10 Movies That Deserve Prequels

5. Ocean€™s Eleven

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHAXUhCVF1k Everyone loved Ocean€™s Eleven. Maybe not it€™s two sequels, but the first film was definitely a winner. The character€™s were so talented and so sneaky that it made all of us want to be a participant in the ultimate heist. George Clooney made a wonderful ring leader with a very sexy, very hungry Brad Pitt as his right hand man. We were enchanted from the start and, by the end, we were cheering for them, even though they had committed the crime of the century. The Prequel: Danny Ocean€™s failed marriage to Tess? That had to have started happy. All of the little jobs that Ocean commits really puts a strain on their marriage, which his jail time eventually ends. A prequel would expand the backstory between them and also give the other characters a chance to showcase their talents a bit better by giving each of them their own story. How awesome would it be for Ocean and Rusty Ryan to hear about all of their ftre accomplices? News stories, word on the streets, it would be great. Not to mention, a prequel could introduce new accomplices of Ocean that may not survive an ordeal with him or make the realization that the crime life is not a good or rewarding one, giving Ocean a chance to reconsider his own life path.
