Friday 4: Most "Sequel-Worthy" Movies

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
What do you think, Matt,you ready to do Friday for okay?
Is that a yes? Yeah?I don't. I hate that. I
hate that when I do that mywife, I'm just like, so do
you want to go do thing X? And she's like I don't care or
sure? Well the okay was morelike what in the world, like just
say yes or no? I'm ready. I am prepared, all right,

(00:23):
So what are we doing today?Well, you know, the news broke
earlier this week that there's gonna bea happy Gilmore SEQL sequel, like almost
thirty years after the fact, almostthirty years after the fact they took their
sweet time. And when it's thatlong of a time, is it I
don't know possibility of it being good. I feel like decreases over time.

(00:47):
Oh yeah, how do you?How do you? How do you capitalize
this? I thought? I feltlike, you know, Adam Saylor didn't
do a whole lot of sequels.I mean, there could have been a
sequel to the water Boy, likehe gets drafted into the NFL and then
what happens? Right, you knowthat that's not something that I necessarily need
to see. I think it hasa great ending the way that it is
Billy Madison the college years. Yeah, I mean there's all sorts of different

(01:07):
things that you could have done rightback in Jill Part two. No,
no, no, no, nobodyneeded that one. No. But anyway,
So the idea for me is itwhen The Incredibles put out their version
their sequel, because I love TheIncredibles. It was a great movie,
but their sequel came out like almostfifteen years later, and at that point

(01:32):
I was in such a different partof my life that I kind of had
the nostalgia for the original. Andthen I went and saw the new one
and it just didn't have kind ofthe same vibe to me. Even though
it was well reviewed. I didn'thate it. I was just little disappointed
because I needed to be sixteen againto enjoy what I was like and felt
like when I watched that The artof the sequel, it's an art and

(01:56):
a science. Could you say there'ssome math involved there? You got to
get it just right, and alot of people haven't. Yeah, I
don't know, I don't know.I thought for for this week's Friday four,
I came up with the idea onthe news that there's going to be
a sequel to happy Gilmore. Whatis your Friday four? What's your mount
rushmore? Of movies that need asequel and we're trying to make them right

(02:21):
now? Yeah, or movies thatyou wish had a sequel that don't I
think. I think because because couldwe get like really old movies that there's
absolutely zero percent chance that there's evena way to do that. Oh yeah,
this is this is one of thoselike who would you take to dinner
alive or dead? This is thepracticalities out the window. What I mean
by this is that what are movieswhere you left the theater and thought,
boy, I hope they picked thatstory up and keep going, or watching

(02:45):
on TV and were just like,man, I could watch what happens next?
Yeah? Yeah, okay, arewe opening up to TV? Then?
No? Okay, okay, becausethat's a whole different conversation. No,
I just saying it's got to bea movie, all right, all
right, what do you got?No fast? So my four number one
is The Truman Show, and I'mnot gonna I'm gonna try to dodge and
weave around any spoilers for any ofthese movies. This has been out since

(03:07):
nineteen ninety eight, so it's beena while. All of mine have been
out long enough. But still,if anyone knows how The Truman Show ends,
I think it's a beautiful and perfectending. It doesn't need a sequel.
This is just one of those onthe list that I wish there was,
You wish there was. Yeah,I love that movie. It was
so good and the way it ends, you just you really want it to
keep going for obvious reasons. Anyonewho's seen it knows what I'm meaning.

(03:27):
All right, next, kind ofthe same for The Village. I love
the movie The Village. I thinkit's really good and the way it ends,
it ends in that classic m NightShyamalan sort of like whoa, I
didn't see that coming kind of way. I'm not spoiling anything because that's how
all of his movies are, Andbasically I think that it would be a
really cool sequel to that movie tofind out more about this village, to
find out more about everything else thatgoes on around them, and to explore

(03:51):
that concept now that the viewer knowscertain things they didn't know at the beginning
of that. So The Truman Villagenumber three, this is basically a documentary
at this point, Idiocracy gotta havea second one of this. Oh yeah,
make a twenty twenty four version ofIdiocracy and people people will enjoy that.
I would certainly enjoy it. Iwant to see Mike Judge's interpretation of

(04:14):
ideocracy updated to today's world, becausethat's one of those where you're like,
whoa, that's weird. They justmade you know, Beavis and butthead as
if they were you know, agingas they would you see that on Paramount.
I think it is. I haven'tseen it, but I've heard good
things. Yeah, I mean it'sold Beavis, an old butt head.
They're old. Now, Mike Judgeis still in his bag. Let's let's
get it going. Yeah, let'sdo it all right? And then number

(04:36):
four, number four is Castaway.Why I just want to see him get
like you know how Prison Break hada season two and they had to like
break out of another jail. Iwant I want that if you want him
to somehow like land on it.If Tom Hanks character and Castaway lands on
another deserted island, he is notmaking it off that island exactly, and

(04:59):
then it's a psychologic a thriller,as I want to know. I think
he's like seriously again and then hejust buries himself in sand and that's the
end. That's the end. Well, that's a short film. I'd take
it to the Cans Festival. Yeah, it's an art piece a film.
It in black and white, withno with no uh all right, no,
but really the Castaway, wouldn't thatbe hilarious if he's like later on

(05:19):
in his life and he thinks he'sin the clear, he finally gets on
an airplane again for the first time, and then he survives another plane crash,
ends up on a desert island again. I don't think I need to
watch another one of those. Andof course, and his wife leaves him.
I thought you were dead, allright? Anyway, Okay, so
your four are The Truman Show,The Village, Idiocracy, and Castaway.

(05:41):
Yeah, I'll give you my fourcoming up. But before we do that,
let's give away those pair of ticketsto the Big Ten Baseball Tournament.
Those are to every game of theBig Ten Baseball Tournament. And call in
right now. So you said,you know, we did twenty seven for
the nineteen twenty seven Yankees. Youknow what, it was another really good
baseball team. Forty seven Dodgers.That's Jackie Robinson's rookie year. Right,

(06:06):
Yeah, there you go, fortyseven, forty seventh call. You're gonna
win two tickets that will be toevery session of the Big Ten Baseball Tournament.
That's at Charles Schwab Field here inOmaha. Calling now at four oh
two, five five eight eleven tenfour oh two five five eight eleven ten
News Radio eleven ten kfab apropos ofthe fact that there's gonna be a new
Happy Gilmore. Happy Gilmore the secondlet me open my mountains ere there you

(06:29):
go. Alright, h I'm intothe flavor mountaintop think delightful anyway. Yeah,
the shooter McGavin, whatever, ShooterMcGavin. You gotta wonder a lot
of things about that movie. Isit gonna be older? Are they gonna
be around the same age? What? No, you know, I'm gonna
throw you. I'm gonna throw youwith the Happy Gilmore sequel should be Yeah,
Happy has a son who is theopposite of Happy. It's like,

(06:51):
that's my boy. Did you seethe Sanidlor movie. That's My Boy with
him being Andy Samdbrigg's dad. Ohyeah, and his drunk dad or whatever.
I think it's going to be agolf version of that. But Shooter
is also going to have a kid, and there's going to be some rivalry
that they have, but maybe it'llbe forced. I don't know. I
could see that. Yeah, it'sgot to be the kids. But anyway,

(07:15):
he's a you got to answer thephone. So what I thought was,
given the knowledge that there's going tobe a sequel, what would be
your four movies to put on yourmount rushmore of movies that need a sequel
that don't have one yet, thatmovie that you went to the theater that
you left it and you thought,surely they're going to pick this story up
where it left off, because thatwas way too good just to leave right

(07:36):
there. Okay, and you're fora word, just to remind the people.
My four were The Truman Show forobvious reasons for anyone who's seen it.
Okay, same story with the Village. I'm not going to spoil anything
here because he's a great movies,but for obvious reasons, I would love
for those stories to keep going.Idiocracy is another one that's one that i'd
like to see updated with a sequelbecause I want to see Yeah, he

(08:00):
just wanted twenty twenty four version.Basically, I want to see, with
all the given with all the newtechnology, with all the new nonsense that's
going on in our world today,what's Mike Judge's viewpoint on what the future
looks like? Now, Yeah,we got new Beavis and butt Head for
Mike Judge. Let's let's keep itrolling here, honestly, as much as
we can get out of Mike Judgewhile he's still with us, like just
you know, yeah green light,Yeah, all right, last one.

(08:22):
I want to see another Castaway justbecause I want Tom Hanks to have to.
I want to. I want TomHanks's character to step on an airplane
for the first time since the lasttime? Right is it? Is it
gonna be? Are we making thisa comedy or are you just like doing
the same type of drama? Darkcomedy is what it's going to be.
Tom Hanks has been has been totherapy. Every song that's brutal, he's

(08:46):
been to therapy for years, andhe's finally ready. He's finally ready to
step on an airplane again because thisis what's what's the name of the therapy
where they make you do the thingyou're scared of I don't know, he's
doing it, doing the thing.Didn't Mory do that? Yeah? Oh
yeah, chase people around with olives. Well he's like, okay, I'll
get on a plane. I'm terrifiedtoo, but I'll finally do it.
And then it crashes. He survives, and now he's stuck on an island

(09:07):
again. Again. It's like theGroundhog Day version of Castaway. But that's
where things get dark. It's notso fun anymore Tom Hanks. And then
we find all of his lifetime andthen we find then we find out at
the end that Tom Hanks just wentinto a darkness retreat like Aaron Rodgers and
just hallucinated the entire thing. WhoSo it's kind of like the end of

(09:28):
Roseanne, or like the end ofDallas or the end of The Lost or
you know, oh I love thatshow. Yeah, And they're like yeah,
yeah yeah, all right, allright, all right, good list,
here's my list ready. Number one. The Breakfast Club. Okay,
I know John Hughes was not asequel guy except for Home Alone, because
that thing just took off and wentcrazy. But the Breakfast Club what happens

(09:52):
at school on Monday? Okay,you have five people from completely different sectors
or clicks of this school. They'vehad this incredibly important moment in their life
where they recognize it's really not thatdifferent than each other. They get through
this detention while also like two liketwo of them start kissing each other and

(10:13):
the other two start kissing each other. They all have kind of a new
found respect for each other. Howdoes this end up going on Monday?
They lived like an entire school year'sworth of emotions in just one day.
On Monday, when they come backto school, what happens. Do they
talk to each other, do theyacknowledge each other? Do they stand up

(10:35):
for one another? I need tosee it. Yeah, we're not going
to see it, but you knowyou had to the five perfect people right
there. They cast the movie awesomely. But John Hughes like, nah,
nobody needs to know. Let themthink what they want to think, and
we could have, you know,Simple Minds or Tears for Fears or somebody

(10:58):
else in the mid eighties could havemade another awesome soundtrack. It's just a
missed opportunity. As all And said, he wanted to make like Saint Elmo's
Fire and all that other crap.Pretty in pink. Those are bad movies.
It's just like this was the bestone I needed to see. What
happened at school on Monday? Right? Number two? Napoleon Dynamite. Ah,

(11:18):
I what Napoleon Dynamite is really aplotless movie when you think about it.
If they would have made that intolike a Netflix show, if Netflix
would have been making shows back thenand it was like ten episode seasons,
I'm in what are we talking abouthere? Yeah? I could watch these

(11:39):
guys just live. I could.What is Kip and Lafonda up to?
I've wondered that a lot. Whatdid Napoleon ever really get to shoot his
shot with Summer or not? Whatdoes Napoleon do if he does decide to
go to college? Your mom goes, did Tina the Lama actually ever eat

(12:05):
any of the food? We don'tknow this. Did Uncle Rico try out
for the USFL We won't know.Oh that's a good one, right,
but anyway, that's that's again we'llnever get that. But Napoleon Dynamite.
I would have loved to have aNapoleon Dynamite too, or Napoleon Dynamite Return

(12:26):
of the Dork or whatever. Howdid things go with Pedro as pres I
mean we didn't really even see himget have an acceptance speech, right,
I mean, Napoleon basically wins itfor him by doing a dance, which,
by the way, that's how we'reelecting people. Canned Heat by Jamiroquai
in case anyone's curious, sweet song. Yeah, and Napoleon's got some slick
moves. I mean, in hindsight, the dance doesn't really hold up that

(12:46):
well, but it takes a lotof guts to do what he did.
And guess what happens, Pedro's elected. We're electing guys because their best friend
did a dance in front of everyone, in front of Hillary Duff's sister no
Less. Yeah, and she's prettyhot in the movie too. I wonder
what she's up to these days.Well, we'd find out if they made
a sequel. Yeah, Number threeDetective Pikachu. So it's a Pokemon movie

(13:11):
from a maybe a handful of yearsback, but it's the world of Pokemon,
which I don't know if you knowthis, but they're still making new
stuff for Pokemon all the time.Except this was so well animated. It
was so such a great story.And Ryan Reynolds is like in the movie
why don't we just see what happensnext? Ryan Reynolds is the kid's dad

(13:35):
and these Pikachu, and Pikachu ishis partner, and his son wants to
have a partner when he learns howto be a detective. Detective you could
you could do so much with detectivesby itself, let alone detectives with Pokemon.
Everybody's got their best friend Pokemon.It's a wonderful world. If you

(13:58):
haven't watched it, you're staying allwell, it's for the kids. No,
No, if you're a fan ofhaving your own dog or something like
that, just imagine that. Exceptthey're more bipedal most of the time,
and they're generally, you know,a little bit more anthropomorphic in the way
that they respond to you. Butthey're all really fun. I don't know.
Lastly, and this one irks memore than anything. It's a movie

(14:22):
called That Thing You Do. Haveyou seen That Thing You Do? I'm
not sure I have. That ThingYou Do was the first film written and
directed by Tom Hanks, So Itoo have a Tom Hanks movie on my
list. But That Thing You Doit's Tom Hanks. He wrote this movie
and it's about kind of like anineteen sixties teen idle boy band that's you

(14:43):
know twenty a few twenty year olds, and they have a song that actually
hit the pop charts in the ninetieswhen they came out with this movie called
That Thing You Do and the soundtrackis killer. Now what do I want?
If you've seen the movie, andspoiler alert, spoiler spoiler alert,
it doesn't go well for the bandat the end of this thing, they
have a massive hit song, butby the end of it, much like

(15:05):
all of the bands in the sixties, you know, things kind of hit
some rocky roads, if you will. I would have no problem following some
of these other guys and seeing whatis next for them, including Tom Hanks,
who is their manager in the movie, and seeing what they did next,
seeing if they could come back aroundand maybe have like a reunion several

(15:28):
years later, and how big thereunion might be. Put them in front
of different things that happened in trulyAmerican history in the sixties and into the
seventies. And I don't know,the music was so good. They made
a bunch of fake nineteen sixties songsthat sound awesome made thirty years after they
should have been, but it soundsawesome. Go find that soundtrack. So

(15:50):
my four long winded answer, Sorry, but I liked this one and I
spent a lot of time thinking aboutit. The Breakfast Club, Napoleon,
Dynamite, Detective Pikachu, and ThatThing You Do. Those are four movies
I wish had sequels that do nothave sequels. You can call us with
your thoughts on this at four twofive five, eight eleven ten Having Fun
on a Friday on news radio eleventen Kfab. We gave our lists and

(16:11):
we're taking yours. You can emailme Imrie at kfab dot com. Not
I promise that I will read yourson the air, but you can go
in and send a note. Also, you can call in four two five
five eight eleven ten. Four htwo five five eight eleven ten Like Eric,
did Eric, Welcome to the show. What are you thinking about on
this? Yeah? I love thistopic. My friends and I have had

(16:32):
this conversation countless times. It's hardto narrow it down. But just because
I love these movies so much,I would love to see a sequel to
the Italian Job with Mark Wahlberg.Phenomenal movie. Loved it, great adventure,
I just love those types of movies. Serenity is another one. There's
so much story there. The TVshow its fantastic, It ended too early.

(16:56):
Dread, which I think really wentunder the radar, one of the
best movies, comic book type movies, Mega City, so many ways they
could go with that. I wouldlove to see a sequel to that.
And the last one, Leon theProfessional. I want to see what happens
to the girl. I want asequel to see how she turns out.

(17:17):
Okay, wow, you have thoughtabout this, Eric, Dread is one
I definitely I don't remember watching.I remember hearing though people wondering if there
would be another one of those.But uh yeah, that Uh that's a
it's a good list. Appreciate youis calling in, Eric, thank you
for sharing that with us. Dred'sa good one. I don't know what
do you think they're Matt. Ilike this topic, but I also liked

(17:41):
the idea of maybe doing it atthe opposite sometime. Yeah, movies that
had a sequel that you wish didn't, because I definitely have some of those
too, So it's like, whydid you do this? Right? Yeah,
if you miss a sequel, thenthat's I mean, that's the conversation
with Happy Gilmour. If it's reallybad, then you're kind of like you
should have left alone. Yeah,I don't know. Maybe they can create

(18:03):
like a different world within his world. I don't know. That's a good
question. Maybe it's far enough removedthat it's like, eh, it's not
like can you don't need it forthe cannon of happy Gilmore. That's how
Dumb and Dumber err was for me. When they actually got Jim Carrey and
Jeff Daniels back together, it wasn'tgreat, but it was so far removed.
It's just cool to see him backtogether, right exactly. You can
call us with your movies you'd liketo see a sequel for if you call

(18:27):
in at four h two, fivefive, eight, eleven ten on news
Radio eleven ten kfab Matt Case ismy producer. Are you having fun?
I'm having so much fut Are youhaving so much fun? Yes, I'm
reading the sign you're holding up thatsays that I'm having so much fun.
Remember that SpongeBob episode where SpongeBob andPatrick are getting real excited to go out
on the town and Patrick comes intothe Krusty krab and He's like, Hey,

(18:48):
SpongeBob, are you ready to party? And then Patrick's like, I'm
ready to party? Are you readyto party? Yeah? It's good stuff.
So what we're doing right now is, uh, well, we'll have
we have a few things of otherstuff to talk about. A lot of
people emailing their favorite movies, whichis our Friday for favorite movies that don't

(19:15):
have a sequel that you wish hada sequel. If you want to call
in with your thoughts, you canat four O, two, five,
five, eight to eleven ten.Matt, what was the list? Your
list? My list? Number onewas The Truman Show. If anybody's seen
that movie, you'll understand why theway it ends, I want to see
what happens next. Number two wasThe Village for the same reason, the

(19:36):
way it ends. One of mNight Shyamalan's greats, The Village. I
want to see what happens because certainpeople in that movie know certain things now,
and I, as a viewer,know certain things now, and I
want to take that knowledge into thenext movie and see where the story goes.
You know what I'm saying. Numberthree idiocracy. This one needs to

(19:56):
be redone, and you don't imagineyou don't need a sequel to follow this,
You just need the same idea placedin the current day. Yeah,
so okay, that's a little bit. Yeah, Okay, I see what
you mean. Maybe it's technically asequel. It's not a follow up on
the world that Idiocracy was made ininitially it's a but it's still I would

(20:19):
call it a sequel, even thoughit probably doesn't need to at all relate
to the first one. It's justthe same idea applied to today, right.
A reimagining maybe is a better wayto put But I mean it would
still go in the book as asequel, And this fourth one is a
straight up classic sequel. Castaway.I just want to see Tom Hanks.

(20:41):
After years of swearing off plane travelbecause of what happened the first time,
he goes through years of therapy andfinally his therapist says, Tom, I
want you to get back on theplane, get back on the horse and
ride. You don't need to bescared of this plane the rest of your
life. And so he says,Okay, what's the chance of it happening
again? Right? Wrong the plane. The plane plummets mid air into the

(21:03):
ocean. He somehow survives floating onone of the wings for five hundred miles.
He's almost dead. He gets toa desert island, he realizes it's
happening again. No hope for asafe recovery, and he has to decide
there's a poisonous snail over there.Do I take the easy way out?

(21:29):
You know, here's my thing,And like I said, if we wanted
to go that route, you justhave to swerve him at the end that
he's not actually experiencing that it's justsomething that he's hallucinating, because come on,
man, you can't do this again. That would actually be a good
a good swerve ending. Look,he's in like he's in a darkness retreat
or he had a bad dream orsomething, or we could do a sequel,

(21:51):
except he's got to all of asudden use what knowledge he has to
try to find somebody close to himwho's gotten lost somewhere in the woods,
like his daughter goes into the PeaceCorps and then gets lost in her journey.
And he only has like a certainspecific set of clues, but based
on the knowledge that he still retainsfrom the time that he was stranded on

(22:11):
a deserted island, he was,you know, uses those tools to try
to find here, like Liam Neesonand Taken. Right, It's like it's
like a Tom Hanks version of Taken, except you know, with a bunch
of overlords and a bunch of foreignplaces. It's just him trying to find
her in the wilderness on an islandsomewhere. I like that that has legs.

(22:32):
However, as a movie exec I'malready sold on the idea of seeing
Tom Hanks and Tom Hanks only couldpull this off, getting re stranded on
another island, and just seeing hisreaction to that. He's gonna be like,
he's gonna look around. He's like, oh, come on, yeah
exactly while the song bad Day playsin the background. Because you had a
bet. Okay, you've lost me. Now. If you're gonna get anybody

(22:56):
other than Hans Zimmer to do thatmovie, you're out of your mind.
I would have been a good mom. Does Winston make make another? Now?
Wilson? You mean Wilson, Wilton. Wilson's gone, yeah, no,
No, it's a tire. It'sa Dunlop tire. Okay, there
you go. I don't know howa tire is landing on the you know,
I don't know how an intact tirewould would be there for Okay,

(23:18):
anyway, my list was the BreakfastClub, What happens the next day at
school? When they go to schoolon Monday, what happens? We got
Napoleon Dynamite, which I found tobe an incredibly charming movie, and I
really wish that we would have gottena follow up on what happens next?
Just what happens with Napoleon, whathappens to Kip in Lafonda, what happens

(23:41):
to deb and what happens to Pedroand how does his school presidency go?
I mean, this is the stuffI care about, ladies and gentlemen.
Detective Pikachu was a relatively new movie. There's a chance that they make another
Pokemon movie with the same kind ofproducers, the same graphics, the same
animation style, which was really awesome, and Ryan Reynolds was in it and
I just really like what he doesmost of the time. He added a

(24:03):
ton to the movie. So DetectivePika choose another one. And then That
Thing You Do, which is anotherTom Hanks film where he's a movie or
a music manager like a band managerfor this group of young upstart teens who
are trying to make it big andthey write an awesome song, and the

(24:25):
song takes them to a lot ofplaces. They become heart throbs. You
know. I don't know, justI think that music the Okay, So
the music of the soundtrack is allfake songs, not real songs. They
wrote it specifically for the movie,but the whole thing slaps. It's like
all nineteen sixty styled music because that'swhen the movie is set. And it's
just an incredible soundtrack. And thesong that Thing You Do actually became a

(24:48):
pop hit in the mid nineties whenthe movie came out, even though it
is a song that's supposed to soundlike a sixty song. It's just an
incredible They could have done something elseand try to maybe round them back together.
They all do their own little separatethings, and then we reunite with
them maybe in like the early seventiesor something after they recognize or realize that

(25:10):
they really were at their best witheach other. And that that I think
I would like anyway. We'll takeyour calls at now. At four,
two, five, five, eight, eleven to ten, Chris is on
the line. Chris, what doyou think about your list. Hi,
Emory, Hey, I'm thinking Historyof the World Part one with Melbrook.
Oh okay, History of the World'sa good one, all right, that's

(25:30):
other than that. Maybe Shawshank RedemptionNow, okay, that's a good one.
Now we're talking, right, theygot it, they got out of
they he escaped. He meets upwith the make that. Why hasn't that
happened? I don't know. Iwould really like to see what happened to

(25:51):
the mouse at the end. Well, you know what, you know,
we know what we really need Chrisis just Stephen King to write the sequel
and then somebody will make the movie. So it's really on him, all
right, Chris, appreciate your appreciateyour great weekend. Yeah you too,
man, thank you so much.Patrina is on the line here, Patraina,
what's up. I feel like I'ma failure because I can only come
up. Are you there? Yeah? There you are? Sorry we lost

(26:15):
you for a second. Go ahead, that's okay. So my first one
is not going to be very popular. I want Princess Bride to the Adventures
of Montoyo as the drug pirate Roberts, okay, little Angle. I am
all in on seeing that okay,okay, fair. My second is The
Saint. It was supposed to bethe new James Bond and it went nowhere.

(26:36):
Oh I really loved the first.I really want him more. Okay,
okay, I want when Harry metSally the kids. Okay, when
Harry met Sally the kids kid?Now see, uh, everybody in that
generation. I feel like when Harrymet Sally means something to them. So
I think that you could really getbehind that. I think I think you're

(27:00):
onto something. No problem. Ithought she maybe had one more appreciate it,
Patrina. Mike's on the line fourtwo, five, five, eight

(27:22):
turf saying you need to do it, is you're going to have to carry
a volleyball? Oh and I reallydo love the idea of movies that should
not have had sequels too. Yeah, there are so many bad ones.
Yeah, well we'll have to dothat someday because you go a lot of
the angles with that. I'm okay. The volleyball thing is Tom Hanks not

(27:45):
like what is if you're afraid ofvolleyball. What what is that? There's
got to be a word for it. Fear of volleyball. I'm going to
find it. Oh, volleyball phobialegitimate, It's legitimate volleyball something like that.
Yeah, he would have all Ifeel like that would be just a
trigger Mike for him for the restof his life. I think maybe,

(28:08):
yeah, he's got uh, he'sgot Wilson phobia. Yeah, he can't.
He can't even say the word Wilsonanymore in his life. He says
it and he shutters. You knowwhat I mean. I I I feel
like if we're gonna come up withsomething that he's gonna have a companionship with
if he gets stranded again, we'regonna have to go in a different direction.
Spear fierce spheroids in of themselves probablyare a no go for him after

(28:30):
this. I'm just throwing that outthere. You know, I don't know.
All right, Mike, appreciate thecall. YEP, see you later,

it's funny anyway. Okay, sosome of the emails coming in, Hey,
David says fast Times at Ridgemont Highover the top, throw Mama from
the train. Dad's next and Fletchedtwo, a funnier remake of Fletched two?
Oh? Was there already a Fletchtwo? Also, as far as

(30:48):
sequels go, Rob emailed in andsaid we had somebody call in and say
History of the World, and hesaid, there already is a History of
the World Part two. It wasreleased last year and it is on Hulu.
So there is a sequel to that. There you go. I haven't
seen that one though, I haven'tseen I watched the first one, but

(31:08):
I haven't seen the second one.All right, next next one, we
had Doug who said, ready playerone, that's a good one. John
Carter Animal House, Yeah, Ithink that guy's dead, isn't he what
We're gonna do it again? Isit Jim or John? I can't remember.
John's the dead one. Okay.So John Belushi has passed on and

(31:30):
he will not be an Animal Houseif we did Animal House two, and
we really wanted to pay homage toJohn who plays him. Does it have
to be an SNL guy? MelissaMcCarthy, okay, get out of here.
I think that would make the Hollywoodbrass quite pleased. Yeah, sure

(31:53):
would. And she's hilarious. Bythe way, have you seen Bridesmaids?
Yeah, Bridesmaids whatever, I don'tcare. Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wig and
a buddy comedy movie. I'm thereevery day of the week. It's just
a little over to the top.I can only handle one of them at
a time. They were great together, okay, especially in the bathroom scene.
I don't want to I don't wantto know. I don't want to

(32:14):
know. Okay. So on thatfront, I did want to tell you.
I did watch a movie called Unfrostedon Netflix and it's on Yeah.
So, so, Matt, didyou see Unfrosted on Netflix? I have

(32:36):
it. I've heard about it.Seinfeld's new movie. Yeah, and Melissa
is there. Melissa McCarthy is init, Okay, and there's just random
famous, awesome actors just pop itin throughout the movie. I really liked
it. It was funny, itwas silly. It's very SEINFELDI I was
laughing throughout. I enjoyed it.Go find it anyway. Doug finished his

(32:58):
list by stripes stripes. That's agreat one. Mary says, Napoleon Dynamite
agreed with me. There, bigDaddy, there's your Sandler movie. The
Ghost, the Ghost or Ghost,oh no, the Ghost and mister Chicken.
There you go. And Mary saysForrest Gump. Forrest Gump, like
you and me both had a Hanksmovie. She says, Forrest Gump,

(33:20):
what could you possibly what could bethe sequel for that movie? I thought
about that too, just as faras like what would make the coolest sequel?
And I that was my thought too. How many things in American history
didn't he like take part in?Do we just have to start in like
the mid nineties when the movie wasmade, and just like little Forest,
like we call Haley Joel Osmond upand just be like, Hey, you're
gonna be Forrest Gump's kid again,except you're gonna be the main character this

(33:43):
time, and you have to somehowbe connected to all these things that happen
in American history. I think there'sprobably enough between then and now to make
a whole movie out. Okay,so give me five right now, Oh
boy, Well, Hailey Joel Osmondin the movie is like three years old.
So where does Forrest stop? What'sthe what's the last big cultural event

(34:06):
of history that he randomly pro Ihave based on the timeline of the movie.
I mean, he's he's messing around, he's in Vietnam, okay,
and he invests in Apple as anadult, and then he gets with Ginny.
I mean, am I led tobelieve that this is sometime in the

(34:27):
eighties. Let's see, I've gota oh look at this. This is
beautiful whole timeline here, it goes, it stretches into the eighties, it
stops in the early eighties. Okay, so theoretically it's early eighties, So
Haley Joel Osmon in the movie wouldbe like mid eighties because he's he's a
kid, Like, what can hepossibly get himself mixed up with until he's

(34:50):
like like maybe like when he's inhis early teen years, maybe he starts
like running into famous people or something. The last notable thing, at least
based on this list on a websitethat has a really nice timeline layout of
this, nineteen eighty is the lastthing, and it is Apple computer goes
public, but when does Jenny dienineteen eighty two? Okay, so we

(35:12):
know that, right, So you'dhave to pick up in maybe eighty three?
Yeah, because well, is thatwhen him and Little Forest are like
sitting there at the end of themovie and he sends Little Forest to school?
Can we just assume that it's likeeighty three? Yeah? So Little
forest birthday has to be like seventyeight. He's got to be born in
like seventy eight, right, somethinglike that. Timeline wise, if we're

(35:36):
going to make a legitimate Forrest Gumsequel, little Forest is born in like
seventy eight, right, How olddoes he have to be before we start
believing that he ran into some ofthese famous people or some of these really
important events in American history? Teenager? Maybe college years like ninety? Does
twelve? Like if he gets tonineteen ninety and he's about twelve, does

(35:58):
do we pick up there? Okay? And how much Hanks do we see?
Because again it's this is Haley's movie. Now? Then is he away
from home and he just calls dada few times? Like you know what
I mean? Let's say he haslike a run in with Kurt Cobain and
Ravana. You know, like arandom passing. He doesn't know who they

(36:19):
are, just like him being onthe TV show with Lennon that one time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, allright, now we're talking. But
he'd be like twelve or thirteen yearsold. How does that work? They're
down south, They're down like Alabama, right, unless they pick up and
move to Seattle. Well, you'dhave to get him there somehow. You
write the story into it, right, make the story have like scroppers and

(36:42):
Mecha is still making movies, likeis there is he? Is there nothing
in his brain to be able tomake this one work. I don't know.
I feel like we're asking a lot. I like the idea, though,
it's a good idea. Christy's ona phone line of four to two,
five, five, eight, eleventen. What's up, Christy?
Hey? How are you doing?What do you got for good? Good?
Hey? Well, somebody already tookfast times at Ridgemont High by Saris

(37:07):
Mueller's day Off, Hey for sure? Sixteen candles mm hmm, Uncle Buck
and Multiplicity Multiplicity with Michael Keaton.I don't know if anybody knows what multiplicity
is, but fabulous movie. Yeah, I haven't seen that one. Michael

(37:27):
Keaton though I'm a big fan ofhis, so uh yeah, okay,
all right, all right, Chrissy, I can get behind it. Thanks
so much for calling in. Goodhave a great weekend. Yeah you too.
Let's Randy says, leave the worldbehind, totally left everyone hanging with
no closure at all. Isn't thatwhat they were going for there? Though,
by the name of the show itsounds like it. Yeah, Curtis

(37:49):

of our show. So stick aroundhere on news radio eleven ten kfa B.
If you remember your movie this time, Jeff, I'm so I'm Henry,
I'm so sorry, You're good.My movie is Butch Cassidy and the
Sun Dance Kid. I don't knowwhy it was never remade. Oh yeah,
And if they did it, andif they did it today, it
should it should star Brad Pitt andGeorge Clooney. Ah, yes, bring

(38:36):
those two back. What chemistry theyhad. Eachin's eleven is one of my
favorite movies. By the way,that's an awesome one. Appreciate Jeff.
Thanks for hanging in there and callingus back. Thank you. All right,
Wayne's on the line of four thetwo, five, five, eight,
eleven, ten. Hello, Wayne, what do you got? Yeah,
so I got The Last star Fighter, which was an atrociously bad movie

(38:57):
but fun and it needs to beeither remade or have a sequel. Okay,
we've got uh, The Breakfast Club, Okay, I'm with you.
Yeah, Rise of the Guardians okay, the movie my kids love, which
is fantastic Okay, and a moviethat should have had a sequel and never
did and never will because you cannever replace the Ingrid Bergman. Casablanca.

(39:20):
Yeah, that's a that's a longtime ago there, Wayne, you're pulling
You're You're trying to go eighty yearsbetween movies that. I'm not sure all
that's gonna work, but nice.Appreciate it, buddy, Thank you.
Yeah, thanks for the call quicklyto Logan. Logan your last call out
of the day. What's up?Yeah, I was just piggybacking off of
that Forrest Gump movie with kind ofthe timeline thing. I think it'd be

(39:46):
cool if, you know, hecould kind of follow in his father's footsteps
and once nine to eleven have beenjoined the war with that possibly and then
but not maybe become the war herothat his father was and then somehow meet
up with like Elon Musk and likepossibly go to the moon or something.

(40:07):
Okay, Like I just think likea couple of those things, you know,
timeline wise, my be able towork out. Yeah, So if
we did it, there's something there. Yeah, definitely. Okay, So
Hailey Joel Osmon's character, Little Forest, we have narrowed down to like sev
seventy seven or seventy eight. He'dbe like twenty three or twenty four at
nine to eleven, So that'd beperfect timeline for him to join the military

(40:28):
after nine to eleven. So youmight just pick it up there. You
might just pick up like you know, for Little Forrest is graduating from college
and then we just go from liketwo thousand on and then we're off.
I think we I like it.I actually think that we can do something
with that. Yeah, I thinkI think that's a possibility. Actually,
all right, Logan appreciate the callman, thanks for being a part of
the show. Yeah, yeah,no problem. All right, So few,

(40:52):
I'm gonna just like sprint through someof these emails real quick. Rob
says, pulp fiction Days of Thunder, Yeah, pulp fiction. Tarantino,
He's not much of a sequel guy, but to Day's a Thunder is a
good one. Tom Cruise, youknow, I don't know if what we
can do with that now, butI would have absolutely watched Nicole Kidman being
super hot and Tom Cruise being anawesome race car driver. I'll watch that

(41:15):
again, he says, the Abyssand then Fast and Furious. Now that's
a joke. Because he made likefifteen sequels, that's gotta be a joke.
Kyle says, a second mystery manin Titan Ae. Also allital Battle
Angel. That thing looked crazy.That was a wild looking movie. Elite
A Battle Angel, Darren says,Galaxy Quest, Earth's Last Defense, Wild
Hogs, that was a pretty funnyone. Sleepless in Seattle. There is

(41:37):
another Tom Hanks movie, Walk theLine, Tom Johnny cash Corey says,

one. And then let me seehere, No country for old men needs
