WTF Film Sequels

Bill and Ted's journey returns 



So its been 20 years since Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey was released, which was the sequel to Bill and Teds Excellent adventure. Recently Keanu Reeves, who starred as Bill in the films, talked with MTV about a script being put together for the 3rd film.

I am pretty sure most people have seen at least the first one, if not then well you should, its kinda random but entertaining at the same time. Although I pretty much like both of the Bill and Ted films, its kind of a wtf sequel being a good 20 years since the last one was released, and I guess there both quite old now. So I'm thinking will they try to make them look 20 or will it be a couple of 40 year old's going on epic adventures to like to the DIY store. Although it may turn out as funny, i really don't see the need to make a 3rd one and let it be what it was, a classic 90's film.

American Pie - The Funeral


Who did not see this coming?  after the millions of American Pie spin off films, I guess they were thinking hey lets make another American Pie film to churn out more money from this franchise. I kind of enjoyed the first 2 American Pie films, but i wasn't sure why they needed to bring out American Pie the wedding, in my opinions they should have just stopped after 2 because with these types of films there's only so far you can go with the humour without it being the same thing over and over.
So this fourth one is going to called American Pie - The reunion and yes it will be going to have all the original cast members in it. I can see how it sounds like a cool concept that there getting together after almost a decade, but again I cant see it being as fresh and original as the first 2. Maybe they will make another one in 50 years time and call it American Pie - The Retirement home.

So what's next for sequels?

The film world today insists on bringing out anything and everything because i really think they are running out of original ideas, this also goes for remakes and prequels. So I was thinking what else would make a WTF sequel.


Speed 3 - Mobility Scooter control
Meet the animal Fockers
I couldn't give a f**k what you did last summer

Its bad enough that there still putting out terminator films without arnie and maybe they will still be pushing out Indiana Jones films when Harrison Ford is in his 90's, or maybe another aliens film where Ripley is an Alien? As well as them remaking old classics like the Karate Kid and now the crow. Where are the original films Hollywood?!

A film review coming on wed, so there is still time to suggest new or old films that you would like me to review, either comment on here or Twitter (spongeofthedead)
