What would be the most ridiculous movie to make a sequel of?
Along the lines of the other thread, what would be the most ridiculous movie to make a sequel of?... My #1 choice is The Whole Nine Yards... sure the 1st one was ok, but does it really need a sequel

They ARE making a sequel to THE WHOLE NINE YARDS.
My vote for a stupid sequel is for BEYOND THE POSIDEON ADVENTURE. What were they thinking? Or maybe KING KONG LIVES, the sequel to the 1976 remake.

What would movies like Chasing Amy/Clerks/Mallrats be considered since they carry over chararacters and locations.. Probably not a prequel/sequel and probably not a series.

Not really a prequel to Reservoir Dogs unless you think Chasing Amy is a sequel to Mallrats.

Not only would a sequel be ridiculous, it would be pretty much impossible.

Groundhog Day. The movie ends perfectly and fits so well in the time alloted, it needs no more time.
What About Bob? Same as above.
Sixth Sense. He's dead, Jim. We get it.
Moulin Rouge.
Thelma and Louise.
Ghost World.
Novocaine.
Office Space.

These are based on the ludicrosity (is that a word?) of continuing the story, not a judgment of the original films.
Boys Still Don't Cry
"Academy Award winner Hilary Swank returns in the continuation of the Brandon Teena story!"
You've Got More Mail
"Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan continue to email each other, but this time they're very much in love with each other and know it!"
Apollo 14
"This time, there's no worries!"
In my mind, the most ridiculous sequels are those that repeat a situation that would very likely be repeatable. Like Home Alone (they'd have that kid on a leash after the first time), Weekend at Bernies (they still have that corpse? I know it's immediately afterward, but still... sick!), or Speed (if it followed Keanu's character, maybe... but we're supposed to believe Sandra Bullock's character conveniently encounters terrorists on two separate occasions?)
