Movies for which a sequel is totally inappropriate

Whenever I imagine a sequel that should not be made, I always imagine the title will be “[movie title]: [greater amount of movie title]” or “[movie title] 2: Electric Boogaloo.” Try it with any of the movies on this list:

  • Fair Game: the Valerie Plame story
  • Titanic
  • Philadelphia
  • The Sixth Sense
  • The Passion of the Christ
  • Love Story*
  • Ghost
  • Armageddon
  • All the President’s Men
  • Amadeus
  • Apollo 13
  • Dr. Strangelove
  • Groundhog Day
  • Donnie Brasco
  • Hamlet(*)
  • Les Miserables
  • Schindler’s List
  • 12 Angry Men
  • A Walk to Remember
  • Where the Red Fern Grows
  • 2012
  • The Last Airbender
  • Shrek*
