Epic Movie
Goal! 2
Hannibal Rising
The Hills Have Eyes 2
Are we Done yet? (Sequel to Are we There Yet?)
Spider-Man 3
28 Weeks Later
Shrek the Third
Ocean's 13
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Hostel: Part 2
Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Evan Almighty
Live Free or Die Hard
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The Bourne Ultimatum
Rush Hour 3
Halloween
Resident Evil: Extinction
Saw IV
Alien vs. Predator: Survival of the Fittest
National Treasure: The Book of Secrets
Johnson Family Vacation 2
Mortal Kombat: Devestation

"Are We Done Yet?" Come on, Cube, we want Last Friday!

Valigarmander ASS · 01-21-2007, 06:26 PM

Sin City 2? Hooray!

Oh, wait, it's a sequel. It'll probably suck.

What I'll probably see.

Shine Dude · 01-21-2007, 08:42 PM

I heard Saw is supposed to have Johnny Knoxville in it. That's the only one on that list besides Spiderman 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean I know I'm going to see.

It's less a sequel than adapting more of the graphic novels (most notably "A Dame to Kill For"), though Frank Miller did write some original stories for it.

I doubt it will even be called "Sin City 2" (I think "Return to Sin City" has a better ring to it)

Quick thoughts on the films:
Epic Movie - Skip it
Goal! 2 - There was a Goal! 1?
Hannibal Rising - Could be worse.
The Hills Have Eyes 2 - At least the trailers interesting
Are we Done yet? - About home improvements.
Spider-Man 3 - Definitely
28 Weeks Later - Possibly
Shrek the Third - Will See
Ocean's 13 - Hope it's closer to the first
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End - Hope it has an ending
Hostel: Part 2 - eh.
Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer - Look alright.
Evan Almighty - Probably will be the most successful Jim Carrey-less sequel thanks to Steve Carrel
Live Free or Die Hard - Need to see the other three first
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - Definitely will see
The Bourne Ultimatum - Need to see the second one first
Rush Hour 3 - Probably
Halloween - Mixed thoughts
Resident Evil: Extinction - No thanks
Saw IV - What's the point Spoiler Below

Jigsaw's dead

Alien vs. Predator: Survival of the Fittest - Depends
National Treasure: The Book of Secrets - First one was actually not bad
Johnson Family Vacation 2 - What was the first one about?
Mortal Kombat: Devestation - They're still planning this?
The Punisher 2 - Never saw the first one
The Ring 3 - Depends
Sin City 2 - Most definitely will see
Spawn 2 - They are still planning this?
White Noise: The Light - Never saw the first one.

Valigarmander ASS · 01-21-2007, 11:05 PM

White Noise? That one sucked. I can't believe they'd make a sequel. And another Ring? And another Saw? And another Hostel? Too many horror movies get turned into crappy sequels.

***CaptHayfever*** · 01-21-2007, 11:15 PM

Wait, Epic Movie is a sequel? I thought it was just a spoof.

Of course, we don't get any details about the original stuff too far before it comes out. Can you imagine that sell, especially considering how incompetent Hollywood marketing is? "Well, we've got this great flick coming out in November called Awesome Name; I know you've never heard of it, but that's because it's completely original. How would I describe it? Um, well, it's really good. I can't give away much of the plot because then no one will actually pay to see it, but it's really great. We can probably start giving you hints of it around July and actual details in September, but this is still January, so telling you anything like that now would make us even bigger idiots than that Hayfever kid says we are."

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Koga · 01-22-2007, 11:50 AM

Good point, although there are some other movies (almost) everyone will recognise like The Simpsons movie and Transformers.

I'm going to see:

Spider-Man 3
Shrek the Third
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Sin City 2
The Bourne Ultimatum

I may see:

Ocean's 13
Live Free or Die Hard
Rush Hour 3
The Ring 3

t3hDarkness · 01-22-2007, 11:55 AM

Wait, you mean to tell me these are all real?
Whoa

Irby · 01-22-2007, 04:34 PM

Im going to see:
Spider Man 3 and H9.

Chunky Kong12345 · 01-22-2007, 08:26 PM

Halloween is a remake, not 9.

Col. Les Claypool · 01-22-2007, 08:31 PM

I didn't know if it was remake or sequel. According to the Detroit News, it's a sequel, so I went with that.

Yeah, they were all talked about at some point. But, I highly doubt EVERY SINGLE ONE will come out this year, if at all

Rob Zombie said it's not a remake. And he is the director.

**Sean P Kelly** · 01-23-2007, 06:43 PM

^ Technically it's a remake, but it will also add backstory that will make it more a prequel

LinkManDX... FACE · 01-23-2007, 08:13 PM

I just hope the new Pirates actually has an ending.

I know that MK and Spawn have both been in development hell for a few years now.
