    Would they call it Ei8ht?

    BTW, Les Dawson wrote a novel called Come Back With The Wind - maybe they could film that!

    The Italian Job (original)........literally a cliff-hanger

    I wonder how they would have got out of it.

    Originally they planned an escape involving a helicopter and the mafia for the original film I believe but they thought the literal cliffhanger would be better and they were right

    Wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to the re-make where they did get away with it, if it was done correctly (unlike Ocean's Twelve which was a mess)

    And I'm glad, I read a script for a sequel and it was rubbish :D

    Still rumours now of a sequel being made :eek:

    I was just going to say that after looking at a pic of what Corey Haim looks like now on heatworld.com. All my teenage dreams shattered in an instant!

    Where did you read the script and was it really that bad?

    Theoretically they haven't made a sequel to Die Another Day, Casino Royale went back in Bond's career.

    I'd like to see what Bond would do next.

    Starman - with Jeff Bridges released about the same time as ET.
    I think they made small TV series as a follow up but not a film.

    Mrs Doubtfire, although I heard that a sequal was planned but got scrapped because Williams didn't like the script.
