105 Movie Sequels in the Works??? Egads!

-Den of Geek's Simon Brew is a man of mental imbalances!  (Or he lost a bet!)  Apparently he sunk a serious amount of time into compiling a list of movie sequels in the works and he came up with one hundred and five titles.  His list does not include sequels actually being released this year, prior to October.  But wow, it's a huge list.

Of course in the list are production announcements of movies whose film is igniting the sequel chat, hasn't even hit theaters yet.

If you follow me, I've conjectured it's a mere marketing spin for a studio to say they have a sequel lined up.  It's easier to just drop the ball on a bombed project while pumping up expectations for the movie that's still set to come out. 

I remember when Green Lantern and Conan the Barbarian movies were just hitting their production strides and the news about their sequels were all the rage...  well, we saw how that worked out.

Any how... a few select sequels noted:

  • 21 Jump Street 2 (probable, considering how well it did in it's opening weekend.)
  • The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (eh, probably.)
  • The Avengers 2/Avengers Re-assemble
  • Batman chapters, without Christopher Nolan.
  • Clash Of The Titans 3
  • Ghost Rider 3
  • The Hunger Games: Catching Fire  (Development was ongoing during production of The Hunger Games)
  • John Carter 2

It's a huge list of movies so I'd suggest hitting up their website and seeing their list and some of their words on each title and its chances of actually making it to the silver screen!
