Good suggestions already.  A sequel to The Talented Mr. Ripley.

One problem is a lot of things I would like to see a "squeal" of, should not have been made as they were in the first place.  I don't necessarily want a sequel - I want a reboot that is actually parallel to the source material.  Take WWZ - the movie was crap and I think about 10 seconds of it related to the book.

This right here...

I would want WWZ done as a big-budget series that follows the book exactly.  Each chapter gets one or more episodes.  

Each chapter also gets a different director that is particularly suited to the type of chapter being filmed....  John McTiernan directs the Chinese submarine chapter....  Michael Bay directs the Battle of Yonkers...  get some great Bollywood director to do the chapter where the Indian soldier tries to move against the fleeing crowds to blow up the passage...  same for some great Japanese directors to direct the two chapters that follow the Japanese characters...  etc.

Yup, pretty interesting back story to the making of the movie too, how they had to payoff and deal with the street gangs in NY during filming.

Interesting. Now can it be re-done but with hoplites?  I think it would have to be filmed in Europe where the people are skinner. No McD/BK diet.

Yep, but to many years has gone by for original cast.

+87 to Master and Commander.

I'd also like to see Denis Villeneuve make the entire Dune series, or at least the ones written by Frank Herbert himself.

I think I'd also enjoy a Star Wars sequel trilogy, maybe picking up a generation or so after RotJ and checking in with the New Republic and how it dealt with Imperial Remnants or something. I can't believe something like this hasn't happened yet.

Uhm... I don't know man.  Given the state of hollyweird these days, after Book and Wash are already dead.  I'm thinking a sequel is going to be VERY disappointing.

Firefly was a masterpiece.  I re-watch it probably every year or two.  I don't think I could stand to see how badly they'd mess it up with a sequel.

Concur. What Firefly needs are prequels. There are character origin stories that need to be told.

But after Joss Whedon said that he'd really have sided with the Alliance I think he'd screw it up bigly.

The Sopranos "Pine Barrens" episode.  "He killed sixteen Czechoslovakians. The guy was an interior decorator."  Never heard a peep about him after that.

How about a remake of "The Keep" and a sequel based on the rest of the related stories?https://images.adrise.tv/tvPrRnsVLdFe0XS_bZxmWuahBsU=/400x574/smart/img.adrise.tv/57a8a8ac-55b3-44d1-94b8-359aa8e701d2.png

I just watched that again a few weeks ago.  It’s an neat premise that really got hammered in production.  Would have been interesting to see what the long version would have been like.

Salt was on tonight.

That one was ripe for a sequel too.

Basically how they ended the movie... implying her job was just getting started.

Hell Michael Mann wrote a great book that's part prequel, part sequel to the movie.
