Rouge River With the cutting edge digital techniques now available to filmmakers, a wholly digital John Wayne has been created for this Red River sequal. Ahmed Best is brought in to do the voice. :D
It's a Wonderful Life 2: Who Shot George Bailey? Some dipshit producer in Hollywood liked the idea of the 'Killing Spree' ending to the original that they came up with on The Simpsons. And then filmed it in its own sequel. Jon Lovitz plays Geogre Bailey. To make his shooting more believable.
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Deleted Scenes Bitterly angry at New Line for failing to provide the deleted scenes on the DVD, Twin Peaks fans unite and construct the original Twin Peaks sets from scratch, and act out the said scenes, creating a whole new film.
An American Werewolf in the domestic state of Delaware Some descendent of the original werewolf bunch mysteriously contracts the disease. And after a magnificent transformation sequence, rampages around Delaware, in totally uncinematic fashion.
Yellow Streak Martin Lawrence loses a diamond down the crack of Big Momma's ass. Osmosis Jones style comedy combination of animation and live action. Lawrence plays every character.
Dude, where's my copy of Variety? The inept duo enter the industry and get hired as WB studio executives. On their way up the corporate ladder, they spend a period in the DVD department. :D Actaully this one doesn't sound so bad. ;)

Battleship Pokemon
- The ghost of Sergei Eisenstein creates this tale of horror where he subjects present-day Russia to "montages" of scenes from the Pokemon cartoon.
The Goonies II
- Mikey must go on a journey to rescue six friends and a mermaid and.....oh wait, that was a video game. A lot of fun though, but it would've made a terrible movie.

That wouldn't be a sequel, it would be a documentary. :angry:

Battlefield Earth 2 - I hope the rumors of a sequel are just that, rumors...

Virtuosity 2 - anyone who's seen the crap-tastic original knows a sequel would be even worse than Battlefield Earth. But suppose they made this: a computer-generated serial killer develops exceptional musical abilities. He composes deathly ugly avant-garde "music" that kills audiences. But then a cop (played by Denzel Washington) seeks revenge after one of his fellow officers is slain at one of these "concerts"...

American Psycho 2: It Wasn't a Dream After All Patrick Bateman gets every more confused when his monstrous killing spree suddenly becomes real, and he gets 40 consecutive life-sentences. The satiric glimpses of 80s maximum security prison life include Bateman's arguments with the cons working in the laundry who can't get the semen stains out of his Cerruti bed sheets, and the giddly thrill of 'shivving' a prisoner in the yard because he's got a better criminal card!
Planet of the Apes 2001 2: Return to the Bullshit Planet In the opening scenes its revealed that Wahlberg hadn't even left the monkey planet at the end of the first, and his visions of a Simian Earth had been a result of a bad acid flashback. The rest of the film looks at his attempts to integrate himself into the ape population. Contains simian-human sex.
Legally Blonde 2: Bad Hair Day Elle Woods is disbarred after being prosecuted for attempting to bribe a supreme court justice. She becomes an actress, and joins the cast of Ally McBeal. :eek: :D
Evil Dead 4: Pricecheck Isle 5 After ridding the entire world past and present of the Deadites, Ash concentrates on his career. The climax of the film features Ash being made assistant manager of S-Mart. "Shop smart."
Zombie Flesh Eaters: The TV Cut So different is this network television version of Luci's zombie flick, that its considered by all to be a sequal. Contains the horrific sights of a zombie grabbing a human's arm!!! :eek:, the sound of gunshots, and plenty of totally-clad human flesh. :D
Money Train 2 You don't need to think up a silly plotline to see that this would be a bad idea. :D

A PRE/PRO WHEN? - A sequel to Apocalypse Now where Capt. Willard waits impatiently in the jungles of suburban America waiting for the latest audio offering from Outlaw.

I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID 2 OR 3 SUMMERS AGO - Jennifer Love Hewitt in a tank top-again.Probably worth a look.

THE NEXT TO LAST MAN STANDING - Bruce Willis kills 165 bad guys-the only problem is there are 166 bad guys.

CARROT TOP'S WAY - Al Pacino in an orange wig telling bad jokes and making annoying TV commercials.

Forrest Gump 2: How can the Same Shit Happen to the same Guy Twice So mundane has his life become, Forrest (with his son played by Haley Joel Osment) heads out to re-create the events of his own forgotten past. Laugh as they try to break into the white house to meet the president, cry as Forrest tries to start another Vietnam war...

Gasp as two Bruckheimer/Bay movies colide!
Bored of the Rings Peter Jackson realises he's wasted his time and decides not to release the final two parts in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Join him, talking in front of a tree for six hours to find out why he handed the project over to McG to reshoot.

The 7th Sense - Cole realizes that he can talk to animals.

Born on the 5th of July - Ron Kovich's son is a patriot, and fights in the Korean War, with the same results as his father.

Breakable - This film follows a parallel David Dunn's early days as well as Mr. Glass. Dunn gets into numerous accidents, and fights, leaving them without a scratch on him. He never realizes this. Mr. Glass breaks his bones during a boxing match and feels sorry for himself.

The Groundhog Day Show - Sequel to The Truman Show, and Groundhog Day, where Bill Murray realizes that he didn't actually live Groundhog Day over and over. He's told that his experience was just a TV show.

:laugh:
If adding Electric Boogaloo or The Wrath of Khan is good enough to believably convert any title to a sequal, why not try on
Operation Miami Beach
for size! :D

The Blair Witch (A.K.A. The Blair Witch Project 3): Follow the exploits of a pioneering town as they cast-out a witch. Listen to the directors commentary on how half of the effects shots were cut by the studio, thus the remaining effects shots only confuse the audience and derail the story.
The Omen 4: Appocalypse: Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston-Pitt, having both sold their souls to the devil for fame, concieve of the antichrist. A blackhearted foul demon, that happens to be so good looking, It causes peoples eyes to melt. The creature takes-over the conglomerate AOL-Time-Warner-Disney-Ford-General Electric-Martha Stewart-SONY-Daihatsu-Dell-RCA-Microsoft-Apple Inc.and tries to rule the world.
But the reincarnation of Jesus (Played by Michael Clark Duncan) thwarts his plan as a DJ on a satellite-radio station.
Ghost Face vs. Snake Plisskin vs. The Undertaker (From Final Destination 1 & 2): Follows the same plot as Freddy vs. Jason, except that the characters have unlimited incarnations (Ghost Face from Scream), know everything and avoid death (The undertaker), and can shoot anything between the eyes from 500 yards with a scoped-pistol (Snake).

I just realised something, the studios could just switch the titles from Harry Potter and James Bond Films (Both being randomly jumbled-together words), and nobody would be the wiser:
Harry Potter: Tomorrow Never Dies
James Bond 007: Prisoner of Azkaban
Harry Potter: Diamonda are Forever
James Bond 007: Goblet of Fire
See, they work perfectly.

Terminator Reloaded
John Connor comes to realize his purpose as The One to save humankind from total annihilation. He now faces his biggest adversary who wants to end his existence. The T-SMITH. Through liquid metal DNA infecting, he can clone himself into anyone and anything. Arnie is sent to protect John. John dreams that the Terminator is an outdated model so he is overpowered and destroyed within the first 15 minutes of the movie. John now fully understands 'there is no fate but what we make for ourselves' and is now able to "dodge bullets" and break the laws of gravity. movie ends with a cliffhanger... has to make a choice: the terminator or humanity. whoa!
