Top 10 Movie Sequels that will never happen!

Self-explanatory.

10. Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters

After Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, despite its ridiculously long title, debuted to over $30 million domestically, 20th Century Fox declared a sequel to be on the way, adapting the next book, The Sea of Monsters. What have we heard of it since? Jack. Not that I care, as I have never and probably will never see the first movie. The reason for its apparent cancellation was the poor reception and the quick box office decline. That, or the fact that the title would be even LONGER. Who cares, moving on.

9. The Amber Spyglass (Sequel to The Golden Compass)

This may seem strange, since The Golden Compass sort of flopped here in the states. But overseas, the film scored massive numbers, and it looked like a sequel could happen. Despite this, WB has decided not to make a sequel, and I can't blame them. Oh well. Who cares, moving on.

8. Hoodwinked 2

Okay, I've had several blogs featuring this movie, but we're now over half-way through 2010, and a release date still hasn't been stated. Originally planned for release in January 2009, this movie has been well below the radar. It's been completed for quite a while now, but just can't seem to get released. Maybe the quality is so terrible that the Weinstein's are embarrassed to release it. That would be sad indeed. This is the only film on the list to have entered production.

7. A Series of Unfortunate Events Sequel

It's been six years since the first film, and sequel rumors continue. How the heck they will pull it off is anyone's guess, since the kids are older now. There's been talk of a stop-motion film, but that would just be weird. I would like to see a sequel though, since this is without a doubt my favorite series of Children's Books. However, realistically it will never happen.

6. Superman 6

2006's Superman Returns was a commercial and critical disappointment for WB. Why make a sequel? They supposedly made money, and Superman has had great success in his past. Originally, a film directed by Bryan Singer was scheduled for a 2009 release, titled "Superman: Man of Steel". This would have been ideal for me, as I actually liked Superman Returns (don't stone me). Of course it didn't happen and talks of a reboot have been floating around forever. Will it ever happen? Well, yes probably, but not in the foreseeable future.

5-1 coming soon.
