5. Zombieland 2
Zombieland was a critical and commercial success in 2009, so why wait for a sequel? Because the writers are freaking busy. This probably doesn't belong on the list, but I just want to see it already! The script probably won't even be finished until 2011! Dangit!
4. G. I. Joe 2
Why a movie even got made in the first place is beyond me...oh yea because Transformers made so much money. Despite a strong start at the box office, GI Joe was a commercial and critical failure. So of course, we need a sequel. Here's the kicker, it's being written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. Who? The guys who brought you, Zombieland. CHEESE AND FREAKING CRACKERS! >:( So, in case you didn't get that, the reason Zombieland 2 is taking so long is that we all needed another GI Joe movie! DARN YOU CHANNING TATUM!
3. Yet another freaking Mummy movie.
Why? I liked the first mummy, it was a fun little movie, and I prefer it to the National Treasure movies by a lot. The second film, was pure and utter garbage that made Back to the Future 2 look original. The third movie however, looked like it had potential. Which was utterly wasted in a film that somehow managed to be worse than the second Mummy, and is on my list of top 5 worst films I've ever seen. Even though it disappointed in the US, overseas it performed extremely well, thanks China, we all wanted a Mummy 4, didn't we.
2. Goonies 2
okay, this post is spiraling out of control. Maybe I should have actually had 10 films lined up, now this is just movie sequels that never needed to happen...oh well, I never claimed to be consistent. Making a sequel to a film like Goonies, which has now been around nearly 25 years is just silly. Why make it? Well it doesn't matter, they apparently are...they wish. They've been trying for 25 years and are no-where, my guess is it'll never happen, thank goodness. Sometimes, movies just need to be alone. Here's looking at you George Lucas.
1. The Hobbit
Oh my freaking gosh, where do I begin? This has languished in development hell for...well since "Return of the King". After a falling out with New Line, it was clear Peter Jackson wouldn't be directing, and after years of rumors and struggle, finally Benicio Del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth) signed on. It looked like a sure thing, with a Holiday 2010 release date. And then, for whatever reason it never happened. And now we're back to square one. Coming soon websites have its earliest release date at 2012, but I'm a bit more realistic. The soonest we will see this movie is 2027. That's if we're lucky, and if anyone even cares anymore.
