I agree that CaddyShack deserved better… I’d have to say that I wanna see a sequel to 7even That would kickass, and I agree with the idea of Brad Pitt going psycho- if I was married to a woman as gorgeous as her, and someone killed her, I would go psycho Pretty damn fast!!! maybe make another X-files movie… the first movie was pretty kick-ass… [hijack] but some movies get played out SOOOO long because they have no way to end it… [/hijack] ---

I loved that movie maily because I thought of that plot back when I use to day dream in high school. It wouldn’t be that hard to pull off. Just have Patrick recruit some new big name young stars to continue messing with the Ruskies. > \*\* Heheh, I want to Red Dawn, the true story, that shows the kids getting their ass handed to them. I saw this movie again the other day, and nearly choked to death on my popcorn at the ineptitude of Soviet troops and commanders. This movie is SOOO funny. ---

I had a girlfriend once who wanted to see a sequel to “Somewhere in Time,” the movie that had Christopher Reeves dying and ending up in Heaven with his long dead lost love, Jane Seymour. I said "what kind of sequel could you have? they’re both dead! ::imagining Seymour ironing clothes while Reeves watches TV…true love in the afterlife:: Later, I seem to recall she said the same thing about “Thelma and Louise.” :rolleyes: ---

Strange, no? And i’ve been thinking there should be one for awhile…months before this thread. SK himself said if he were to write a sequel to a book, he’d like to do the shining, or 'salem’s lot. 🙂 Just thought i’d share. ---

Danny DeVito thought they were dead when their chandelier came crashing down with the two of them in tow. But is DeVito a trained paramedic? Did DeVito check for their pulse?! No! Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner **weren’t** dead, they just had a heck of a lot of broken bones! And now, days later, when they regain consciousness in their full-body casts, they’re taking their war to the streets! Both of them have hired full mercenary armies with guns and tanks and rocket-launchers. The whole neighborhood will get demolished as the two of them vie for control of the house they lived in while they were married! There’ll be enough explosions to keep the Hollywood pyrotechnics industry employed for aeons to come! It’s _ **War of the Roses 2!!!** _ (Note: I thought of this several years ago as a joke … and then I saw [this entry](http://us.imdb.com/Details?0133271) in the Internet Movie Database. \ ) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Lexicon \* > **Another Hackers would be pretty cool, one where they don’t say shit like “Wow! A 28.8 modem!

I’d love to see another Terminator…however, the one I really want can’t be done, since the character died in T1.

A BRAVEHEART sequel is possible. Sure, Wallace is dead, but it took 8 years from the time of his death for the last scene to happen (You have bled with Wallace! Now bleed with ME!). They could do a sequel about Robert the Bruce’s struggle to the throne. I know most of the ladies I know would rush to the box office to see more of Angus MacFayden playing the Bruce… ---

I’d really like to see House of Wax 3-D done with good modern special effects. They are re-releasing it now, in the original, as a campy joke, but it’s one of the few 3-D movies that worked. ---

How about a sequel to The Patriot? It’s 1812, and Benjamin Martin’s son (who looks just like his dad) has started a family of his own when suddenly… Then comes The Patriot Part Three: in 1814, Benjamin Martin takes a little trip, along with Col. Jackson down the might Mississip’… Then, in 1836, Benjamin Martin’s grandson (who looks exactly like his granddad) moves to Texas to start a family… It can go on and on and on… ---

I want to see the sequel to “Three Weddings and a Funeral”. There were so many characters and story lines that could be continued, and some of my favorite stars. ---

How about a sequel to **Stargate**? I know there’s a tv series with _Macguyver_ running around, shooting at alines instead of coming up with cool gadgets out of gum wrappers and paper clips, but the show is interesting nonetheless. I noticed that a new Tom Clancy flick is due out called **Sum of All Fears**. Although Harrison Ford will no longer be playing his role as Jack Ryan, I say they should’ve made **Rainbow Six** the next Tom Clancy movie instead. Oh well, as long as their are some cool scenes of special forces taking down many terrorists. ---

I’ll have to find out if they ever finished it and if they have a copy somewhere. 🙂 \*\* Well, according to the book translated by William Goldman, of S. Morgenstern’s Timeless Classic, _The Princess Bride_ (The Good Parts Version), they all lived happily ever after, until Inigo keeled over from his belly wound, Westley had a relapse of death and Prince Humperdink and his soldiers caught up to them. ☹ ---

Ferris works for a large corporation now and wants to take the day off. Hilarity ensues. I think a sequel to Hamlet would be great. There’s gotta be one or two characters left that have an interesting story to tell. I mean, you ever read the book Rambo was based on? EVERYONE dies! That didn’t stop two sequels from being made there, did it? ---

I was thinking the same thing. But in a time travel movie, they can bring back _anyone_, so I remain hopeful. 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-movie-would-you-like-to-see-a-sequel/38631.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-movie-would-you-like-to-see-a-sequel/38631.md?page=3)
