As title says.

A prequel to LOTR - The Hobbit
American Pyscho 2 - And not that stupid lass, I want more Patrick Bateman.
Star Wars - Who wouldnt like to see another film.
300 - A war showing the rest of the spartins fighting, could possibly call 3000.
 
Oh god, no more Star Wars. Please, no. And more American Psycho?! Noooo! It's based on a novel; I think the author would have a fit if they tried to do that. They made a The Hobbit movie once (I think it was animated?), but yeah, they should do a high quality productions one! That would be nice to see.

...I'd like to see another Ghostbusters. But maybe that's just me >_>; And more Batman movies by Christopher Nolan.
 
A sequel to Space Balls parody
A sequel to Robin Hood Men in Tights parody
A prequel to Resident Evil series....man someone who didn't play the game would be quite confused.
 
I assumed that they would make a hobbit movie...maybe they couldn't get Ian Kellen to sign on as Gandalf...

I'd like to see -

A Hobbit Movie
A new Xmen 3 so i could pretend the old one never existed
A prequel star wars film, maybe exploring Obi-wan and Qui-gon.
Pirates of the Caribbean, Prequel or Sequel.
 
How bout another Matrix movie? I mean they should have jsut stopped after the first one but hey, can't turn back so you might as well keep crankin'em out.
 
another Matrix would be great, so we could find out exactly where the hell Neo went. The machines took his body... but where?

Umm...a Dodgeball sequel! lol
that would be great. like White has finally gotten back in shape, and now challenges the Average Joes to yet another Dodgeball tournament

Another Full Metal Alchemist or InuYasha movie would be great too.
 
I would definitly like to see another Matrix movie, or even another Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

I thought they had already planned to make "The Hobbit" though they could have and then just sratched the idea

I think you'll be eternally out of luck with a Men in Tights sequel, but you might be in luck (sort of) in the Spaceballs department. They're currently making a Spaceballs animated series with Mel Brooks writing (the pilot, at least). Also, I can't imagine having him involved and him not doing voices for Yogurt and Skroob.

But, from the stuff brought up, let's see...oh, and get comfy.

Pirates 4: definitely. At World's End got pretty messy, but the lead-in for number 4 was pretty nice. Also, it would give them a chance to actually do something with Calypso, rather than leave her massive build up into the non-event letdown it was.

Star Wars: yeah, I'd want more, but not the 7-9 that the fanboys have been screaming about for 20 years. I agree with Lucas in that the Skywalker story is done. Go somewhere new, but with two stipulations--Lucas can plot the thing out and have final say, but leave the scriptwriting (dialogue in particular) and directing to someone else.

American Psycho 2: The actual American Psycho 2 did suck with the skill of a veteran porn star, but another one with Christian Bales isn't necessary.

300 2: No X 300. The first was amazing, and needs nothing added to it. Leave it alone.

Hobbit: Yeah, it has to happen. Even New Line is coming to its senses and is trying to negotiate with Peter Jackson again.

Matrix: Mmmm, this is another one I could go either way with. I can't say I've been hankering for anything new, but if it did come along, I would be interested, I think.

Ghostbusters 3: Dan Aykroyd has been hounding execs to do this for years, but the new team of Ghostbusters and the trip to Hell that the script has them doing just doesn't feel like the right direction. Maybe that's why it's sat on a shelf for over a decade.

Okay, and for stuff that hasn't been brought up:

Indiana Jones 5: I know
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
isn't even close to being finished, but they need to keep going with the franchise, and hire a new Indy (like they do with Bond, but with a less "flexible" vision of Indy, if you know what I mean).

Addams Family: continue the series with the same care (particularly in casting and direction) they did with the first two (not the craphack job they did with Reunion).

The Fifth Element: If it wasn't so complete as it was, I would say yes. But, no.

Lethal Weapon 5: Another one that'll never happen, mainly due to Mel Gibson's loftier pursuits (when he isn't in jail).

Willow: There's a lot that could be done with this. Elora Dannan grown up and so on, but whether there's an audience is kind of iffy.


Eh, that'll do for now.
 
Sequel to The Sound of Music. I know, I'm crazy. I just love that movie though. But unfortunately, Miss Andrews lost touch to her singing voice or something...

And Christopher Plumber is dead.

Still, it'd be great to see a prequel anyway. The kids should still be living.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Christopher Plummer is still very much alive, and has a new movie coming out next year. However, a lot of a actors of his ilk have died in recent years, i.e. James Coburn, and most recently, Jack Palance.

Oh wait, nevermind. You're right, he's still alive...old, but alive. I just now saw his picture. o.o ... Now why did I say "Christopher Plumber"...?

[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]2001 saw Julie Andrews and Christopher Plumber working together for the first time since "The Sound of Music", in a live broadcast of "On Golden Pond".

[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]From 3rd to 21st December 2002 Julie toured 15 cities in America and Canada as part of "A Royal Christmas" with Christopher Plummer, Charlotte Church and 150 dancers, singers and musicians, the show featured popular Christmas songs, carols and readings.

[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Must be a mispelling...

Anyway, another sequel I'd like to see is Memoirs of A Geisha. I don't know how they'd pull it off though, but it's a very good movie and deserves a lot.

The Matrix should have been left at just one. It's worth enduring it for the final fight between Neo and Smith though.
The Hobbit will come around eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later so that the majority of the same cast can be used, for those who appear in both novels.
Another 28 Days Later film would be good, to see what happened in France after the infection hit the continent. And Silent Hill 2 too. Not sure what happened to that...
 
Most of the selections are either being done to an extent (The Hobbit and the alleged Star Wars TV series) or are complete shit. I feel trying to make another Matrix or Indy 5 is just too much considering the last films for most of them either already suck or most likely will suck (I have very low expectations for Indy 4).

In a perfect World I'd like to see a few sequels for Serenity, Joss Whedon's greatest creation was killed off way too early and deserved much more than it did. Fricking better than the last SW films but that's another topic entirely.
