Sequel City – Back to the Future Part II
Posted on January 18, 2011 | 2 CommentsIt’s 2011…somehow…and that means you may have missed the 25th anniversary celebration of the original Back to the Future. Well, you didn’t miss it if you happened to be flipping through cable channels during the holidays—I saw it listed for no less than three Back... -
Sequel City — Tron: Legacy
Posted on December 20, 2010 | 3 CommentsI know I promised a treasured holiday sequel for this holiday edition of Sequel City, but I couldn’t resist covering the new Tron movie fresh off its opening weekend. I loved the original Tron to death…well, actually, I loved the arcade game that it spawned. ... -
Sequel City – The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear
Posted on December 14, 2010 | 2 CommentsActor Leslie Nielsen passed away a couple weeks ago at age 84. He’s best remembered for his roles in classic comedies Airplane! and The Naked Gun, and he acted for decades before that as a dramatic actor on television. And he always seemed like a... -
Sequel City – The Man With the Golden Gun
Posted on November 24, 2010 | 2 CommentsIt’s Thanksgiving time again here in America, and that means a lot of things—family gatherings, turkey, even more football than usual, complaining about how soon stores are blasting Christmas at us this year, etc. For me, and a group of not-so-select people, it’s also when... -
Sequel City – 5 Sequels That Never Were
Posted on November 1, 2010 | 8 CommentsIn an effort to shake things up here at Sequel City, I’m going to give a list of 5 sequels that we never got, but should have. Creating this list wasn’t as easy as I thought—most movies that had even the slimmest chance of being... -
Sequel City – Caddyshack II
Posted on October 12, 2010 | 5 CommentsI have very conflicted feelings about Caddyshack II. On one hand, I think it is a crime against humanity. An atrocity. Once of the best comedies ever was sold out by some of the same people who created it—Harold Ramis and Chevy Chase chief among... -
Sequel City – Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
Posted on September 30, 2010 | 5 CommentsIn a first for Sequel City—which is no great feat, seeing as this is only the fourth column—I will be presenting a sequel that just came out in theaters. Cue fanfare! Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps has some impressive sequel hurdles to clear before it... -
Sequel City – Batman Forever
Posted on August 31, 2010 | 12 CommentsA Batman film that I don’t hear talked about anymore is 1995’s Batman Forever. I think that’s a shame: it’s a fun movie, and a sequel which doesn’t deserve to be forgotten. -
Sequel City – Police Academy 3 – Back in Training
Posted on August 15, 2010 | 5 CommentsSequels don’t automatically suck just because they have numbers in their titles. We’re hardwired to think that they do…the same way we’re conditioned to flock to them opening weekend. In this column, I’m going to examine this strange love/hate, passive-aggressive phenomenon, one movie at a... -
Crossing the Streams: Ghostbusters III
Posted on May 5, 2010 | 8 CommentsIt is with much trepidation and a heavy heart I've come to the conclusion this Part the Third, shouldn't be.
