...it still happens. It makes me feel a little dirty just thinking about it.

Jesus wept, please say they didn't change the ending

Yes indeed!! Good call.

I'm sure I read somewhere that a follow up of some description was planned - or, have I mixed that up with a book?

The Matrix.

[Mr. Potato Head]

Alien

Youre right on both accounts.
The film was from a series of books, so naturally they planned on making more films. But i dont think the first one was very profitable. Shame really, as it was such a good film!

Leon, would have loved to see how she turned out.

Yes. So much that I made a poster for it over on the Something Awful forums

[garrykiller]

Saw...

[TimJMS]

Italian Job 2 : Flight From the Mafia and Expropriation of the Loot.

Title could be toned down to suit other markets

[Riley Blue]

ET - The Revenge

The Matrix should have had a sequel as should the first three Star Wars films; charting how Anakin becomes Darth Vader would have been excellent.

I also think Aliens should have a sequel. Pity they stopped the franchise there.

District 9 and Cloverfield for me please Hollywood (if you're taking orders).

I disagree, I like the way it ends and it feels like a proper ending that needs no sequels.

Besides, it's granero.

"¡Basta de decir eso, Withnail! ¡Claro que es el puto granero!"

First time I ever managed to stay awake during that film was whilst watching it in Spanish.

Some films should never have a sequel, well some films should even have a first viewing...

That aside, what films do you think they could have made a great sequel too but didn't.


I'd love to have seen a sequel to this, something a bit more sci-fi showing what would have happened as the 'next step'

Wow, this is the first movie that came to mind and in all honesty Contact was a movie which has stayed with me since I first saw it, and I always wanted more. I await impatiently the day a sequel comes out. But knowing the crap today they make it would probably suck.

I was kidding - I totally agree. A sequel would be sacrilege. Apologies for my Spanish - it's not my forte. Google translate suggested several alternatives for farmer. What's the difference between an agricultor, granero and campesino out of interest?

agricultor = agronomist / agriculturist (if such a word exists in English) Posh way of saying farmer basically.
granero = farmer
campesino = peasant / farm hand
