The Human Torch Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Copycat thread! Pretty sure we've done this before, but I searched and Google didn't pull it up. Now my personal qualifier for this is I don't want any Predator 2 style sequels that out right replace our original hero. I'm talking about sequels to the films as is... Tron: Legacy style if needed (reintroduction, original characters important to plot but not the future focus). Wrath of Khan style (letting the characters age) if needed. The Rundown The Fifth Element The Golden Child Labyrinth And my number one sequel want is: Big Trouble In Little China The title is easy too... Bigger Trouble In Little China. Or more. More Trouble In Little China would work too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pong Messiah Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 God, I loved the Fifth Element universe. Would love to see it! BTiLC would be cool, too, but it's also a tough act to revisit. Very iconic in its way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wally Q Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 The Incredibles I think it's gonna happen but I wouldn't be surprised if it's still another 7-10 years away. It also depends on how Bird's live-action shift goes with M:I: Ghost Protocol and his dream project, 1906. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Torch Posted October 21, 2011 Author Share Posted October 21, 2011 BTiLC would be tough to do, but I think it could be really cool. I know Victor "Egg Shen" Wong has passed, but James "Lo Pan" Hong is still acting. The rest of the cast, though old, look decent enough too. 'Specially if the script is written to allow them to be older... like Khan. Dennis "Wang Chi" Dun is still acting too, mostly guest spots. I'd give Wang Chi the role Egg Shen occupied in the original... the mystic. For Labyrinth my idea would be to have Sara grown and with kids, the Goblin King kidnaps her kid and then Sara and her now adult brother Toby go into the magical realm to rescue the kid. I still want muppets and stuff, Henson works all over, but I'd expand the realm more... travel to additional places. A magical, muppet land of the lost like feel. Wally! A sequel to the Incredibles would rock! So want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowDog Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 After Lucas dies, I wouldn't mind seeing a Star Wars trilogy set after the first six movies, but only if it ignores all that EU crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Human Torch Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 I love the suggestions of: Galaxy QuestThe Rocketeer And even The Golden Compass. I didn't think Craig and Kidman's film was so horrible. Granted I'm not into the books, but I'd watch a sequel to that film. BTW, speaking of fantasy films that bombed but I liked... anyone else see Stardust? I thought that was swell. I'd watch another story set in that universe.

ShadowDog Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Is that the movie based on the Neil Gaiman book? That was awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerina Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Stardust is amazing. I think it's been way underrated and not given the proper props. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Torch Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 Yeah Stardust was created by Gaiman and yep it is great. Cool to see it wasn't just me that thought so. Many of the peeples in my IRL circle have no clue about it, show no interest or brushed it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumberSix Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hey, wow, surprise Stardust fan club. Awesome. Yeah, more of that, definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Maker Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Some great suggestions! Count me in for a BTiLC sequel. And even though Escape From LA wasn't that great, I'd also be down for more adventures with Snake Plisskin. Also onboard with a few other suggestions, namely Unbreakable, Galaxy Quest, Stardust, and The Rocketeer. Add to the list: Willow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerina Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 The brothers were named Primus, Secundus, Tertius, Quartus, Quintus, Sextus and Septimus!! With their ONE sister named UNA! You just know it's going to be awesome based on that alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justus Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 The Golden Child Oh, God!!! WHY??? That has to be the worst of Murphy's films....and that's saying something... And my number one sequel want is: Big Trouble In Little China The title is easy too... Bigger Trouble In Little China. Or more. More Trouble In Little China would work too. When it would be set, and would Russel's character be involved at all? I ask because that monster was hitching a ride on his truck at the film's conclusion--pretty much suggesting he (Russel's character) was close to being killed...

The Human Torch Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 The Golden Child was rad. Up yours. With all due respect. Seriously though, I liked TGC. As for my idea for Bigger Trouble, it'd be set now with everyone being 20 odd years older. And I don't think there is a need to address the beasty on Jack's truck with a scene. Jack could brag about offing it when the characters meet up again, simple and clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NumberSix Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I've never even heard of The Golden Child. One of Eddie Murphy's numerous '90s flops. The TV ads gave me the impression of Black Indiana Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Whoa there... Not true. It was from 1986, height of both his career and the days of Hollywood loving high-concept genre films. It also wasn't a flop. It raked in $125 mil after only a $25 mil budget. It was kind of like a blacksploitation version of Big Trouble in Little China (with both Egg Shan and Lopan in the movie as well). Golden Child was awesome. i said ah ah ahh ahhhh ahhah wannnt the knife!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPLmYcQaVVE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
