Dredd with Karl Urban

The Matrix

District 9

Constantine. Keanu Reeves has said he would like to do it, and there is a ton of story material to draw from between the Constantine series and all of the Hellblazers, not to mention cameos in other series.

Edge of Tomorrow. Not a huge Tom Cruise fan, but that one really gets me. Emily Blunt is awesome in it. Went in not expecting much, but I was blown away.

Watched it last year and immediately searched to see if there was sequel in the pipe. Development hell.

The Fifth Element

I'm glad it didn't get a sequel because it is such a good stand alone movie. I'm just shocked the studio didn't try to milk it for everything it had.

Still waiting on Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

It was good. It was written by Douglas Adams. He also wrote screenplays for the next 2 books to be made into movies.

And despite it making a couple million more than it cost, the first one was considered a flop. :(

I’m not necessarily surprised this one didn’t get a sequel, but I really wish it had!

Event Horizon (1997)

Master and Commander. It's atmospheric and fun, and I'm sad they didn't make more with that cast.

District 9.

Alita: Battle Angel. I've heard there is a sequel planned, but it's been a few years since the first movie. James Cameron is still involved as a producer, but I guess his blue-skinned money machine has kept him busy lately.

Still waiting for the Zootopia sequel. Genuinely good and creative movie that used the format to talk about tricky topics with some cushion and then became a cult favorite. They added some extra stuff under Zootopia+, they tee'd up the buddy cop format, did all this world building and then... what, Disney, this is the one IP you're not going to squeeze for all its worth? Where's the next one?

Pacific Rim, such a great fun mechs vs monsters movie that had a gritty feeling to it. Not over the top fantastical bullshit with flips or garish colors, just solid, slow, huge mechs fighting solid, slowish, sea monsters.

Master and commander... They had the ship built already too - why not make a sequel? There's about 20 books worth of material.

Adventures of Tintin. Peter Jackson was supposed to direct it, but unfortunately he got busy with Hobbit.

Apparently they were supposed to adapt Prisoners of the Sun, which is arguably the best Tintin storyline to make a movie of.

John Carter of Mars

The Nice Guys

The A-Team with Liam Neeson and Bradley Cooper. Such a fun movie.

Man of Steel. It was a shot in the arm for DC movies, and the Superman character in film. Why they didnt follow up with a direct sequel, and instead released that dumpster fire Batman v Superman instead, I will never understand.

Princess Bride

I always thought a sequel where the roles are reversed and Fred Savage is reading to an ailing Peter Faulk would have been a great way to start a sequel.

TRON: Legacy

Should have made the sequel before Daft Punk retired

The girl with the dragon tattoo. (American version)

Jumper

The Rock. It would have been very easy to set up another terrorist attack that is tied to Mason’s spy past. Goodspeed is the only one who knows Mason is alive and where to find him. Would have been an easy hit.

Kung Pow. The first one even had a trailer during the credits.

Serenity

😭☠️

Van Helsing. I liked it at the time.

The Last Jedi

A few years ago I would have said Unbreakable.

remo williams was a decent, entertaining movie that flopped in theaters. a tv pilot was also produced, and but didn't lead to a series order.

based on the popular the destroyer series of novels (of which there is now over 150 published), it had huge potential.

not all that 'surprising' given its lackluster performance at the box office, more a 'disappointment'.. although hollywood has made far worse.

V for Vendetta
