I think The Matrix deserves to get a proper sequel. It shouldn't follow Neo since I hated how he went superman.

Jurassic Park were always good popcorn movies.

I'd love to see another Daredevil movie as quite liked the first one.

Game wise - Kung Fu Kaos and Sunset Riders

Game Wise - Portal, Its what makes games different again and I think there is a lot more to explore with the portal gun.
Movie Wise - Jumper, It needs to be made well and have a good script, director, and actors. Maybe a story about the british/scotish guy directed by Micheal Bay with a script by someone who isn't coming up with crap but has a full plan for how the story should be told.

Jason Bourne.

The movies were good, but apart from the amnesiac former blacks ops agent, and the titles of the movies, bore very little similarity to the books. Ludlum has some great novels out there that, while not "Bourne" books, would lend themselves to him being the main character nicely.

Also - more Jack Ryan.

They should just start those over. You could save the one with Alec Baldwin. But, as much as I love Harrison Ford, he was miscast as Jack Ryan.

They should also remake the entire sequence of James Bond novels ala' "Casino Royale" ... especially "On her majesty's Secret service" which had the potential of being the best bond film ever but was monumentally fuxed by the casting of George Lazenby.

An Unbreakable sequel would make me very happy.

I'd also like to see my Shenmue storyline actually brought to a conclusion. No way that is actually going to happen.

Jurrasic Park one was a good popcorn movie. Jurassic Park two had a prepubescent gymnast girl who saved them from a rapter attack with her skills on the high bar. After that moment the world should have been spared from any more Jurrasic Park.

Count me in the group that thinks the Matrix sequels were good. My only complaint is that we spent too much time in the third film with characters that weren't Neo, Morpheus, Trinity or Smith. I could have given a shit about anyone else, which made the big battle in Zion much less interesting. It would be difficult to pull off a sequel that took place after Neo sacrificed himself that wouldn't have this same problem on an even bigger scale.

Jurassic Park 4 is coming out sometime, however, dinosaurs with guns is all I'm going to say about that.

To me, I personally don't think that anything should ever have a sequel, because it almost always makes the "franchise" worse. There are exceptions, but not many in the world of movies. I want to see new characters in new situations, and boldly go nowhere to see them.

Hopefully with the next James Bond movie we actually get to see some gadgets.

I hope Pixar makes an Incredibles 2.

Never mind saving the day with gymnastics; the world should have never been subjected to a movie that made velociraptors large as fuck, as well as re-imagined their whole character.

Count me in the group that thinks the Matrix sequels were good.
I think "The Matrix" as a whole concept, encapsulating all the philosophy and everything is genius, but I found I couldn't enjoy the sequels as movies as much. I still very much like the idea/concept they build upon, and I think they actually bring up more interesting ideas than the first one, but the first one grabbed me much more purely as a movie.

He said DareDevil, not Ghost Rider.
Both movies were sins against humanity.

Anyway, I completely forgot about Hotel Dusk, and Metroid Prime Hunters, and BULLY... the best game evarz

Movie Wise - Jumper, It needs to be made well and have a good script, director, and actors. Maybe a story about the british/scotish guy

What you saw in the movie jumper was pretty much "Jumper: Griffin's Story (http://www.amazon.com/Jumper-Griffins-Story-Steven-Gould/dp/076531827X)" which to me was the book I liked least. David Rice in the first book is very very smart. It goes into detail with him stealing from the bank, working out what to do with the money, setting up a place to live, learning to jump, finding his long lost mother, getting jump sites and how he remembers them, dealing with issues with his mother and keeping the girl he loves. The second book is just as good.

Griffin to me is not as good as a character. But yes a good movie on this story line is needed cause what we got is what I have to clean off my shoes after walking my pugs.

Scratch a Jurassic Park sequel, I want to see Mortal Kombat with today's CG. And for The Matrix, I was thinking a couple prequels to Neo.

As I know, Kung Fu Hustle is already in production. I would like to see a sequel of God of Cookery.

For video games, Capcom, I want another Onimusha (but find Takeshi Kaneshiro back please); Metal Gear Series, though Kojima would like to stop the series.

I wouldn't mind it redone, going along better with the first (and maybe second) game stories...rather than rewriting it to good side vs. bad side.

i thought i heard somewhere that they were thinking of doing another mortal kombat. if they do, it should be R rated and not PG-13

Most of the movies listed have nearly been green lit for sequels. I'm excited about possible new Bourne movie. Matrix movies, I don't think I would enjoy a sequel much, but a prequel sounds interesting. With Spielberg involved in JP4, I'll probably catch it out. Another Firefly/Serenity movie would be awesome.

TV shows: I'd like to see more Justice League, Batman Beyond, those DC cartoons not the ones under different producers/writers/crew behind the originals.

Games: I think an Assassin's Creed sequel with some improvements would be cool. Still working on the first one. Duke Nukem Forever! which should be out 2012... I mean late 2008. Diablo 3 would be awesome.

I could probably keep going.
