While sequels were once quick cash-ins that were lucky to make half the money of the original theyre now a big part of the movie business.

The next year or so has a wide selection of upcoming sequels that nobody is excited about in the least. Most of them are soulless products that hope to turn a profit based on nostalgia or peoples hazy memories of the prior movie. Some are belated, some are surprising and all of them are unnecessary...
