The first that comes to mind for me is The Breakfast Club and I hope it never does have a sequel or remake
The Princess Bride is another good one
Collateral. That movie was so ridiculously good.
A Clockwork Orange
Don’t really think anyone would dare touch it.
Blade Runner 2049
I really hope they make one, as I believe this sequel was better than the first one and hope that they will keep up the good work
Brazil. Considering how weird it is I don’t think it’s in any danger of being remade or getting a sequel.
Office Space
Silicon Valley is the sequel.
Judge Wrote one and it has been kicking around Hollywood for years.
They never made a sequel to Terminator 2 and, honestly, thank God. 👍
Master and Commander. Wonderful movie, but opened at the wrong time. Could have been a nice series of movies.
Anyone who tries to remake or sequel The Princess Bride will have a special place in hell reserved for them.
trolling
The Matrix.
What are you talking about? They never made them.
The Fifth Element. And I hope it stays tat way.
Coming this summer: Rob Schneider is the 6th Element!!
Nice try, Hollywood!
Star Wars sequel trilogy. Hollywood really needs to remake all of them. Interestingly, there are two viable options:
- Actually make them good this time. Hire the Andor team to get it right.
- Modernize them even further, so much so that the entire franchise finally dies for good. Make GPT write the script if you want to go all the way. Sink then billion dollars into this train wreck. When you run out of money, sell the starwars IP to Netflix or whatever.
The Big Lebowski
ahh that would be impossible to do, the bar is set so high
Dark City. And it needs neither.
- The Big Lebowski
- Pulp Fiction
- Napoleon Dynamite
- Tropic Thunder
- Super Bad
- Interstellar
- Forest Gump
- 2001 A Space Odyssey
Napoleon Dynamite
Check out Tapawingo, it’s not a sequel but it stars Jon Heder and has the same kinda mood: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14146836/
God I hope there is never an Interstellar sequel. It could only diminish the original.
I totally agree
The big Lebowski kind of has a sequel in The Jesus Rolls
It’s a popular theory that a lot of Tarantino movies take place in the same universe, and other of his movies are movies that exist in that universe, like Kill Bill may be the pilot that Mia Wallace starred in. I don’t believe any of that is outright confirmed, but again kind of a sequel if you buy into that theory.
There was a Napoleon dynamite cartoon series made at one point if you want to count that
Forest Gump was based on a book, and there was a sequel book made- Gump & Co, and I never read it myself but I’ve been told that the sequel book is actually more of a sequel to the movie than to the original book
You know a lot!
Event Horizon has a sequel in spirit: The Warhammer 40k universe. (Nevermind that 40k was first)
What would a Pan’s Labyrinth sequel even look like?
2001 A Soace Odyssey has a sequel
And it’s actually great! It just exists in the shadow of the original.
Oh, didn’t realize that. BTW I’m adding more movies as I think of them
The first thing that comes to mind is everything Studio Ghibli. They are mostly great films, and have no sequels or remakes yet and I hope it stays that way.
I’m sure there has to be live action examples but I can’t think of any right now.
Inception? I’m always surprised about it getting left alone as it should.
Anytime somebody starts eyeing the rights to it, they get incepted to leave it alone.
Nice one, yes
