What movies promised us a sequel, then failed to deliver?

[tdn]

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension

At the end of the movie we were promised a sequel, Buckaroo Bonzai Against the World Crime League. Nearly 30 years later, we're still waiting. Or not.

Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins

And ends.

What else?

[Steve MB]

Are you distinguishing between "promised us a sequel" and "threatened us with a sequel"? :p

[PSXer]

Super Mario Bros. totally set up for a sequel at the end. Still waiting

[tdn]

Are you distinguishing between "promised us a sequel" and "threatened us with a sequel"? :p

Promised us a sequel, then failed to deliver, fortunately.

[garygnu]

Spaceballs. Still disappointed in that. It could be Rick Moranis's return to acting. :(

[Wheelz]

Speaking of Mel Brooks, what about History of the World: Part I ?

Of course, that was part of the joke.

[Serenata67]

Green Lantern.

Oh, wait. It was the first movie that failed deliver.

I don't know if Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back necessarily intended a sequel, but they left it ambiguous. Either way, no J&SB sequel yet!

[Sampiro]

Not that I wanted one because I hated the movie, but Golden Compass.

[Dewey Finn]

Similarly, the Lemony Snicket movie. There have been several attempts at starting film series based on children's/young adult fantasy fiction book series, in an attempt at capturing the magic (and profitability) of the Harry Potter series.

[tdn]

Lord of the Rings

[Little Nemo]

Push was supposed to be the first movie of a trilogy. The sequels were never made. (But they're now talking about continuing the story as a television series.)

Hammer intended Captain Kronos to be a franchise but after the first movie with the character did poorly they never made any further ones.

[LurkMeister]

Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze, with Ron Ely in the title role, included an announcement of a sequel, Doc Savage: Arch Enemy of Evil. Whether this qualifies as a promise or a threat, I refuse to comment.

[Hentor the Barbarian]

The 1980 film Flash Gordon ended with a "The End?" and featured Ming laughing while a hand was shown picking up his ring of power.

Also, there were rumors of sequels to the original Star Wars trilogy, but none were ever made.

[joebuck20]

The 1998 version of Godzilla with Matthew Broderick was so setting up a sequel with its last shot.

Not that I'm complaining over them not making another.

[Mahaloth]

The Chronicles of Riddick

Yes, I know they talk about it, but I'm not sure if it will ever happen.

[Noelq]

Doctor Detroit: The Wrath of Mom.

I'd love to have seen that.

[PSXer]

Also still waiting on Conan The King

[bup]

Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, but that was probably a joke.

The Incredibles.

The Fantastic Four.

[Sarabellum1976]

There was supposed to be a sequel to Dances With Wolves, although it wasn't implied in the movie.

The novel ("The Holy Road") was published, and supposedly the author wrote a screenplay, but when Kevin Costner wouldn't take the John Dunbar role again, financing never happened and the project was shelved. It's a shame, too... it would have been good.

[stpauler]

I swear I saw an Airplane III promise at the end of the VHS tape we had.

[Idle Thoughts]

The long "advertisement" (for Pepsi and McDonalds) Mac and Me had the alien blowing a bubble at the end promising "We'll be back!".
Alas, they haven't been yet.

[StusBlues]

I'll be very surprised if we see Atlas Shrugged: Part II--at least from the outfit that gave us Part I.

[Shmendrik]

The Incredibles

Passion of the Christ

[Little Nemo]

The Fantastic Four.Huh? Are you talking about a sequel to the 1994 movie? Because they made a sequel to the 2005 movie. Or is this one of those "that movie doesn't exists" posts?

[John DiFool]

The Chronicles of Riddick

Yes, I know they talk about it, but I'm not sure if it will ever happen.

Au contraire (http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?c_id=mlb&content_id=17782089&query=game_pk%3D288608).

[Qadgop the Mercotan]

Lord of the Rings
Bakshi failed to deliver, didn't he?

[Shark Sandwich]

Speaking of Mel Brooks, what about History of the World: Part I ?

Of course, that was part of the joke.

Whaaa? I was really looking forward to Hitler on Ice.

[Ponch8]

I swear I saw an Airplane III promise at the end of the VHS tape we had.

It did say something like "Coming soon: Airplane III." Then William Shatner says, "that's just what they're expecting us to do" or some such.

[Happy Lendervedder]

Forrest Gump (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forrest_Gump). There were always rumors of a sequel being made based on the novel Gump and Co. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gump_and_Co.) But it never materialized.

[cmkeller]

Leonard Part 6. Part 7 would have been Bill Cosby's greatest film appearance ever.

Also, Spike Lee should have followed up Malcolm X with Malcolm XI.

[tdn]

Bakshi failed to deliver, didn't he?

Yep. That was a seriously disappointing movie. PJ's version left us hanging, but at least we knew that two sequels were pretty much guaranteed.

[kenobi 65]

It did say something like "Coming soon: Airplane III." Then William Shatner says, "that's just what they're expecting us to do" or some such.

Parenthetically: Zucker, Abrahams, and Zucker (the creative team behing the original movie) had nothing to do with Airplane II. I saw a sneak preview of "Top Secret!", the movie which they made after "Airplane!", several months before it was released; the three of them did a Q&A session after the screening. The story which they related was as follows:

When "Airplane!" was a huge hit, Paramount came to them and said, "that was great, do a sequel!" They said, "but, wait, we've *done* all the good disaster-movie jokes; we want to spoof something else." Paramount replied, "we're certain that a sequel will do well at the box office; we don't know that a different spoof movie will." The three of them said, "Well, *we* aren't doing a sequel." Paramount's reply: "That's all right, we don't need you, as we own the rights, we'll just do it anyway."

[tdn]

Paramount's reply: "That's all right, we don't need you, as we own the rights, we'll just do it anyway."

And the rest was bad, unfunny history.

I sort of remember reading a quote from one of them in which he compared watching it to watching someone rape his daughter.

It wasn't THAT bad.

[Surly Chick]

Eragon. C'mon, the first movie wasn't that bad...

[bup]

Huh? Are you talking about a sequel to the 1994 movie? Because they made a sequel to the 2005 movie. Or is this one of those "that movie doesn't exists" posts?No, I completely forgot about the Silver Surfer sequel. Or, rather, I never saw it, and forgot that it had the Fantastic Four in it.

[Randy Seltzer]

I didn't see it, but I'm told that Battlefield Earth (the movie) only covered the first half of the novel, and John Travolta was going to use the revenue from the first one to fund Part II. We all know how that ended up.

The Incredibles.

The IncrediblesGuys, I'm pretty sure that the ending scene of The Incredibles isn't intended as a promise of a sequel, but rather as a statement that the adventures will continue offscreen. A kind of a "...and they lived happily ever after" for the comic book genre. I seem to remember that soon after release, Brad Bird went on the record adamantly insisting that the story was over, and there would not be a sequel. (However, wikipedia -- quoting this article (http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=21218) -- says otherwise. So who knows?)

[Agent Foxtrot]

I'm still waiting for a sequel to The Matrix.

[Bryan Ekers]

I'm waiting for Loaded Weapon 2 and Potfest.



And I'm also long-tired of those "that movie never existed" posts. Yes, there was a Highlander 2 and a Star Trek V and Matrix sequels. The joke's not funny any more, give it a rest.

[Simplicio]

Also, there were rumors of sequels to the original Star Wars trilogy, but none were ever made.

Realize your making a joking reference to the prequels (and seriously, can we retire the "hated movie was never made" joke yet?), but didn't Lucas say he'd written three sequels as well as three prequels to Star Wars at some point.

[Bosstone]

Realize your making a joking reference to the prequels (and seriously, can we retire the "hated movie was never made" joke yet?), but didn't Lucas say he'd written three sequels as well as three prequels to Star Wars at some point.I think Hentor was actually referring to what you're talking about, and not intended as prequel snark.

My contribution is Roland Emmerich's Godzilla. The end scene was pure sequel tease, but thank god they didn't follow up on it.

[CalMeacham]

Boy, nobody mentions The Sword and the Sorceror and its promise of Tales of an Ancient Empire?


It's been four years since the said they were actually making the sequel, and it still hasn't shown up.


Note added: Apparently it has shown up, somewhere. I never saw it, or any advertising for it. And it didn't star the people it was supposed to. Apparently this new film promises yet another sequel, Red Moon. I won't hold my beath.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tales_of_an_Ancient_Empire







Just as an aside, the sequel annonced at the end of the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me was For Your Eyes Only. Only it wasn't -- Star Wars happened, so they made Moonraker instead, blatantly ripping off the ending of Star Wars. Probably just as well they didn't makeFYEO right away. It was one of the better Bonds, and easily Moore's best, and it might not have beemn if they hadn't gotten the silliness out of their system with that awful Moonraker first.

[a35362]

Little Shop of Horrors. Little baby Audrey in the front lawn.

[Tim R. Mortiss]

Baby Audrey on the lawn, Ming's hand (or someone's) picking up the ring.... I don't think you can count those as a promise (or even a vague suggestion) that a sequel is in the works. It's just a little trope that horror movies love to toss out all the time. Sort of a "and it never ends!" kind of comment.

My favorite twist on that was in the totally forgettable Lou Diamond Phillips movie "Bats." Just when they think they have killed all the evil bats, and are driving off into the sunset, you see one more bat emerging from a hole in the ground. But then, the heroes in their Jeep run over it, splatting it to a pancake!

[Krokodil]

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Never Say Never Again

[Don Draper]

Not a feature film, but a TV movie or mini-series: Babycakes the fourth book in Armistead Maupin's "Tales of the City" series of books. The first book was made into an excellent mini-series, the second and third books were made into Ok mini-series. Maupin tried hard to get a fourth mini-series or at least a TV movie made of the fourth book, but never got it off the ground.

It's quite a shame too. The fourth book, with the introduction of AIDS into the storyline, was the point at which the previously whimsical series took on some gravitas. The third book revolved around a fluffy, frankly ridiculous story about a drifter who may or may not have been Jim Jones. "Babycakes" really deserved a film treatment though, as it showed well-established characters undergo some truly dramatic life changes.

[Malthus]

Realize your making a joking reference to the prequels (and seriously, can we retire the "hated movie was never made" joke yet?), but didn't Lucas say he'd written three sequels as well as three prequels to Star Wars at some point.

You remember him saying that. I remember him saying that. Every freaking person in the US over the age of 30 remembers him saying that...except George Lucas. He denies he ever planned it as a 9 parter, much less wrote them. :dubious:

[Sampiro]

Godfather IV is rumored every few years. Supposedly there's a treatment Puzo did around the time of GF3 that's set between the "Young Vito" scenes of Godfather II and the beginning of Godfather I (roughly 1930-1940). Coppola himself said he'd like to contrast the Family under Vito with a modern day plotline of present don Vincent who is over a more "GoodFellas" family of street crime and no longer any pretense of anything noble.

[Little Nemo]

You remember him saying that. I remember him saying that. Every freaking person in the US over the age of 30 remembers him saying that...except George Lucas. He denies he ever planned it as a 9 parter, much less wrote them. :dubious:He never said it in the Director's Cut Version of reality.

Bakshi version.

[Bryan Ekers]

Probably just as well they didn't makeFYEO right away. It was one of the better Bonds, and easily Moore's best, and it might not have beemn if they hadn't gotten the silliness out of their system with that awful Moonraker first.

Personally, of Moore's turns as Bond, my favourite is Octopussy, but I'm a sucker for Maud Adams and cold-war fiction.

And the silliness came back in antibiotic-resistant-epidemic force for Moore's A View to a Kill.

[Skald the Rhymer]

You remember him saying that. I remember him saying that. Every freaking person in the US over the age of 30 remembers him saying that...except George Lucas. He denies he ever planned it as a 9 parter, much less wrote them. :dubious:

True though that is, look at it this way. Do you want Lucus writing three more Star Wars movies?

[Skald the Rhymer]

Bakshi version.

Ah. I had forgotten that.

[Red Barchetta]

Baby's Day Out. After being returned to his crib at the end, he snatches a book from the shelf titled something like Baby Goes to China.

[YPOD]

Silvderado - at the end, the Kevin Costner character shouted "we'll be back."

[Quimby]

I am probably the only person who remembers this but there was a lame '80s comedy called Making the Grade which at the end promised its two main characters would come back. It even gave the title (which I don't remember) but I am sure it was never made.

[bouv]

Unbreakable was intended as the first movie in a trilogy. At the very least, M. Night wanted to do a second one, but a poor box office gross and too many people expecting a traditional superhero movie put the kibosh on that.

[RickJay]

"Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World" practically announced an impending sequel in its last minute or two. Despite that, and despite the fact it was a sensational movie, the producers have indicated that they haven't any intention of making another.

[handsomeharry]

Leonard Part 6. Part 7 would have been Bill Cosby's greatest film appearance ever.

Also, Spike Lee should have followed up Malcolm X with Malcolm XI.

Now this is funny!

[Súil Dubh]

Not a movie but... a third season of Twin Peaks.

In one of the last episodes there was a character left tied up in a cabin with a bag of tarantulas dangling over his head. They didn't get around to resolving his predicament in the last episode, and then the series ended, so I always wondered what happened to the poor guy.

Didn't Twin Peaks end with a life-or-death cliffhanger for almost every likeable character?

[Frazzled]

The actors in the dreadful movie version of "Lost in Space" signed on for 3 films of which only 1 (and that's 1 too many!) were made.

[heathen earthling]

Kung Pow! Enter The Fist ends with a fake sequel trailer.

[Súil Dubh]

Didn't Twin Peaks end with a life-or-death cliffhanger for almost every likeable character?

Yeah, it did. I probably should have addressed that in my post.

All of these cliffhangers happened in the last episode though, the guy threatened with a bag full of tarantulas (IIRC he was someone's villainous ex-boyfriend) was left hanging a few episodes before the end, so I was always especially curious about his fate.

[The Man In Black]

Not that I wanted one because I hated the movie, but Golden Compass.

I wish they did continue the series. But I also don;t even know why they started it. There is almost no way to do the entire series of books as 3 movies. Love the books (and the movie), but I think theybite off more than they can chew.

[The Man In Black]

Push was supposed to be the first movie of a trilogy. The sequels were never made. (But they're now talking about continuing the story as a television series.)

Hammer intended Captain Kronos to be a franchise but after the first movie with the character did poorly they never made any further ones.


I really wish they did more Captain Kronos movies. I loved the one they did make.

And Push was ok.

[The Man In Black]

Eragon. C'mon, the first movie wasn't that bad...

I thought it was pretty good. Hell, any movie with John Malkovich in it should get a sequel.

[Tim R. Mortiss]

Eragon. C'mon, the first movie wasn't that bad...

Eragon had two sequels. They were called The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Don't even get me started on the prequels.....

[TurboNuke]

Kung Pow! Enter The Fist ends with a fake sequel trailer.

I love that movie, I really wish they had made a sequel.

[Miller]

I sort of remember reading a quote from one of them in which he compared watching it to watching someone rape his daughter.

It wasn't THAT bad.
Depends on how well you like your daughter, I suppose.

[Postariti]

I am probably the only person who remembers this but there was a lame '80s comedy called Making the Grade which at the end promised its two main characters would come back. It even gave the title (which I don't remember) but I am sure it was never made.

No, there are three of us who remember that movie. You, myself, and my brother. We used to quote that movie to each other. "Don't you have a plane to catch...back to Mars?"

I looked it up, and the promised sequel was "Tourista." The thing that made the teaser strange was how definite it was. It wasn't a little hint, like in so many movies.

Reading this thread, promising a sequel with a specific title seems like a jinx.

[BigT]

You remember him saying that. I remember him saying that. Every freaking person in the US over the age of 30 remembers him saying that...except George Lucas. He denies he ever planned it as a 9 parter, much less wrote them. :dubious:

He has a history of doing that. I encountered a book about all the stuff he originally said, and how it changes over time. The first few chapters are available online. It's called, The Secret History of Star Wars (http://secrethistoryofstarwars.com/)

[Don Draper]

Yeah, it did. I probably should have addressed that in my post.

All of these cliffhangers happened in the last episode though, the guy threatened with a bag full of tarantulas (IIRC he was someone's villainous ex-boyfriend) was left hanging a few episodes before the end, so I was always especially curious about his fate.

That would be Leo Johnson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Johnson_(Twin_Peaks)). He was the town's resident sleaze-bag drug dealer & wife-beater; he was married to hapless heroine Shelly.

As the wikipedia article states, he was left tied up in the last ep, with the tarantulas held aloft above him by a string that he held clenched in his teeth. If the show had been picked up for a third season, the police would've raided Windom Earle's (Leo's captor) hideout, he would've called out for help, and thus the tarantulas would've fallen on him. No word if he would've lived or died. (And Twin Peaks was not above killing very important, popular characters.)

[Hypno-Toad]

He has a history of doing that. I encountered a book about all the stuff he originally said, and how it changes over time. The first few chapters are available online. It's called, The Secret History of Star Wars (http://secrethistoryofstarwars.com/)

It would be OK if George would just say, "Yeah, that was my intention. But I changed my mind." Instead, he tries to do the Mind Trick on us and acts like it never happened. THAT is what is just so freaking insulting.

[DigitalC]

The entertaining gangster movie Rockanrolla promised a sequel during the credits but the box office returns didn't justify the all star cast.

[Max Torque]

Is this one old enough to not spoilerbox? Ah well, better safe than sorry I guess. At the end of Freddy vs. Jason:Jason climbs out of the lake, still alive, with Freddy's severed head in his hand. There is a closeup of Freddy's head, which opens its eyes and winks at the audience. Pretty clearly a "this isn't over" gesture.

I disagree with Tim R. Mortiss about Ming's ring at the end of Flash Gordon; the on-screen text, which displays "The End", then shortly thereafter adds a "?", is a pretty clear statement that they intended to continue the story.

Not in the movie itself, but when I worked in a movie theater, we'd sometimes get these pamphlets with lists of upcoming films. One listed was Spaceballs 3: In Search Of 2, which would have rocked.

[Osiris the 1st]

Masters of the Universe with Dolph Lungren as He-Man and Frank Langella as Skeletor. After the credits Skeletor pop out of some water (apparently at the bottom of that hole he fell in) and says something like "I'll be back!" As a kid I was disappointed. In retrospect, however...

[Renifer]

There was supposed to be a third of The Ring (the American version) I can't say I'm disappointed that they did not follow up, as the second one was not as nearly as good as the first.

[The Other Waldo Pepper]

Unbreakable was intended as the first movie in a trilogy. At the very least, M. Night wanted to do a second one, but a poor box office gross and too many people expecting a traditional superhero movie put the kibosh on that.

It earned $248 million on a $75 million budget -- and movies that aren't as good a return on investment (HELLBOY, BLADE, MASK OF ZORRO, FANTASTIC FOUR, even BATMAN BEGINS) get sequels that turn profits all the time. (Heck, THOR and CAPTAIN AMERICA have both already gotten the green light for sequels, and neither film seems likely to gross triple its budget in theaters.)

[Folly]

Unbreakable was intended as the first movie in a trilogy. At the very least, M. Night wanted to do a second one, but a poor box office gross and too many people expecting a traditional superhero movie put the kibosh on that.

Yes, we had our birth of a superhero movie. I wanted my superhero movie follow up dang it!

[appleciders]

I didn't see it, but I'm told that Battlefield Earth (the movie) only covered the first half of the novel, and John Travolta was going to use the revenue from the first one to fund Part II. We all know how that ended up.


That sure seems plausible. The movie as filmed covers (loosely) the first half of the book. The second half of the book, with all the intergalactic finance law, is not covered in the movie. This is probably for the best, because if the first movie can't make fighting an alien occupation exciting, there's no way that they can make alien bankers trying to repossess the Earth fun.

[Tangent]

The end of Jumper set things up for a sequel that never happened.

[clarkstar]

the bond movie with halle berry was supposed to have spawned a "Jinx" spinoff movie

[typoink]

One listed was Spaceballs 3: In Search Of 2, which would have rocked.

Now, I'm the one nerd who really can't stand Spaceballs(way too much of it cribbed directly from the source material, just with silly names and farts), but that title is fantastic.

[Bartman]

The end of Jumper set things up for a sequel that never happened.

Actually Jumper seemed more like a pilot to a TV show to me than a either a stand alone movie or a lead in to a sequel. It resolved very few of the problems/issues/plot-lines it brought up. At the rate it was going it seemed to be setting up another 20 hours of story, not just another single 90 minute episode.

[BigT]

It would be OK if George would just say, "Yeah, that was my intention. But I changed my mind." Instead, he tries to do the Mind Trick on us and acts like it never happened. THAT is what is just so freaking insulting.

The problem is that it worked before: he successfully convinced nearly everyone that Darth Vader had always been Luke's father. If he hadn't gotten that positive reinforcement, he might actually have realized this.

Once I finish the book, I'd be glad to talk about it in another thread. It's pretty interesting (even if the writing is not the best).

[Sampiro]

Not exactly a sequel, but the creators of the TV series Arrested Development have been promising a big screen reunion/followup since the series was cancelled. Jason Bateman and Michael Cera and others associated with the show all say "Still in the works but no shooting date" whenever it's brought up.

HBO once said there might be movie sequels to the series Deadwood but star Ian McKellen and creator David Milch (who evidently cordially despise each other) have both said it's not going to happen.

Zombieland apparently hasn't started shooting a sequel. There was talk of making it a series of movies or even a TV show.

[Jim's Son]

If you got back to the Buster Crabbe "Flash Gordon" serials, at the end of the third one ("Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe") Ming the Merciless is apparently killed when a rocket ship crashes into the building he is in but one of the characters says there is an escape if Ming thinks of it in time. I assume that was meant for a new serial which never happened.

Besides "Master and Commander", Gregory Peck starred in similar type of British Napoleonic war naval hero Horatio Hornblower in a 1951 film. I don't know if a sequel was ever promised or if it was a dud financially but you would think they could have made more.

I wonder if there was ever any talk of the Martians trying another invasion after the 1953 George Pal "War of the worlds". Perhaps H G Wells's estate wouldn't allow it. Or for that matter, "Forbidden Planet", although I am always convinced that Gene Roddenberry ripped it off big time for "Star Trek'.

I am surprised that Disney and Warner Brothers can't get together for another Roger Rabbit film.
Any two minute appearance by that wascally wabbit Bugs Bunny is always appreciated.

I am waiting for Lindsay Lohan's career to sink low enough for her to make another Herbie the Love Bug film. But she may OD first.

[Tom Scud]

Last Action Hero (which, guilty secret, I kind of like) ended on a total sequel-promising cliffhanger.

[BMalion]

Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze, with Ron Ely in the title role, included an announcement of a sequel, Doc Savage: Arch Enemy of Evil. Whether this qualifies as a promise or a threat, I refuse to comment.


You know, despite all of it's many flaws, I liked Doc Savage, Man Of Bronze.

Took me forever to finally get my own copy on DVD.

George Pal's last movie!

[Súil Dubh]

That would be Leo Johnson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Johnson_(Twin_Peaks))...

Thanks for that. Reading the article really brought back memories.

Interesting that the wiki states that he was tied up in the last episode. I could have sworn it was an episode or two before that. Old age must be playing tricks with my memory.

[LurkMeister]

You know, despite all of it's many flaws, I liked Doc Savage, Man Of Bronze.

Took me forever to finally get my own copy on DVD.

George Pal's last movie!

I felt the same way. I finally found the DVD on the Warner Studios site, which is a great place to find older movies, including made for TV ones.

[FriarTed]

I'll be very surprised if we see Atlas Shrugged: Part II--at least from the outfit that gave us Part I.

It's been announced for Autumn of 2012.

[Dewey Finn]

I am surprised that Disney and Warner Brothers can't get together for another Roger Rabbit film.
Any two minute appearance by that wascally wabbit Bugs Bunny is always appreciated.
Supposedly a sequel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_Framed_Roger_Rabbit#Sequel) is under way.

[Max Torque]

Now, I'm the one nerd who really can't stand Spaceballs(way too much of it cribbed directly from the source material, just with silly names and farts), but that title is fantastic.

And it was supposed to come out around the same time as Naked Gun 2 1/2, which would have made it the Summer of Oddly-Numbered Sequels. hehe

[Bryan Ekers]

When are we gonna see the continuing adventures of Gary Seven and Roberta Lincoln? Huh? Huh?
