| Imagining more sequels that...those no talent ass clowns had better not ever make | | 2008-08-06 11:10:00 | | Usually in this space, I use my Hawking-like MS Paint skillz to mock a recent film that has no business ever even dreaming of the word "sequel" (Little Man, anyone?) or imagining a sequel to a film that, for whatever reason (genre, box office performance, common sense), would just never have one (Once, There Will Be Blood).However, all the hype and subsequent letdown that was Crystal Skull, along with the latest talks of a Top Gun sequel, has me steaming. It's bad enough that John McClane was reduced to a family-friendly "Yippie Kay Yay Mother-BOOM!" - I don't know if I can stomach the thought of a group of 35-year old Goonies trolling about searching for the grave of Anne Ramsey while a 60-year old Joey Pants chases them. So, I present you with some sequels that, if the studio heads value their lives, better not happen. Ever. And if they do, I implore you to resist the temptation to fill their pockets - George Lucas already has enough money. A Star Wars: Stick Figures movie can't be t | | By: Blog Cabins | | |
| | Christian Bale Eager to Bring Terminator Back, Batman-Style, With Sequels | | 2008-07-22 13:50:55 | | After a decade of floating beneath Hollywood’s radar with critically-acclaimed films like “Empire of the Sun” and “Laurel Canyon” and decent-but-overlooked flicks like “Equilibrium” and “Reign of Fire,” Christian Bale is now the new king of the popcorn movie. And after the record-breaking opening of “The Dark Knight,” he hopes to similarly re-launch another mega-franchise (when he’s not turning himself into police, that is…click here to read the breaking news on Bale’ | | By: El Cine | | |
| | Imagining more sequels that will never happen... | | 2008-05-12 14:48:00 | | (For past installments of this feature, click here.)The setup: It's a favorite pastime of mine to come up with sequel names for movies that will either never be made due to performance, critical response, or just because of their subject matter. A long time ago, Premiere magazine had a feature where they did this (minus the awesome MS Paint work done on the posters, as seen below). Anyway, here's the latest batch:Future sequels: Where She Move. Who She Move. What She Move. I look forward to not seeing all of them.I could have gone with Little Woman here, but that's to close to the literary classic. Besides, I really can't wait for Littlest Man. Where would they go after that?This one, on the other hand, could go forever. I'm sure Jamie Kennedy hopes it does.My MS Paint skillz are so tight, and your caring towards the actual Meet Dave movie so low, that you probably didn't even notice that I added a third "Eddie Murphy" title and a second "mini-Murphy. Yea, I'm that damn good.In which o | | By: Blog Cabins | | |

| Interplay reaffirms Fallout MMO; Earthworm Jim, MDK sequels | | 2008-04-09 20:24:06 | | It's been awhile since we've had an update on Interplay's long-promised Fallout MMO.To get some of you up to speed: plans for a Fallout MMO that could revive the ailing company were teased out of a November 2006 SEC filing. In April of the following year, Bethesda - already hard at work on Fallout 3 - bought the rights to the series from Interplay for $5.75 million. The deal allowed Interplay to be a licensee, paying Bethesda a 12% royalty on net sales of the still-vaporous Fallout MMO. In August, Interplay's CEO stated in an earning statement that "Fallout Online will play a key role in the future of Interplay" and in November the company revealed ambitions to rekindle franchises like Earthworm Jim, MDK, Descent, and Dark Alliance.Now, in yet another earnings report wrapping up their 2007 fiscal year, Interplay reaffirms its ambition to secure funding for the Fallout MMO as well as "creating sequels to some of its most successful games," notably the four listed above.

| | Imagining Sly Stallone sequels that will never happen... | | 2008-02-12 11:30:00 | | (In case you didn't see the post like this from a few weeks back, here it is.)The setup: It's a favorite pastime of mine to come up with sequel names for movies that will either never be made due to performance, critical response, or just because of their subject matter. A long time ago, Premiere magazine had a feature where they did this (minus the awesome MS Paint work done on the posters, as seen below). Anyway, in light of the "success" of 2006's Rocky Balboa and this year's Rambo, here are some "possibilities" for some future Sylvester Stallone sequels:It's been too long since we've had a good trucker movie; perhaps Sly can work his magic and get former WWE wrestler Goldberg to fill the shoes of whoever that guy in the poster above is - they look exactly the same...I miss Estelle Getty - don't you?For when Stallone feels like "getting serious" again. I see this as a double-feature with the previously covered We Still Own the Night.Alternative spelling: Nitelight (you know, for kid | | By: Blog Cabins | | |
| | Imagining sequels that will never happen... | | 2008-01-16 08:58:00 | | It's a favorite pastime of mine to come up with sequel names for movies that will either never be made due to performance, critical response, or just because of their subject matter. A long time ago, Premiere magazine had a feature where they did this (minus the awesome MS Paint work done on the posters, as seen below). My favorite one they came up with was a sequel to the Nic Cage-Bridget Fonda movie where he plays a cop that gives a waitress a two million dollar tip. The first film was titled It Could Happen to You. The sequel? It Could Happen to You All Over Again. Anyway, here's some "possibilities" for some 2007 flicks:This critical bomb surely won't have a sequel, but the naming convention could go on forever...Or perhaps, We Own the Day, Too. Personally, I'd like to see We Own Dusk.A genre switch isn't out of the question with a title like that.In the first film, Nic Cage could see two minutes into the future (or something like that). I'm guessing he can see at least 7 minutes into the future in the sequel, thanks to the help of his wise mentor, Mr. Miyagi.First, they brought you Daddy Day Care. Then, they brought you Daddy Day Camp. Now, the best of both worlds have been combined!Who saw this? Seriously, raise your hand.Oh wait - they actually already made this one... | | By: Blog Cabins | | |
