To be honest I've only seen it the once and as it didn't make that big a impression on me I dont recall all that much about it... all I remember was ... "it sucked!" and even Sandra Bullock is ashamed she did it, she said she should have trusted Keano's instincts and refused it .....pmsl

I think sequels are, usually, okay or good if they continue with the same characters and actors... and continue the charm that the original had.
But when they're made with other actors and half-hatched stupid plots, especially if the movie is made years after the original, they're not worth it and are just blatant grabs for money from the stupid public who actually see them.

The worst drop-off in quality from the original movie to the sequel has to be Caddyshack. What an awful sequel that was after the first one was such a classic.

What other movies do you think would make no sense at all to have a sequel? The Land Before Time!! They've made like 1,000 of these films already! Damn Disney... And who mentioned a Jurrasic Park 4?? You have got to be kidding me. There are way too many movies that did not get a sequel. The fifth Element comes to mind. I don't even care what someone else says, SOMEONE can come up with a storyline that will work. Period. Coming to America - again, never got a sequel, WHY? They could have easily done this back in the 80's! Alright, this topic has made me upset.

The Fifth Element would be an interesting movie to have a sequel, though I'm wondering what story could they come up with

Personally, I don't think they should give 'The Fifth Element' as sequel. It works too well as a standalone film in my opinion.

It was me.. They're in the process of Jurassic Park 4, I believe. It's hideous. Their shouldn't have been a third one.
The Lost World was awful, but at least it was, kind of, based on the novel.

The Lost world was flippin' awesome! Third one sucked...if Spielberg is in on the fourth one, I'm all for it.

I liked the third Jurassic Park better than The Lost World. Compared with the book, it was hideous. Only a few select "thriller" action scenes were similar.
I doubt Spielberg will be back.. but there's nothing listed on its IMDB page.

Out of all the Jurassic Park films, the only one I'll ever watch is the first. I've seen the others, boy are they bad.

The Lost World, to me, proved Spielberg as the special effects genius that he is. What a spectacle to look at. Plus the storyline was great as well. I don't know why Spielberg had Crichton write another book if they weren't going to follow it, but I don't really care either.
