More Movie Sequels and Remakes Part 2

In case you missed the previous Movie Sequel/Prequel posts (click hereherehere, and/or here), this is where I tell you about some of the crap Hollywood is spitting out due to their lack of original ideas.  And away we go:
  • Paranormal Activity 4 - Thankfully I never saw the first three, so I can miss this one and not feel bad about it.
  • Chronicles of Riddick 2 - This is actually the third movie in the series and I saw the first two and thought they were okay (especially the first one, Pitch Black), but a third one is unnecessary.
  • Alex Cross - This is technically a sequel because it will be the third movie based on author James Patterson's character, Alex Cross (the other two movies being Along Came A Spider and Kiss The Girls).  However this time, Tyler Perry is playing the part instead of Morgan Freeman, so there is no way this will be worth watching.
  • Jack Ryan - Another in the series by Tom Clancy, this time Chris Pine (aka the new Captain James T. Kirk) is taking on the part of the CIA operative.  Also, Kiera Knightly is in the this film, so I'm happy.
  • The Hobbit Part 3 - Peter Jackson recently announced that he will be splitting this series into three movies.  Why?  I have no idea other than Peter Jackson probably knocked up a bunch of women and needs the money for child support.
  • The Fast and the Furious 6 - I am only going to say this once, STOP watching these movies, they are stupid and need to be stopped.  If you stop going to see them, they will stop making them and everyone's lives will be better.
  • Despicable Me 2 - Al Pacino is doing a voice in the sequel to one of my nephews' favorite movies, but what in the hell happened to Pacino's career?  The last movie that he was in that I can remember was the Razzie winner, Jack and Jill, you know, that terrible Adam Sandler flick.  And now this, what went wrong, Al?
  • Grown Ups 2 - What?!?  Adam Sandler hasn't made a decent movie in over a decade but someone keeps allowing him to make more (Big Daddy being the last good one).  Why?  Does he have incriminating pictures of someone?  That's the only explanation I can come up with.
  • Robocop - I would make fun of this movie, but the incredible Gary Oldman is in it and that guy is awesome.  Then again, so is Samuel L. Jackson and he starred in Snakes on a Plane and if he was in that, he will be in any piece of shit.
  • Red 2 - Alright, finally a sequel that I will endorse.  I loved the first movie and will definitely see the new one and suggest you do too.
"This is some of the concept art from the new Robocop and sadly, he looks more like Master Chief from Halo than he does Robocop.  It will probably suck.......a lot."
