This movie deserves a sequel


This movie has got to be the funniest movie ever and I would love to see Bette Midler as the obnoxious Barbara Stone in a sequel!! Who else agrees?

As much as loved this movie and I DID love this movie...a sequel would be pointless and senseless. The story was told in the first film and it is over. Leave it alone as the classic it is.

I have only found two exceptions to this rule: I thought SUPERMAN II was as good as the first one and I thought SHREK II was just as good as the first one, but other than that...

ijonesiii, "only two exceptions to the rule"?...I do agree that there are alot of films that have sequels and are just to monopolise, and usually end up to be crap but...those are the only 2 sequels you liked? May I suggest...

leathal weapon
star wars
die hard
harry potter
indiana jones
pirates of the caribbean


P.S. Ruthless People should NOT have a sequel

Terminator 2 was as good as or better than Terminator.

I agree, no sequel for Ruthless People -- it would stink.

It's been over twenty years now. Which means someone's thinking about doing a remake. You KNOW they are.

Nothing about a Michael Myers project is good, unless he actually dies during its making.

Comedy sequels, and basically all sequels in general, usually stink.

Look what they did to A Fish Named Wanda, for example.

The Hangover was funny, but The Hangover 2 was basically the same movie, different country. Horrible sequel. Only three movies were good as sequels. The Godfather 2,(Not 3 awful) the three original Star Wars and the three Raiders of the lost Ark movies. Rocky 2 was pretty good but then they ruined it after 3, 4, 5 etc...

reply

There’s a reason why they did’t make a sequel to Some Like It Hot or The War of the Roses: because the filmmakers knew it would be stupid.

reply

A sequel would ruin this.. Just let it be a standalone comedy
