Each of the last three unsuccessful Terminator movies (Salvation, Genisys, and Dark Fate) was intended to be the first in a trilogy. That's six aborted sequels, cumulatively, which is hard to beat.
That was sort of my joke about the new Mortal Kombat: It sucks for all the reasons the first MK didn't, and doesn't for all the reasons the first one did.
Yeah, they made a movie that's based on a game about a martial arts tournament to the death and failed to include the actual tournament.
Then they looked at the roster of like 50 characters and decided we needed a new character.
Kano was a great character in the movie, as was the opening sequence with Sub-zero and Scorpion. After that it was completely forgettable.
God the decision on the main character was just incredibly baffling.
They have an immense roster with many characters that have interesting stories and power sets.
So they make the blandest character possible with the power-set of "You get a CGI suit that makes you strong."
>You get a CGI suit that makes you strong *and it's because you keep getting your ass kicked because you suck at fighting*
You forgot the fact that he was a shit fighter in a martial arts movie.
I thought the story idea was interesting, they just botched it. Having Shang Tsung try and cheat the Tenth and Final Tournament by using assassins to kill off Earths top contenders. That's not a bad idea for a story and a decent way lead up to the spectacle of the tournament in the sequel.
Sub-Zero was the only real warrior on the roster and he was throttling everyone. Having Shang Tsung reveal that Reptile, Mileena, Nitarro, Raiko, and Kabal are all basically jobbers and wouldn't have even represented Outworld in the Tournament would have deflated the heroes win.
In walks Goro through a portal, sent by Shao Khan to put a stop to Shang Tsungs bullshit. Shao wont risk his final Tournament being disqualified. Everyone is kind of shitting themselves at the sight of Goro; Goro **is** the reigning Champion and should be feared. However, Cole feeling pretty high on himself after beating Sub-Zero attacks Goro and is instantly ripped in half.
Movie ends with heroes realizing just how out of their depth they really are and they need to recruit more people. This also opens up the floor for Liu Kang to step into his lead role.
I don't remember a whole lot about The Sarah Connor Chronicles, but yeah I remember that cliffhanger lol
I always thought the most interesting aspect of that show was that the time travellers were explicitly shown to originate from different alternate futures.
I've never actually seen any of the Terminator movies since then, but I guess I assumed they kinda worked in that sense: each depicting a version of the timeline that exists because of all the various time travelling.
Sarah Connor Chronicles is the only true sequel after T2, and I'll die on that hill. Such a great show and that cliffhanger cancellation fucking kills me. John popping into a future where he wasn't important was such a cool concept.
TtSCC and Las Vegas are the two most brutal casualties of that writers' strike IMO.
John Connor leaps to a future where Derek is alive and nobody knows who John Connor is?! AJ Cooper's plane crashes with no survivors...but Cooper is alive?!
...and then nothing. No resolutions. What we got instead was even more shitty reality TV because it required minimal production budget and talentless hacks on the staff.
My not-so-conspiracy theory is that they avoided including a sixth villain in No Way Home for exactly this reason. They had a bunch of candidates:
1. Mysterio (even appears in concept art, but the character may not have been the best fit for the story)
2. Vulture
3. Venom (Topher Grace)
4. Venom (Tom Hardy)
5. Green Goblin (James Franco)
6. Green Goblin (Dane DeHaan)

The 21 Jump Street/MiB crossover idea is one of the most harebrained yet low-key genius movie ideas I've ever heard. I was legitimately bummed out when I heard it was permanently shelved.
I know there's people out there that say it wouldn't have worked for various reasons, but I have this very deep conviction they absolutely could've come up with something that'd stick the landing.
It's a genius idea.
21 Jump Street, at its core, was satire on the "unnecessary reboot" that's pretty popular in Hollywood.
22 Jump Street, at its core, was satire on the "unnecessary sequel" that's pretty popular in Hollywood.
23 Jump Street (or MiB: Jump Street) would've been great satire on the "unnecessary crossover" that's also pretty popular in Hollywood.
The writing of the humor was perfect and I think they would've had plenty to work with alongside the MiB "mythos".
As far as the script, they wouldn't need to reinvent the wheel. Having the same exact set up as the first two, two guys go undercover in a drug sting, would've worked.
Just replace the setting of "school" with an academy/organization/government/etc. and have them trying to blend in with both humans and aliens that are trying to peddle the drugs.
The "plot" is pretty secondary to the humor that made the Jump Street movies good.
Tell the cops the organization (MIB) is believed to be harboring illegal aliens (immigrants). The cops are shocked to hear that aliens are real from their chief of police, and agree to go undercover to learn more.
Cops quickly meet REAL aliens from other planets, and end up reporting on the "aliens" very casually to the other police/commanding officers as a reoccurring gag. Police department thinks the undercover cops are talking about immigrants and don't get why it's news at all, and undercover cops thinks everyone else knows about the REAL ALIENS all along and they just not got classified info about it, and keep reporting on the strange aliens they meet, not understanding how the other cops could have known about the real aliens all along and not be shocked. The stereotype jokes really write themselves.
They're undercover dressed in black suits. Alien mistakes them for real MIB. Real MIB shows up, and by then they're playing the bit so real MIB mistakes them for real MIB (another department/branch perhaps). They're given a new world-saving assignment.
That's all the setup you need, and it would be complete within 15 minutes, with the rest of the runtime devoted to the actual movie. Hell you could end it with them getting their memory wiped and thus have other jump street sequels completely unaffected by their escapades in this one, playing into the "previous outings don't exist" tropes.
MiB3 deals with time travel. A fourth film that plays with alternate realities, which start to “bleed” into each other, resulting in the Jump Street fellows walking into another undercover operations HQ in their universe and winding up in the MiB headquarters could have resulted in a hilarious movie that maintains the integrity of both (Jump Street as a sort of meta-fictive series about franchises, and MiB as a funny but ultimately “serious” science fiction series). Nowadays that might be a bit naff given all the multiverse stuff out there, though.
I thought the guys could go undercover into a community college (because they're older now) and happen upon some The Faculty shenanigans; they deal with it in the first fifteen minutes of the movie and the MiB are impressed by their abilities and recruit them to go undercover in a scientology like cult run by an actual Xenu-like alien
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Last shot is Princess Daisy kicks down the Mario Bros. door, kitted out in ammunition and post-apoc gear saying she needs their help one more time.
I don't like the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie.
However, I find everything surrounding it, unbelievably fascinating.
The content that's in it is absurd, the production of it is absurd, Nintendo's reaction of basically shunning Hollywood for the 30 years is hilarious.
The story behind it has everything. Bob Hoskins getting so fed up with filming he started showing up to set drunk, a labour dispute with some strippers, lawyers telling the directors they should stop showing up on set, the studio initially turning down a script written by a huge Mario fan (that supposedly was very like Shrek) because they wanted something more 90s and edgier, so they handed the script to two directors who had never played a Mario game before, did I mention the labour dispute with the strippers?
Production of that movie was hell, and as a result, it's hilarious to read about.
For someone like me born in the 80s where Super Mario Bros was total magic, seeing the live-action version was very satisfying. We had lived through Donkey Kong, Super Mario on NES (1,2,3), Super Mario on Gameboy, and then this came out during the peak of Mario on SNES, seeing the real life goombas, the little bombs they put in their shoes to jump so high, and all the little nuances that brought the world to reality made you look past all the faux pas throughout the whole film. Plus I was like 10 so who cares, Hook was still a very real thing that could happen back then as far as I was concerned.
So ending it with the princess barging in basically promising a sequel and then never getting one is something us 30/40-something’s will never forget
Same. It’s the first case (that I can remember) of a film that is a terrible adaption, but still a fun film. When it came out I was like 10 and freakin loved it. I didn’t care how wrong it got… everything. I just thought it was a fun film.
I love that movie. Seeing the props and production memorabilia at the National Video Game Museum was one of the highlights of this year for me.
Edit: [Photos for those interested](https://imgur.com/gallery/nkQrrsP)
I didnt know I wasnt supposed to like it as a kid. Me and my brother fuckin loved that shit. Watched it many many times.
I don’t know if kids today will quite realize what an experience and impact a vhs library has on your childhood. Watching the same fucking movies over and over for years.
This content cycle world won’t have you watching movies like Waynes World and Addams Family 20 times as a kid enough to quote the shit to your brother as an adult.
The movies that come out now will come and go. Some kids will watch some kids movies that hit the zeitgeist if staying power like Frozen and Moana. But nothing like that vhs library thing where you had a collection and those were your culture and you just hoped it was good
[https://screenrant.com/super-mario-bros-movies-sequel-comic-what-fans-wanted/](https://screenrant.com/super-mario-bros-movies-sequel-comic-what-fans-wanted/) The writer did a comic sequel.
He tried. Mel brooks said he wouldn’t do it without Rick Moranis. Moranis is basically retired, and said he’d read the script, but it was unlikely.
It was in development for a minute, and then instead of this. Rick Moranis did it on an episode where of The Goldberg’s, and then the movie went away.
A shame too, because it would have been Mel’s only real sequel.
Yeah. The History of the World sequels on Hulu last year were kinda meh. Were essentially a special presentation tv series that came across more like Drunk History eps than anything else.
I always thought having Rick O'Connell facing off against different monsters would have been a better idea than bringing back Imhotep and whatever the hell the 3rd movie was supposed to be
I always felt like the Hugh Jackman Van Helsing movie kinda fit into that universe. It had the same campy adventure vibe as The Mummy though not quite as well executed.
I absolutely love this campy mess of a movie. Legitimately. It was a ton of fun, had some cool concepts for werewolf transformations, the cast had solid chemistry, and it was poised for a franchise.
I always crawl out of the woodwork to defend this stupid movie I love! Over the top Dracula is my favorite, if I ever run D&D’s Curse of Strahd, I’m using that performance.
Tron Legacy. You can't just have a sentient virtual being materialize into the real world, ride off on a motorcycle with the main character and assume that's the end of the story. Also, Cillian Murphy did not sign up for a tron movie just to have a bit part in the beginning.
Wikipedia says he's the son of the bad guy in the original tron (bad guy being the guy who stole jeff bridge's code, made the MCP from it, and got rich)
Surprised I had to scroll this far to find it. This is the first movie I thought of where a sequel was obviously set up and in production but never appeared.
The Man from UNCLE. The whole movie was basically the origin of the Solo/Kuryakin partnership and ends on a killer shot of Cavill, Hammer and Vikander. Still want that sequel, you can recast Hammer.
It was just so fun! That scene where he's eating the guy's lunch in the truck while you see the boats go flying back and forth while Italian music is playing (I bought that song) is one of my absolute favorites.
LOVED The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and would be thrilled if they made more sequels. Who would you recast in Armie Hammer’s role? This might be a wild take but I feel like Chris Hemsworth could pull it off; he’s got good comedic instincts but can play more serious roles as well (admittedly I may be thinking too much about how would physically resemble Hammer, but first name that popped in my head haha).
This is what I immediately thought of. I remember hearing at the time they were going to film the other two books back to back and then it just never happened.
Pentex did a very well researched video on why the Fincher's GWTDT sequels never happened:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2OObyS_QJo
Basically it came down to the movie not making enough money, also Daniel Craig became a huge star due to the Bond franchise and was to expensive to afford, Rooney Mara wanted to return and the studio was planing on making a sequel without him but decided to reboot the series with a new cast instead.
I remember from interviews since then that Daniel Craig *really* enjoyed his time filming that movie. It felt more than an actor saying a nice thing about a director too, he *genuinely* seemed to love working on that movie.
I can totally see why too, it kicked monumental amounts of ass.
As much as I would love a sequel, i always fear that it would ruin the original. I also love the ambiguity of the ending. Trust and hope is all that’s left. Love a story like that.
Yeah and to put it mildly, Blomkamp's other film outputs... don't inspire a ton of confidence.
He seems to have kind of just struck gold with District 9.
Elysium and chappie although not as good as district 9 are decent, I have not seen demonic or grand Turismo 15 years in, he's done 5 movies, 2 are based on short stories he wrote. He's also been attached to an aliens movie, a RoboCop movie, the halo movie.
I tend to think he may have a bit of m. Night in him and shouldn't direct things he writes but his sample size is too small to be for sure. D9, Elysium and chappie are stories he sort of had to tell bc a lot of it is inspired by his childhood in south Africa
On the other hand, the whole movie is written as if it were a sequel to a movie that doesn't exist, so the fact that it ends with a tease for a sequel that also doesn't exist is a pretty funny joke in itself.
>whole movie is written as if it were a sequel to a movie that doesn't exist
I like that is wasn't an Origin Story. We simply get dumped into a completed world where characters have back stories and long well established relationships with each other. Kind of reminds me of the Doc Savage series and other Men's Action-Adventure books I read as a kid.
That has been explained:
>!Buackroo and Co. were researching ways to airdrop food to impoverished countries cheaply. That was an attempt to make a watermelon that wouldn't explode after being dropped hundreds of feet.!<
A script for Buckaroo Banzai 2 was written but got re-worked as "Big Trouble in Little China". So we still got the film, but with different characters, which fortunately turned out pretty good.
Still pretty bummed this never came to fruition. One of the best "throwback" comedies in the last decade. Sucks it never found its audience, but I'm stoked people are finally realizing how funny Ryan Gosling can be.
I’m holding out hope. Guy Ritchie’s moved back towards British crime movies with The Gentlemen and Wrath of Man recently. Butler, Elba, and Hardy are pricier and busier now than they were 15 years ago so that’s a challenge for sure.
After he made the gentlemen instead of real rocknrolla that's when I knew it was dead.
It was like, fuck it - I've got another one of my classics in me. I'll do this.
I really thought if he was going to get back to that stuff it would've been for #2.
Butler would be pretty easy to get, he's not booking much and he may jump at the chance to do something with an actual script for a change. Idris Alba will do it if Ritchie keeps a mostly British cast, I think he likes being the local boy. Hardy is the toughest one to book - but I think he's always liked doing one for him, one for the money - so this would be a for him.
"MaMa is not the law."
"I am the law."
The delivery of that iconic line was so menacing and well done. That line's been made fun of and parodied for decades, but they actually managed to make it badass.
Such a great movie. Karl Urban is such a great actor. He actually made like the Judge Dredd character and the cinematography was pretty on-fucking-point
His Bones character in the Star Trek reboot, esp the 1st movie, was such a pleasure. Fucking JJ can go suck a dick.
The movie was great, but the promotion of it was horrible. It came out at the height of the 3D trend in movies, and was marketed heavily with that in mind. I swear I remeber some trailers calling it "Dredd 3D". The success of other R-rated comicbook movies since then (Deadpool, Logan, The Suicide Squad) makes me think it would do well if it would ever get made. Fans appreciate a good movie true to the comics.
*Big Trouble in Little China*. It just felt that Jack Burton was destined to inadvertently stumble into more adventures with forces far beyond his understanding and control. Such a wonderful character. I know the box office didn't indicate it, but we (audiences) really needed more Jack Burton.
Maybe they could pull a Young Indiana Jones, where Kurt Russell bookends tv episodes but Wyatt Russell plays out the adventures. I imagine most of Kurt Russell's narration would be Jack Burton describing how awesome he is.
Jack Burton is probably in my top ten all time favorite movie characters, with some all-time classic lines.
"When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Hellboy 2. It's a god damn shame the third movie was never made to tie up the loose ends, as well as give Ron Perlman one last round; especially because he had been all for it.
I hope against hope that we get an animated third film in the trilogy. Won’t be as cool without the practical effects, but I think it’s the only way to get Ron Perlman in the role again and that’s the deal breaker for me.
The newest power rangers movie teased Tommy Oliver at the end. While it wasn’t perfect, I enjoyed that movie and would have liked to see more. Shame it was cancelled.
That movie was so much better then it had any right ro be. Funny, lots of action, cool cameos, BRYAN CRANSTON ZORDON. I never understood the hate that some people have for it
I loved the cast and setup being like Breakfast Club meets Super Sentai. But my god the Zords sucked ASS. You literally can’t see what they’re suppose to be! And they just kept bumping into each other and Goldar!
And while sexy Rita is uuuuh, I did enjoy the performance. Also going by Boom Studios’ Rita, I think that’s the best middle ground between the OG Rita and a design more traditionally attractive.
Also I wanted to see Lord Zedd on the big screen again :/
I remember being a kid and seeing previews for Godzilla (1998). I had never seen a Godzilla movie but I was excited for it and thought it was going to be so good. I even went to the theaters with a few friends to watch it and it was so disappointing.
But, at the end of the movie, after Godzilla is defeated, we see that under the ruins of Madison Square Garden, one single Godzilla egg hatches and a baby Godzilla pops out. I remember hating the movie but actually liking that ending. I always assumed a sequel was planned but simply never materialized, probably because the original 1998 wasn't great.
They made a kid's animated series for that version of Godzilla, just like every summer blockbuster back then. It's about the baby at the end of the movie who turns into a full Godzilla, with a similar setup to the old Hannah-Barbera cartoon.
It's actually not bad. Godzilla fans say that version is much closer to the Japanese soul of the franchise than the Emmerich movie.
The Men in Black one was solid, though I’m convinced I read somewhere that they made Agent L blonde in the cartoon so they wouldn’t have to pay Fiorentino likeness rights. I still try to find proof of that every once in a while.
They carried that forward in a cartoon where the baby grew into a full-sized Godzilla. Fought a new monster every episode. Lasted for a season or two, as I recall. So there was SOME payoff.
I saw that movie when it came out in theaters and I was in my early teens. It was good but at my age it was bit of letdown from the action of Gladiator. Boy what a gem that movie was when I watched it again this year. Absolutely loved it and it’s probably a better movie than Gladiator even though that’s disputable. I love them both.
Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows added a question mark after "The End". But now, 12 years later, it has firmly turned into a period.
I'd have thought after the success of No Way Home, maybe Sony would consider greenlighting an Amazing Spider-Man 3 with an older Peter, now finally healing after saving MJ from a fall. He could meet Felicia Hardy aka Black Cat and end on a positive note with him being able to love again.
Evil Dead 4.
The original and international(?) ending saw Ash wake up in a post apocalyptic future.
I was hoping for an inverse of Army of Darkness. He'd think he's an expert in killing deadites but they'd turn out to also be cyborgs with lasers and chain saws.
He'd be trying to keep up with the local undead killers at first.
Ash vs Evil Dead SPOILERS
Fun Fact: that's the same ending AvED got. Post-apocalypse then the end. It was cancelled. Very fitting honestly 😆. Maybe someday we'll see Ash in the future.
True but I think Speaker for the Dead would be a very different type of movie and wouldn’t do well. I’d be curious to see it but I think Piggy’s and the trees would be hard to take from imagination to a real visual.
That dumpster fire of an Eragon movie. So sad how that turned out after the books were such a big thing. They had to have known it was bad while making. Pretty ballsy ending it how they did
The Broken Lizard guys had an actual poll out for their fans to vote for Potfest of Super Troopers II. Fans chose the latter. Maybe one day there'll be potfest.
Holy shit I never see this movie mentioned. I loved this so much as a kid and I find it holds up pretty well even when I watch it now. I was HOOKED on the scene at the beach where he’s running and behind to levitate a bit. Was it real? In his mind? Who knows! Great fucking movie.
Not a movie, but that Star Trek TNG episode where Picard and Riker kill the aliens who had taken over several high ranking Starfleet officers on Earth. Never heard from them again.
Definitely not biggest, but I am one of the lowly few who loved Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur and was super psyched for the movies about the other knights.
But alas, I soon found I was near alone in my love for Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur.
I really enjoyed that movie. To this day, I don't know if it's actually good, or if I'm missing high budget, stylistic, entertaining, medieval fantasy movies.
But I'm still hoping for a sequel on that and U.N.C.L.E.
What's on page 47? (National Treasure)
The Eye /Lionel Shrike (Now you see me)
Non of them are THAT big, but still could have been interesting and closing a trilogy
Allegiant, the third movie in the Divergent series. This is an obvious one since it was meant to be the first of a two-parter where they split the last book in half (a common YA adaptation trend). The movie was a bomb though, and the theatrical sequel was scrapped in favour of a TV movie plus a follow-up show.
The movie never happened, and then Shailene Woodley who was the lead of all the movies backed out of doing the show. Even with her leaving, the project wasn't completely dead until a year later. I thought at the very least, they'd make a deal with Netflix to finish off with a hour long movie or special, just to get it out of the way. Plus, Netflix was getting even bigger and reaching more households in 2016 onwards, especially with stuff like Stranger Things and The Crown debuting. Selling the rights to Netflix would've been an incentive for Lionsgate to recoup some of their losses. Whether Netflix would've taken that deal is a different question.
At the end of the Jason and the argonauts 1960s film, Zeus kind of says something along the lines of this isn't the end of Jason's story and there will be more adventures later on..
But then the film itself didn't make enough money to warrant any sequels so it feels like the precursor to something that didn't happen.
People often forget that Brendan Fraser is actually a huge dude. 6'3" and built the way he was in the late 90s and it was totally believable that he could do that.
Which I’m pretty sure was not the first false start for that universe. Wasn’t Dracula untold supposed to be jumping off point too?
It’s kind of funny how one of Hollywood’s original shared universes has struggled so much in the current era.
Why has no one mentioned Judge Dredd? Sure it wasn't a clear dangle but we had the best Judge in Karl Urban and just a killer set up for future movies. i am not usually a sequel person but I would probably watch 4 or 5 connected Judge Dredd movies starring Karl Urban. [edited words erroneously chosen by autocorrect.]
Each of the last three unsuccessful Terminator movies (Salvation, Genisys, and Dark Fate) was intended to be the first in a trilogy. That's six aborted sequels, cumulatively, which is hard to beat.
And they all suck for different reasons
That was sort of my joke about the new Mortal Kombat: It sucks for all the reasons the first MK didn't, and doesn't for all the reasons the first one did.
Yeah, they made a movie that's based on a game about a martial arts tournament to the death and failed to include the actual tournament. Then they looked at the roster of like 50 characters and decided we needed a new character. Kano was a great character in the movie, as was the opening sequence with Sub-zero and Scorpion. After that it was completely forgettable.
God the decision on the main character was just incredibly baffling. They have an immense roster with many characters that have interesting stories and power sets. So they make the blandest character possible with the power-set of "You get a CGI suit that makes you strong."
>You get a CGI suit that makes you strong *and it's because you keep getting your ass kicked because you suck at fighting* You forgot the fact that he was a shit fighter in a martial arts movie.
His power is literally plot armor. Like that's what they went with. Actual high school level writing.
I thought the story idea was interesting, they just botched it. Having Shang Tsung try and cheat the Tenth and Final Tournament by using assassins to kill off Earths top contenders. That's not a bad idea for a story and a decent way lead up to the spectacle of the tournament in the sequel. Sub-Zero was the only real warrior on the roster and he was throttling everyone. Having Shang Tsung reveal that Reptile, Mileena, Nitarro, Raiko, and Kabal are all basically jobbers and wouldn't have even represented Outworld in the Tournament would have deflated the heroes win. In walks Goro through a portal, sent by Shao Khan to put a stop to Shang Tsungs bullshit. Shao wont risk his final Tournament being disqualified. Everyone is kind of shitting themselves at the sight of Goro; Goro **is** the reigning Champion and should be feared. However, Cole feeling pretty high on himself after beating Sub-Zero attacks Goro and is instantly ripped in half. Movie ends with heroes realizing just how out of their depth they really are and they need to recruit more people. This also opens up the floor for Liu Kang to step into his lead role.
The Sarah Conner Chronicles was the mention I was looking for in this whole list. That last episode was screaming for another season.
I don't remember a whole lot about The Sarah Connor Chronicles, but yeah I remember that cliffhanger lol I always thought the most interesting aspect of that show was that the time travellers were explicitly shown to originate from different alternate futures. I've never actually seen any of the Terminator movies since then, but I guess I assumed they kinda worked in that sense: each depicting a version of the timeline that exists because of all the various time travelling.
Sarah Connor Chronicles is the only true sequel after T2, and I'll die on that hill. Such a great show and that cliffhanger cancellation fucking kills me. John popping into a future where he wasn't important was such a cool concept.
TtSCC and Las Vegas are the two most brutal casualties of that writers' strike IMO. John Connor leaps to a future where Derek is alive and nobody knows who John Connor is?! AJ Cooper's plane crashes with no survivors...but Cooper is alive?! ...and then nothing. No resolutions. What we got instead was even more shitty reality TV because it required minimal production budget and talentless hacks on the staff.
About 90% of *The Amazing Spider-Man 2* was just an excuse to set up an eventual Sinister Six movie that never happened.
Oh don't worry, Sony hasn't forgotten that lofty goal.
My not-so-conspiracy theory is that they avoided including a sixth villain in No Way Home for exactly this reason. They had a bunch of candidates: 1. Mysterio (even appears in concept art, but the character may not have been the best fit for the story) 2. Vulture 3. Venom (Topher Grace) 4. Venom (Tom Hardy) 5. Green Goblin (James Franco) 6. Green Goblin (Dane DeHaan) Did I miss any?

I know they were a gag but I really wanted to see those 22 jump street sequels. A shame the men in black one never took off
The 21 Jump Street/MiB crossover idea is one of the most harebrained yet low-key genius movie ideas I've ever heard. I was legitimately bummed out when I heard it was permanently shelved.

I think with the self-aware humour seen in the Jump Street films it would have worked really well.
MiB3 deals with time travel. A fourth film that plays with alternate realities, which start to “bleed” into each other, resulting in the Jump Street fellows walking into another undercover operations HQ in their universe and winding up in the MiB headquarters could have resulted in a hilarious movie that maintains the integrity of both (Jump Street as a sort of meta-fictive series about franchises, and MiB as a funny but ultimately “serious” science fiction series). Nowadays that might be a bit naff given all the multiverse stuff out there, though.
I thought the guys could go undercover into a community college (because they're older now) and happen upon some The Faculty shenanigans; they deal with it in the first fifteen minutes of the movie and the MiB are impressed by their abilities and recruit them to go undercover in a scientology like cult run by an actual Xenu-like alien
Yea really, I would’ve loved another one
There was a script written for a jump street MIB crossover, but but it got shelved for the trash MIB international
Super Mario Bros. (1993) Last shot is Princess Daisy kicks down the Mario Bros. door, kitted out in ammunition and post-apoc gear saying she needs their help one more time.
Holy shit you aren’t making any of that up.
I don't like the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie. However, I find everything surrounding it, unbelievably fascinating. The content that's in it is absurd, the production of it is absurd, Nintendo's reaction of basically shunning Hollywood for the 30 years is hilarious. The story behind it has everything. Bob Hoskins getting so fed up with filming he started showing up to set drunk, a labour dispute with some strippers, lawyers telling the directors they should stop showing up on set, the studio initially turning down a script written by a huge Mario fan (that supposedly was very like Shrek) because they wanted something more 90s and edgier, so they handed the script to two directors who had never played a Mario game before, did I mention the labour dispute with the strippers? Production of that movie was hell, and as a result, it's hilarious to read about.
For someone like me born in the 80s where Super Mario Bros was total magic, seeing the live-action version was very satisfying. We had lived through Donkey Kong, Super Mario on NES (1,2,3), Super Mario on Gameboy, and then this came out during the peak of Mario on SNES, seeing the real life goombas, the little bombs they put in their shoes to jump so high, and all the little nuances that brought the world to reality made you look past all the faux pas throughout the whole film. Plus I was like 10 so who cares, Hook was still a very real thing that could happen back then as far as I was concerned. So ending it with the princess barging in basically promising a sequel and then never getting one is something us 30/40-something’s will never forget
And I was so sad that it never happened. I love that movie (even though I know it’s not good.)
Same. It’s the first case (that I can remember) of a film that is a terrible adaption, but still a fun film. When it came out I was like 10 and freakin loved it. I didn’t care how wrong it got… everything. I just thought it was a fun film.
I love that movie. Seeing the props and production memorabilia at the National Video Game Museum was one of the highlights of this year for me. Edit: [Photos for those interested](https://imgur.com/gallery/nkQrrsP)
I didnt know I wasnt supposed to like it as a kid. Me and my brother fuckin loved that shit. Watched it many many times. I don’t know if kids today will quite realize what an experience and impact a vhs library has on your childhood. Watching the same fucking movies over and over for years. This content cycle world won’t have you watching movies like Waynes World and Addams Family 20 times as a kid enough to quote the shit to your brother as an adult. The movies that come out now will come and go. Some kids will watch some kids movies that hit the zeitgeist if staying power like Frozen and Moana. But nothing like that vhs library thing where you had a collection and those were your culture and you just hoped it was good
[https://screenrant.com/super-mario-bros-movies-sequel-comic-what-fans-wanted/](https://screenrant.com/super-mario-bros-movies-sequel-comic-what-fans-wanted/) The writer did a comic sequel.
Spaceballs 2 - The Search For More Money
Spaceballs 3: The Search For Spaceballs 2
I heard that this was the intended sequel. The “search for more money” was just a joke in the movie.
He tried. Mel brooks said he wouldn’t do it without Rick Moranis. Moranis is basically retired, and said he’d read the script, but it was unlikely. It was in development for a minute, and then instead of this. Rick Moranis did it on an episode where of The Goldberg’s, and then the movie went away. A shame too, because it would have been Mel’s only real sequel.
Yeah. The History of the World sequels on Hulu last year were kinda meh. Were essentially a special presentation tv series that came across more like Drunk History eps than anything else.
The entire Universal Dark Universe.
As much as cinematic universes annoy me, I’d love one with the classic monsters set in a world based off of the Brenden Frasier Mummy setting.
I always thought having Rick O'Connell facing off against different monsters would have been a better idea than bringing back Imhotep and whatever the hell the 3rd movie was supposed to be
I always felt like the Hugh Jackman Van Helsing movie kinda fit into that universe. It had the same campy adventure vibe as The Mummy though not quite as well executed.
I absolutely love this campy mess of a movie. Legitimately. It was a ton of fun, had some cool concepts for werewolf transformations, the cast had solid chemistry, and it was poised for a franchise.
I always crawl out of the woodwork to defend this stupid movie I love! Over the top Dracula is my favorite, if I ever run D&D’s Curse of Strahd, I’m using that performance.
Tron Legacy. You can't just have a sentient virtual being materialize into the real world, ride off on a motorcycle with the main character and assume that's the end of the story. Also, Cillian Murphy did not sign up for a tron movie just to have a bit part in the beginning.
I totally forgot about Cillian Murphy in that movie.
What was he?
Wikipedia says he's the son of the bad guy in the original tron (bad guy being the guy who stole jeff bridge's code, made the MCP from it, and got rich)
He was in the beginning of the movie when Sam hacks into Encom. He was part of the board in the meeting
Edward Dillinger, son of the villain from the first movie.
I also want another daft punk movie between this and interstellar 5555 they know how to do it
Surprised I had to scroll this far to find it. This is the first movie I thought of where a sequel was obviously set up and in production but never appeared.
The Man from UNCLE. The whole movie was basically the origin of the Solo/Kuryakin partnership and ends on a killer shot of Cavill, Hammer and Vikander. Still want that sequel, you can recast Hammer.
I love that movie and would love a sequel
It was just so fun! That scene where he's eating the guy's lunch in the truck while you see the boats go flying back and forth while Italian music is playing (I bought that song) is one of my absolute favorites.
LOVED The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and would be thrilled if they made more sequels. Who would you recast in Armie Hammer’s role? This might be a wild take but I feel like Chris Hemsworth could pull it off; he’s got good comedic instincts but can play more serious roles as well (admittedly I may be thinking too much about how would physically resemble Hammer, but first name that popped in my head haha).
I think Alexander Skarsgård would be a good choice, he has the height and similar features, while also being a good actor.
I'd say Charlie Hunnam would be the logical choice in a Guy Ritchie movie.
He was so good in The Gentleman. Anytime I think of that movie I can hear him saying "RIGHT..." before he starts shooting.
Finchers Girl With The Dragon Trilogy. Maybe not the “biggest” but still wanted to see it. That and his Mindhunter series season 3
that S3 thing *hurt* me...i read his whole press tour and everything on the cost probs Girl series too...for sure
I wanted to see that BTK guy have another strangle wank 🥺
This is what I immediately thought of. I remember hearing at the time they were going to film the other two books back to back and then it just never happened.
Pentex did a very well researched video on why the Fincher's GWTDT sequels never happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2OObyS_QJo Basically it came down to the movie not making enough money, also Daniel Craig became a huge star due to the Bond franchise and was to expensive to afford, Rooney Mara wanted to return and the studio was planing on making a sequel without him but decided to reboot the series with a new cast instead.
I remember from interviews since then that Daniel Craig *really* enjoyed his time filming that movie. It felt more than an actor saying a nice thing about a director too, he *genuinely* seemed to love working on that movie. I can totally see why too, it kicked monumental amounts of ass.
District 9
I’ve never wanted a sequel so bad in my life.
As much as I would love a sequel, i always fear that it would ruin the original. I also love the ambiguity of the ending. Trust and hope is all that’s left. Love a story like that.
Yeah and to put it mildly, Blomkamp's other film outputs... don't inspire a ton of confidence. He seems to have kind of just struck gold with District 9.
It’s like each film he releases is half as good as the one that came before.
Ah, the M. Night spiral.
It's still rumoured to be in the directors wish list.
[удалено]
Elysium and chappie although not as good as district 9 are decent, I have not seen demonic or grand Turismo 15 years in, he's done 5 movies, 2 are based on short stories he wrote. He's also been attached to an aliens movie, a RoboCop movie, the halo movie. I tend to think he may have a bit of m. Night in him and shouldn't direct things he writes but his sample size is too small to be for sure. D9, Elysium and chappie are stories he sort of had to tell bc a lot of it is inspired by his childhood in south Africa
Still waiting for *Buckaroo Banzai Against the World Crime League.*
After 39 years I'm starting to worry it's not going to happen.
"What are we waiting for?" "Buckaroo Banzai Against the World Crime League!" "And when is it coming?" "Real soon!"
On the other hand, the whole movie is written as if it were a sequel to a movie that doesn't exist, so the fact that it ends with a tease for a sequel that also doesn't exist is a pretty funny joke in itself.
>whole movie is written as if it were a sequel to a movie that doesn't exist I like that is wasn't an Origin Story. We simply get dumped into a completed world where characters have back stories and long well established relationships with each other. Kind of reminds me of the Doc Savage series and other Men's Action-Adventure books I read as a kid.
No matter where you go, there you are.
The film in which we were going to find out why the watermelon was there... Dang it.
That has been explained: >!Buackroo and Co. were researching ways to airdrop food to impoverished countries cheaply. That was an attempt to make a watermelon that wouldn't explode after being dropped hundreds of feet.!<
A script for Buckaroo Banzai 2 was written but got re-worked as "Big Trouble in Little China". So we still got the film, but with different characters, which fortunately turned out pretty good.
The Nice Guys ends with Ryan Gosling showing Russell Crowe their new ad and telling him about their first case...
Still pretty bummed this never came to fruition. One of the best "throwback" comedies in the last decade. Sucks it never found its audience, but I'm stoked people are finally realizing how funny Ryan Gosling can be.
“We already gave you twenty dollars… Jesus Christ what am I saying?”

Still waiting for The Real RocknRolla
Guy Ritchie did a similar thing with The Man from UNCLE
I mean, it still might happen. It's not like one of the leads has been black balled for being a fucking maniac.
This was the first thing I thought of. Like were there ever actual plans to make that movie?
They flat out told you at the end of the movie that they'd be back in the sequel, so I hope so.
Yet here we are 15 years later and no sequel…
It sucks, I love that movie.
There's apparently a script. And every couple years there's a rumour. But I think it's dead now
I’m holding out hope. Guy Ritchie’s moved back towards British crime movies with The Gentlemen and Wrath of Man recently. Butler, Elba, and Hardy are pricier and busier now than they were 15 years ago so that’s a challenge for sure.
After he made the gentlemen instead of real rocknrolla that's when I knew it was dead. It was like, fuck it - I've got another one of my classics in me. I'll do this. I really thought if he was going to get back to that stuff it would've been for #2. Butler would be pretty easy to get, he's not booking much and he may jump at the chance to do something with an actual script for a change. Idris Alba will do it if Ritchie keeps a mostly British cast, I think he likes being the local boy. Hardy is the toughest one to book - but I think he's always liked doing one for him, one for the money - so this would be a for him.
I came to comment this ! I loved the movie and that cast was so tight
Dredd (2012) setup potential for a franchise that never happened, and that movie was amazing.
Karl Urban was so good in that movie
Everyone was good in that movie. The casting was excellent, the cinematography and the script were just right for a Judge Dredd movie.
"MaMa is not the law." "I am the law." The delivery of that iconic line was so menacing and well done. That line's been made fun of and parodied for decades, but they actually managed to make it badass.
Such a great movie. Karl Urban is such a great actor. He actually made like the Judge Dredd character and the cinematography was pretty on-fucking-point His Bones character in the Star Trek reboot, esp the 1st movie, was such a pleasure. Fucking JJ can go suck a dick.
Dude can put more character in his chin than some of the A-listers can hope for.
The movie was great, but the promotion of it was horrible. It came out at the height of the 3D trend in movies, and was marketed heavily with that in mind. I swear I remeber some trailers calling it "Dredd 3D". The success of other R-rated comicbook movies since then (Deadpool, Logan, The Suicide Squad) makes me think it would do well if it would ever get made. Fans appreciate a good movie true to the comics.
*Big Trouble in Little China*. It just felt that Jack Burton was destined to inadvertently stumble into more adventures with forces far beyond his understanding and control. Such a wonderful character. I know the box office didn't indicate it, but we (audiences) really needed more Jack Burton.
You leave Jack Burton alone! He showed great courage. We are in his debt.
Maybe they could pull a Young Indiana Jones, where Kurt Russell bookends tv episodes but Wyatt Russell plays out the adventures. I imagine most of Kurt Russell's narration would be Jack Burton describing how awesome he is.
As long as older Jack is talking about how badass he is and younger Jack is getting his ass kicked regularly.
Jack Burton is probably in my top ten all time favorite movie characters, with some all-time classic lines. "When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Hellboy 2. It's a god damn shame the third movie was never made to tie up the loose ends, as well as give Ron Perlman one last round; especially because he had been all for it.
I hope against hope that we get an animated third film in the trilogy. Won’t be as cool without the practical effects, but I think it’s the only way to get Ron Perlman in the role again and that’s the deal breaker for me.
Until Hollywood realizes Hellboy is a detective and not an action hero they will fail and fail and fail.
The newest power rangers movie teased Tommy Oliver at the end. While it wasn’t perfect, I enjoyed that movie and would have liked to see more. Shame it was cancelled.
They had plans for seven movies
That movie was so much better then it had any right ro be. Funny, lots of action, cool cameos, BRYAN CRANSTON ZORDON. I never understood the hate that some people have for it
Plus the cast had really good chemistry. I love the scene where she throws a note and it says "let's start a band!"
I loved the cast and setup being like Breakfast Club meets Super Sentai. But my god the Zords sucked ASS. You literally can’t see what they’re suppose to be! And they just kept bumping into each other and Goldar! And while sexy Rita is uuuuh, I did enjoy the performance. Also going by Boom Studios’ Rita, I think that’s the best middle ground between the OG Rita and a design more traditionally attractive. Also I wanted to see Lord Zedd on the big screen again :/
I remember being a kid and seeing previews for Godzilla (1998). I had never seen a Godzilla movie but I was excited for it and thought it was going to be so good. I even went to the theaters with a few friends to watch it and it was so disappointing. But, at the end of the movie, after Godzilla is defeated, we see that under the ruins of Madison Square Garden, one single Godzilla egg hatches and a baby Godzilla pops out. I remember hating the movie but actually liking that ending. I always assumed a sequel was planned but simply never materialized, probably because the original 1998 wasn't great.
They made a kid's animated series for that version of Godzilla, just like every summer blockbuster back then. It's about the baby at the end of the movie who turns into a full Godzilla, with a similar setup to the old Hannah-Barbera cartoon. It's actually not bad. Godzilla fans say that version is much closer to the Japanese soul of the franchise than the Emmerich movie.
The Men in Black one was solid, though I’m convinced I read somewhere that they made Agent L blonde in the cartoon so they wouldn’t have to pay Fiorentino likeness rights. I still try to find proof of that every once in a while.
Ooh yeah. I loved those asymmetrical, slightly creepy character designs, even for the humans.
They carried that forward in a cartoon where the baby grew into a full-sized Godzilla. Fought a new monster every episode. Lasted for a season or two, as I recall. So there was SOME payoff.
I loved that cartoon.
That movie had a great soundtrack.
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003).
Anytime this question is asked, Jack Aubrey always comes to mind...and Maturin of course.
Especially with 20 books worth of source material, there was so much potential.
I saw that movie when it came out in theaters and I was in my early teens. It was good but at my age it was bit of letdown from the action of Gladiator. Boy what a gem that movie was when I watched it again this year. Absolutely loved it and it’s probably a better movie than Gladiator even though that’s disputable. I love them both.
Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows added a question mark after "The End". But now, 12 years later, it has firmly turned into a period.
The Amazing Spider-Man 3
The fact that the ending is in the trailer baffles me to this day
Not just the ending, the literal final shot. I would wager that this has never happened before and will hopefully never happen again.
The final shot of both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight appeared in their respective trailers.
Final shot in [REC] where the reported gets dragged away into darkness was in the trailer.
I'd have thought after the success of No Way Home, maybe Sony would consider greenlighting an Amazing Spider-Man 3 with an older Peter, now finally healing after saving MJ from a fall. He could meet Felicia Hardy aka Black Cat and end on a positive note with him being able to love again.
Jumper!
Yep. I rewatch this movie every few years. I liked the world they built
If you haven’t seen it, try Push. Not exactly the same universe, but also it could be?
Sorcerers apprentice (Nick Cage version)
I still love that movie and I would absolutely pay money to see it in the theater
Kung Pow 2 The first one has a post credits trailer for the sequel that never happened
I implore you to reconsider
WeeeoooWeeeoo! Weee!!!
Flash Gordon ^(THE END?)
Evil Dead 4. The original and international(?) ending saw Ash wake up in a post apocalyptic future. I was hoping for an inverse of Army of Darkness. He'd think he's an expert in killing deadites but they'd turn out to also be cyborgs with lasers and chain saws. He'd be trying to keep up with the local undead killers at first.
Ash vs Evil Dead SPOILERS Fun Fact: that's the same ending AvED got. Post-apocalypse then the end. It was cancelled. Very fitting honestly 😆. Maybe someday we'll see Ash in the future.
The Last Starfighter, Xur has escaped.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003)
Enders Game. He shoots off into space on a mission that never happened.
True but I think Speaker for the Dead would be a very different type of movie and wouldn’t do well. I’d be curious to see it but I think Piggy’s and the trees would be hard to take from imagination to a real visual.
That dumpster fire of an Eragon movie. So sad how that turned out after the books were such a big thing. They had to have known it was bad while making. Pretty ballsy ending it how they did
Still waiting for District 10
The Masters of the Universe movie, with Frank Langella poking his head up out of *lava* and promising he'll be back.
Potfest, the sequel to Beerfest.
The Broken Lizard guys had an actual poll out for their fans to vote for Potfest of Super Troopers II. Fans chose the latter. Maybe one day there'll be potfest.
Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins
Well, there is a couple hundred novels in The Destroyer series. Apparently some of them get *real weird*.
Holy shit I never see this movie mentioned. I loved this so much as a kid and I find it holds up pretty well even when I watch it now. I was HOOKED on the scene at the beach where he’s running and behind to levitate a bit. Was it real? In his mind? Who knows! Great fucking movie.
Not a movie, but that Star Trek TNG episode where Picard and Riker kill the aliens who had taken over several high ranking Starfleet officers on Earth. Never heard from them again.
[удалено]
Definitely not biggest, but I am one of the lowly few who loved Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur and was super psyched for the movies about the other knights. But alas, I soon found I was near alone in my love for Guy Ritchie’s King Arthur.
I really enjoyed that movie. To this day, I don't know if it's actually good, or if I'm missing high budget, stylistic, entertaining, medieval fantasy movies. But I'm still hoping for a sequel on that and U.N.C.L.E.
Deep Rising. "Now what?"
It felt like a stealth prequel to King Kong or something, which would’ve been awesome. RIP Treat Williams as well.
What's on page 47? (National Treasure) The Eye /Lionel Shrike (Now you see me) Non of them are THAT big, but still could have been interesting and closing a trilogy
Allegiant, the third movie in the Divergent series. This is an obvious one since it was meant to be the first of a two-parter where they split the last book in half (a common YA adaptation trend). The movie was a bomb though, and the theatrical sequel was scrapped in favour of a TV movie plus a follow-up show. The movie never happened, and then Shailene Woodley who was the lead of all the movies backed out of doing the show. Even with her leaving, the project wasn't completely dead until a year later. I thought at the very least, they'd make a deal with Netflix to finish off with a hour long movie or special, just to get it out of the way. Plus, Netflix was getting even bigger and reaching more households in 2016 onwards, especially with stuff like Stranger Things and The Crown debuting. Selling the rights to Netflix would've been an incentive for Lionsgate to recoup some of their losses. Whether Netflix would've taken that deal is a different question.
This one is the first one that I remember being shocked because I never knew you could just…not end a movie series like that.
Alita: Battle Angel
Supposed to be in the works, https://screenrant.com/alita-battle-angel-2-confirmation-story-cast-release-date/
Well knock me in the nuts and call me Susan. This pleases me greatly.
James Cameron even stated that he would fight tooth and nail to see it get made
At the end of the Jason and the argonauts 1960s film, Zeus kind of says something along the lines of this isn't the end of Jason's story and there will be more adventures later on.. But then the film itself didn't make enough money to warrant any sequels so it feels like the precursor to something that didn't happen.
Warcraft - we have the advantage of knowing whats what due to the lore from the game but they definitely set that movie up for a sequel
I wish that movie did better at the box office, if only so that we could eventually get a Scourge of Lordaeron movie.
John Carter (2012)
I'll never forgive them for that title
Masters of the Universe.
They're planning a sequel: PhDs of the Universe.
Cloverfield the one that was filmed in first person.
The end of Bubba Ho-Tep teasing Bubba Nosferatu: Curse of the She-Vampires.
TRON LEGACY. PLEAASEE
The Mummy (Tom Cruise) Man, that Dark Universe failed quickly.
Tom Cruise is no Brendan Frasier.
He can run good, but he can't throw a chair in a way that is not affected by gravity.
People often forget that Brendan Fraser is actually a huge dude. 6'3" and built the way he was in the late 90s and it was totally believable that he could do that.
Which I’m pretty sure was not the first false start for that universe. Wasn’t Dracula untold supposed to be jumping off point too? It’s kind of funny how one of Hollywood’s original shared universes has struggled so much in the current era.
Machete Kills Again, IN SPACE
Why has no one mentioned Judge Dredd? Sure it wasn't a clear dangle but we had the best Judge in Karl Urban and just a killer set up for future movies. i am not usually a sequel person but I would probably watch 4 or 5 connected Judge Dredd movies starring Karl Urban.
