May graceful introductions be damned.
What movies do you fear somebody will make a sequel to? This is a bit like many of the "worst sequels ever" questions occasionally asked here, only this one is purely hypothetical.
Personally I fear a "Usual Suspects II" , "Godfather IV", "Independence Day II", and "Alien V". Any other ideas?
In general I don't care for sequels, but some movies should never have sequel like ones where the main character dies and classics. More importantly a lot of movies should never be "remade" like "Sebrina," "Psycho," "Solaris"
"The House That Vanished 2". "Hobgoblins 2". "Sidehackers 2".
And as long as Alien V isn't directed by a Frenchman we should be fine.

How about a sequel to DUDE, WHERE'S MY CAR?
Well, guess what. Their is a sequel in production right at this time. The title: SERIOUSLY DUDE, WHERE'S MY CAR?
And I never thought a sequel was going to be made, but wow. If so, then Armangeddon is surely on it's way! And talk about an unoriginal title!
dirty dancing 2, and i heard they are seriously considering it
Star Trek: Nemesis 2 From what my wife has told me about the first one, they really can't manage to make a worse film. And yet ...
You are just gonna love this one, Susan, there is actually a Dirty Dancing sequel, a TV series that continued the whole horror. I know because my sister used to make me watch it. Personally, I think this is scarier that if it was a second movie. You can avoid movies, but just imagine you change the TV channel and you find it...
About the topic, any sequel of a Michael Bay film would be a number one in my list. I've heard "Bad Boys II" is under production, so... Another "Beverly hills cop" would came second, and the upcoming "Charlie's angels 2" would be the third.
Methinks I've started a jihad.
A new Star Wars movie... oh wait.
Another "Friday" film- the first was good but after that they just sucked
Police Academy- enough said
Satans Storybook 2-I finally have the muscle convulsions under control but the meds are not helping the hallucinations
Men in Black 3
Generally, I like sequels, especially to B films like the Terror Within and Watchers. But when it comes outside the horror and action area it gets scary.
another sleepless in Seattle is uncalled for
Breeders 2 (the original caused pain!) I am aware there is a remake and being a glutton for both pain and completism, I am looking for it.
Every romance should never get a sequel. Period.
My Demon Lover 2, no need for another please GOD!
A Blues Brothers 2. John Belushi is dead, they can't make a sequel, it just wouldn't be right. What would they do, add, say, John Goodman (need the fat guy) and throw in an annoying kid? They couldn't do that. No. Dan Akroyd couldn't be that hard up for cash.
>>You are just gonna love this one, Susan, there is actually a Dirty Dancing sequel, a TV series that continued the whole horror. I know because my sister used to make me watch it. <,
She tied you down and held your eyelids open with toothpicks? A likely story ;-)
Fess up!
Btw, anybody in the series who later became famous?
And fear the sequel, I keep hearing it's in production with no cast yet tho I haven't reserached it in awhile except it was supposed to revolve around a miami club or something. Considering the two lead actor's careers are at a dead end right now they might as well star in it too
I just searched the IMDB website for the DD TV series, but none of the names ring any bells to me. Check it out by yourself:

How about "seven 2" or "the Shining 2:Johnny's Back" (heck I shouldn't give them ideas)
You could eventually get to:
The Second Return of the Son of the Spawn of the Mummy - 2 IV.
Which would make it the 10th sequel.
Talking of Independance Day 2 - I heard the tag line is:
The aliens are back, and now they've got Norton Anti-Virus
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
rated PG-13, no Brad Fiedel crunch and thump music, and all the action seems to take place in daylight...WTF!?!?!?!!
I'll wait to get it from Netflix, thank you very much.

See, studio executives have no concept of quality. To them, all movies are equal, so if they include some of the same elements, a sequel will be every bit as popular as the first one. In their eyes, ALL the Halloween movies are completely equal, ALL the Friday the 13th movies rae equal, ALL the Alien movies are equal. When a movie bombs, they figure it must be because the public is tired of those type movies or that particular franchise. In the quality-less universe where they live, the only difference between the Terminator movies and the Nemesis movies is how much they cost. They both feature machines disguised as humans, so people will like them equally. The same with terminator 3, it has Arnold as a machine disguised as human, so nothing else really matters.
The Spice Girls 2 - The Rehab Years.
I'd hate to see a fourth Austin Powers. I'd like to see another mindless funfest sequel to Commando with Arnie in it, and maybe even an "American Ninja 6", but it has to have Michael Dudikoff, not the other guy.
I mean, com'on...die hard 4?
I also dread to think what'll happen to Arnie's career if T3 bombs or stinks.
Thelma & Louise 2 -- the ghosts of our heroines help some poor schlubbette break out of her humdrum life.
A Christmas Story 2 -- Ralphie sues Red Ryder for his injuries
Greasers Palace 2 -- Robert Downey Sr. explains just what the hell was going on and talkes all the fun out of it
Creeping Terror 2 -- The monster spawns a bunch of little throw rugs
Titanic 2 -- Surprise! It was all a dream, the ship didn't sink and everyone lives happily ever after
Lord of the Rings 2 -- A look at the marital woes of Aragorn & Arwen
I think they should make a bunch of sequels to "XXX." They could use Roman numerals, like they do for the Superbowl. The sequesl would have titles like:
XXX II
XXX III
XXX IV
XXX V
That would really mess people up.
"Hey, after we watch Superbowl XXXVIII let's watch XXX III."
What do they do when they make the tenth xXx movie? "Hey, did you see triple x x?"
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE, OH PLEASE, OH PLEASE, DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT MAKE MORTAL COMBAT 3 PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'LL DO ANYTHING, JUST DON'T MAKE ANOTHER ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh,wait...

Meteor Man can kick Superman's ass
I think the Men in Black sequel, MIIB was an insult to the first movie. If you remember in the end of the first, Tommy Lee's character has his memory erased because he doesn't want to go on, and thus the strain the work puts on the agents, the cycle of new agents is born. Then comes the second one, where his character is "rememorized" and he comes back to work as an agent. NO!! NO no no no no no no N-O!! They ended the first one that way for a reason: so the second one couldn't possibly be made. Errrr.
I'd hate to see Kangaroo Jack 2 made, and this time it's the kangaroo's son in Joey Jack: Back for the Attack. Ugggghhh.
Scottie
I think "ET the Return" would cause cause my head to explode. Species 3 would be a winner, not. What Lies Beneath: The Explanation, can't wait. Scooby-doo 2: Scooby Does You the Audience. Showgirls 2 staring Demi Moore oh... s**t!
-
-Devil's Rain II, After the Storm (lol)
-anything that has to do with Porky's
-Contact II, The Explination (since it didn't follow the book)
-any continuation of the NEW Planet of the Apes.
and IF they made a sequal to Independance Day, I wouldn't be surprised if they named it Labor Day, The Rebuiling
God I'm making myself sick!!!!!
Later,
ID4 2
BAD BOYS 2
Hey I liked the first Bad Boys aaaaaannnnnnnnddddddd Bad Boys will be coming very soon :)

Meteor Man Can kick Superman's ass.
Well get this kids. They're making a PREquel to" Dumb and Dumber"!! It's called "When Harry met Lloyd: Dumb and Dumberer". I'm not kidding. AND, it doesn't have any of the original cast or the original directors! Should be quality entertainment. And I swear I've heard of a Dirty Dancing sequel somewhere.
The sequel I fear is the one that has the tagline;...
"THIS TIME... IT'S PERSONAL"
Wasn't the first one personal enough or something?
Total Recall! That film should never have a sequel because it ends with an unresolved fade-out: although there are a lot of hints that the whole adventure is real after all, there were more than a few hints that maybe it isn't and Arnold Schwartzenegger's character really was getting the ego trip vacation he paid for. If they ever made a sequel for that, it would totally ruin any redeeming qualities the first film had.
Titanic 2 -- wasn't that called "Raising the Titanic" ... *shudder*
"Raise the Titanic" came out in '85, before they had even FOUND Titanic itself. Of course, I had to watch it during my "Titanic" phase (1996-1998), to my now great disfortune.
BANG! BANG! Kill the old thread I must!
