I don’t acknowledge a JAWS II.

I have to acknowledge _Jaws 3-D_, because that was the first time I made it to second base.

I have to acknowledge _Jaws 3-D_ because it was one of the most hilarious spoof films ever to be put on celluloid. Seriously it’s a toss up between _Jaws 3-D_ and _Airplane_ for me, pity they never made a real _Jaws_ sequel.

Also unmade music has been largely ignored in this thread, personally I find it a pity that Roger Waters immediately left Pink Floyd after _The Wall_, but I suppose it’s a good thing in a way. After all he could have made a terrible, pretentious, and discontinuous album with messages so heavy handed it felt like he was right there smashing you in the head with a sign saying “War is bad m’kay.” Yep it’s probably a good thing that never happened.

It’s curious to me why they named the first Star Trek movie Star Trek II.

I know it was hard to take when Newt and Hicks both died heroically saving Earth from the acre’s large facehugger egg nursery but that doesn’t mean you should pretend the movie didn’t happen.
