re: What movie would you really like to see a prequel to.

Lonesome Dove, assuming McMurtry would write it

May not be a true prequel, but Predator. Predator and Predator 2 hinted at earlier trips to Earth during different historical periods. I'd like to see some of that.

Good one.

We already know what happens though

That would be boring

You really wouldn't want to see the slaying of Aerys where Jaime sits on the throne, the Battle of the Trident on the level of the Battle of Blackwater, the Sack of King's Landing, or the Tower of Joy?

Say what you will about the Hobbit trilogy, but every scene I was ecstatic about seeing was done masterfully and worth making. The scene with the trolls, Bilbo's Riddle game with Gollum, the Mirkwood Spiders, Smaug himself and his death, as well as Thorin's death. It was worth it just to see those scenes brought to the big screen. The problem was there was far too much fluff and shite in the middle of it. Should have been 2 movies. It just frustrating when Jackson just nails the scenes he knows he can't frick up on, and then fricks up everywhere else.

The Sandlot

Sure, but armed with the full knowledge of the outcome, would I care? Nope


How many times did we say "isn't it going to be awesome seeing the old republic, anakin skywalker, etc."

Part of the problems with those movies is we already knew what was going to happen, and those stories weren't as fleshed out as the events preceding game of thrones

I just haven't seen many prequels that I really liked. X-Men First Class was one, but I just don't see the point in investing in a project that tells a story that we already know the outcome. I would rather see a sequel.

Prometheus, but not a story about the human scientists. I'd like to know what happened to that alien race
