I only look forward to The Naked Gun but only if Leslie Nielsen is in the picture!

None of those sequels surprises me.

Come on now… Direct to DVD movies can be fun! Haven’t you guys ever seen “American Pie: Band Camp” or “The Naked Mile”??? Those were priceless works of art!!!

Well ok… If Eugene Levy wasn’t tied to those projects, they’d probably have been released on VHS, but they had to pay the guy, so DVD it was…

Seriously! Doesn’t Hollywood have better ways of making money, let alone movies? Are the North American public really that insane to have watched/bought (or think of it) ANY of these titles? It really is the apocalypse…

I loved Mean Girls (and I’m a boy)!

I….liked Mean Girls, but if Tina Fey has zero to do with it, I’ll skip it. It’s possible to get a whole new crop of Mean Girls, but if that’s what it is it isn’t anything more than a in name only rehash.

Naked Gun 4 1/4? I agree Doug. Without Leslie Neilsen even in a cameo it won’t be right. And it’s not like they’ll ask OJ Simpson back either.

Grease- Grease 3? Remake of Grease? The Greased Lightning Chronicles? Grease Prequel? Story of The Beauty School Dropout? ? ?

Bad News Bears – A HA. While the remake with Billy Bob wasn’t great, if one were to remake the sequels (like Breaking Training, Go To The Japan..) as direct to video fare I can “sort of” see it. Make them all G/PG for the young set and that’s fine.

Without A Paddle- the first one should have been right to DVD, but still, I think this is in name only.

*****

Now, if Paramount wanted to go to the DTV sequel route and asked me?? Here’s my top five:

1) Lemony Snickets’ A Series of Unfortunate Events 2 (aka “Lethal Verity Sky”)

2) Drop Zone 2 [if WB can get Wesley to do Art Of War II...why not Paramount...?]

3) D.A.R.Y.L. 2

4) Days Of Thunder 2

5) Aeon Flux 2

and maybe another Spongebob film to boot.

MEAN GIRLS!! oh I couldnt get through that with a straight face.

All of those movies don’t need sequels -direct to dvd or otherwise.

This is a tragic answer to Paramount Vantage dismemberment.
