know that David didn't actually die at the end of the Lost Boys? the antlers missed his heart. he showed up a comic series that was supposed to be a bridge between the Lost Boys and The Tribe.

I want a remake.
I love the original.

Jumper and Push

I'd watch a Firefly movie.

Captain America is in desperate need of a reboot, but it's already in the midst of one. That shit from the 90s was dire.

As much as Ray Harryhausen is revered, I can't stand that stop motion shit. I recognize the level of work and that it was a labor of love, but man, what I see on the screen I put on par with Ed Wood. or Gumby if I'm being generous.

Napolean Dynamite
Nacho Libre
two of my favorite comedies and both could continue on with the story and be hilarious.

I'd be alright with that, but in the last Firefly movie.

They should do another Rocky movie where Rocky is again coaxed out of retirement, but this time it is to train Apollo Creed's son.

Never mind, that's too stupid to be seriously considered.

Although if they had Creed's son fight Ivan Drago's son, I think they might have something there...

Napoleon Dynamite and Freddy Got Fingered!!!!

This.

Starship Troopers...the book....was ****ing awesome.

Tropic Thunder. Love that movie

Yeah, I've said that before. Just stick to the book. That movie would rock.

I'd watch that.

Spawn.

I've never understood the problem with three, outside of Sofia (who really didn't bother me). It wasn't as good as its predessors but IMO, it's a very good movie. I thought the casting of Garcia and Mantegna were excellent.

On a side note, every time I run into Mantegna (anywhere from the Rainbow to Costco and several other places) I always greet him with "Zaza", to which he smiles.

:D

Aliens
Matrix
Lord of Rings
Star Wars
Harry Potter

I enjoy the old Sinbad movies, as well as Jason and the Argonauts, far more than the recent shitfests starring Sam Worthington as Perseus.

Actually, Sinbad would be cool to reboot, although the audience might not exist to justify a $100 million dollar film.

Leonard Part 7

[end thread]

I would like to see HBO or Showtime tackle these as a full show, similar to HBO's Game of Thrones.

You mean, like Houseguest 2?

It would end up as a combo of Pirates and Prince of Persia.

Seriously. This shit needs to be remade. So much potential.

I'd like to see a good movie based on a video game or on Dungeons & Dragons. I didn't see Prince of Persia, so maybe it's already been done, but as an earlier generation guy, I would have liked to see them do a better job with the D&D movie they made in 2000 or the DOOM movie they did in 2005.

They're starting on a Warcraft movie already. $100m Budget, live Action with a ton of CG. It's going to be produced by Legendary/Warner Bros and Duncan Jones will be directing it.

Im curious to see how it turns out. Warcraft's lore is very, very deep. You'd need a LoTR type trilogy to tell the whole story. This movie will be either very bad or very good. No in between imo.

Given it's popularity, that makes sense. I hope it turns out well.

Breakin 3

loL Wut??

I think its sort of got the same problem Lone Ranger has. Its an old stale property, that isnt relevant to todays younger audiences. But then again, they did use Jules Verne as a basis for those Mysterious Island movies. But those had lower budgets im sure....

I'd love to see an R rated God of War movie.

The Final Countdown

I agree. Their problem was that they hired a director that was a fan of D&D, but just not very good. They also put it in a setting that had no fan base, and made it more or less full of silly kid's stuff - pre-Lord of the Rings, that's pretty much how all of medieval fantasy was treated.

But yeah, it could have been tons better. Give it to someone like Guillermo del Toro.

Also, I nominate Daredevil, and it should be made like this:

I talked to David Jaffe about this once -- so much potential.

There is already a D&D movie in development - in fact there was (and still may be) a court case about who has the rights.

The Bruce Willis understated superhero movie, Unbreakable, needs a sequel.

They had an animated Sinbad movie with Brad Pitt and Catherine Zeta Jones' voice talents.

That was a great flick.

The Great Escape.

If we are tossing out video games for movies let me toss my hat in the Half Life movie ring.

THIS IS THE BEST FANTASTIC FOUR MOVIE EVER MADE
and it needs more sequels than Bond

remake ?
do all of Nolan's batman movies, with Kevin Conroy voicing Batman

Bale's bat voice sucked ass

They made a Mortal Kombat 2 and it would have been better if they didn't.

Logan's Run
Westworld
