Followed up by Short Circuit 2: Lost in New York (not really), which doesn't have Steve Gutenberg or Ally Sheedy.

Doubly so if it's Steven Gutenberg who won't do your sequel. The man did, like 4 or 5 Police Academy movies!

Even the music video for Debarge managed to get Sheedy. For about 5 minutes, it seems.

PG-13 was introduced in 1984. Until then plenty of PG movies had violence and titties.

Edit: Howard was 1986 so add it to the many questions about how that movie came to be.

Howard the Duck wasn't meant to be a kids' movie, but I guess the movie studios and MPAA just looked at it like, "guy in a duck suit... it's gotta be for kids, right?" Haha, NO!

They did the same thing a few years ago with You Story 3. "Toy Story" sequel? Slap a 'G'' on it and go to lunch."

They got a lot of angry calls over the incinerator scene.

Yo, this one was hosed up because the first one was all about Curls and her Teen-Angst brother teaming up with the Ewoks to save their parents from being held captive by some rear end in a top hat, and then this one opens with a bunch of weird-rear end aliens just straight up murdering her entire family and a bunch of teddy bears until Wicket is like "Bitch, you gotta leave. I know a guy."

Missing in Action 2 was released first because it was the better of two (terrible) movies.

Golan-Globus films are in a category all alone, and I love it.

Superman 4: The Quest for Peace

Death Wish 3

Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo

I rewatched death wish 3 and 4 today. 3 was not nearly as fun as I remember it being aside from the last 20 minutes. Death Wish 4, however, is AMAZING. Charles Bronson blowing up obvious dummies with a wine bottle bomb, shooting up a drug operation with an uzi like he's robocop, taking out mafia goons at an arcade with an m16- it's a synthwave music video just dying to happen

The original Planet of the Apes movies' list of sequels are probably a blurry mess to a lot of people in terms of their order, their plots and their characters.

Urban Legend, the 90s horror movie, had two sequels. A theatrical 'UL: Final Cut" and DTV "UL: Bloody Mary".

Since horror movies tend to produce tons of sequels, there's also Killjoy.

It's amazing Mickey Rourke made such a comeback in the 2010's that he got to be in a full-on Disney/Marvel movie, considering he was more-or-less a softcore porn guy the first time he was famous.

This is far too good a story to be buried in a wikipedia link!

Peter Sagal, the host of NPRs 'Wait wait, don't tell me!" wrote a screenplay for a political thriller set in the last days of the Batista regime before the Cuban revolution in the 1950s. The script got stuck in development hell, and Sagal all but gave up on it.

Pretty much nothing of Sagal's political thriller remained in Dirty Dancing II, not even a single line of dialogue. There was a piece on the whole crapshow from Peter Sagal himself in This American Life. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/535/origin-story-2014/act-three

Yeah full moon pictures is still plugging away at making GBS threads out 5 million direct to video horror movies a year and is somehow still in business despite the fact that there aren't any video rental places left to unload on. My favorite is when they came out with demonic toys a shameless knockoff of a different direct to video series puppet master even though they owned the rights to puppet master and could have just made more.

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
Charles Band is one of the ultimate schlocky con man grifters. He had a sweet agreement with Paramount to release Full Moon Productions on VHS, but decided to gently caress them over by spending less on the movies than Paramount was giving him and also releasing DVDs without Paramount's involvement. Paramount said "gently caress you" and promptly dropped him where he lived in an abyss for many, many years selling MONSTER BRAS and bootleg/foreign DVD releases of old Full Moon stuff online



Now he seems to have the full rights to the catalog back and a Full Moon streaming service. Still a con man through and through though. Certain old VHS horror movies are incredibly rare and expensive to collectors, so he started manufacturing new VHS copies of old Full Moon stuff and trying to pass them off as old originals and rip people off.
