I mean it's right n the title... Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins

The characters interact so well and the wordplay between Remo and Chiun are classic.



They could cast someone as Remo. What about Gerard Butler. Be a hard time finding someone to replace Joel Gray as Chiun though.

I also wouldn't mind Damon Wayans reprising Major Payne either.

"In Korea, door handles do not break." I remember laughing so hard at this scene when I was younger. Great movie!

Rocky

Just kidding...

I would really love a sequel to Se7en, where it turns out that Morgan Freeman was helping Kevin Spacey the whole time, than continues killing afterwards.

You all should be careful what you wish for.

Given the state of things in Hollywood, you may end up with something that completely erases the best memories of your childhood.

Like an SJW remake.

Imagine Remo Williams redone with the recent Ghostbusters treatment for example. I think part of my soul dies every time I am forced to consider what they did to poor GHostbusters.

Youre right, it would be recast with Jennifer Lawrence, and then it would be villified as Cultural Appropriation and then all proceeds would be funneled into prevention of Asian American oppression in america.

i liked the movie there are 180 or so destroyer books .
I read the first 135 or so after that the original writer died and they sucked .
I managed to download about 130 of them in epub format .
the movie was based on the first book written back in the 1970s

Dude I LOVED Remo Williams!

I will throw in Pontypool. That movie was one of the most original zombie movies I've seen. It was refreshing to see a new take on the concept of "zombies"

Can't embed but here's a trailer.

It is based off a book.

Pontypool

Also a sequel to John Dies at The End.

Which was also based off a book.

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai across the 8th Dimension.

Classic.
It even teased a sequel in the credits, but one never materialized.

Goonies!!! I never understood why they stopped at 1 movie. Similarly, Big Trouble in Little China. The closing scene for that gem left 10 year old me expecting a second movie. (Oh, and per the rumored remake with The Rock, bah! If they simply must remake it, at least pick the only current Hollywood actor who could possibly do justice to Jack Burton: Danny McBride.)
I also thought a Rocknrolla sequel was a sure thing, but it looks like it's never going to happen at this point.

You talking about Danny McBride made me think of Tropic Thunder. I would like a sequel to that one.

Goonies, yes.

Big Trouble in Little China? No. I'm saying that as a huge fan. Part of Jack Burton's antihero mystique is his ambiguity. It took me years to realize this, all the while hoping for a sequel.

captain Ron and dark skies for sure.

the problem is they would bastardize it and go out of their way to push some pc bs, instead of making an entertaining script.

i can see it now captain Rosy with an all female cast and white skies cause we wouldn't want to attribute dark with evil aliens.


lol
