I'm not saying it *should* be done - after all, we didn't really need to see Indiana Jones again in this decade, and the "Clone Wars" referred to in the Star Wars trilogy are much better than the prequels gave us... but I'd still see that sooner than I'd care to see "Triplets."Craig Byrnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02915982732984809425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-27590913971382334982012-04-03T18:35:47.815-07:002012-04-03T18:35:47.815-07:00i'm pretty sure the farrelly brothers always e...i'm pretty sure the farrelly brothers always envisioned dumb and dumber as a trilogy.nobodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16838721950041389600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-60746081260916291242012-04-03T18:19:20.825-07:002012-04-03T18:19:20.825-07:00Can we have Alien 4: Resurrecting the series after...Can we have Alien 4: Resurrecting the series after Alien: Resurrection?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-88934889644250328812012-04-03T14:28:55.642-07:002012-04-03T14:28:55.642-07:00Labyrinth 2 might be interesting... maybe Sarah ha...Labyrinth 2 might be interesting... maybe Sarah has a daughter?

I guess they fall into the studios' "it worked before, so it will work again" line of thought.<br /><br />The TRIPLETS idea sounds terrible. Part of the appeal of TWINS was the originality of the idea paired with the casting.<br /><br />I'd heard John Carpenter's been working on a sequel called BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE ITALY, which sounds pretty good.<br /><br />I wouldn't be surprised if somebody's developing a kind of BACK TO THE FUTURE 4, but this time it's Doc Brown's kids as the main characters, with Doc and Marty in supporting roles. I remember a Saturday morning cartoon based on this concept from the mid-90s.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-81559674271704469362012-04-03T06:45:41.061-07:002012-04-03T06:45:41.061-07:00Is it any different from the slew of horror movie ...Is it any different from the slew of horror movie sequels that eventually bring back one of the original survivors of the earlier ones? <br /><br />I would actually like to see a Ghostbusters 3.

He seems to have a very personal attachment to that film and that whole experience and that alone will probably keep him from corrupting it with an inferior follow-up.<br /><br />I don't have the attachment to Goonies that most of my peers do, but I feel like that'd fall under the "who wants to see the Ghostbusters old and fat?" category.
