VOICE OVER: Dan
Someone needs to remind Hollywood that sometimes, no follow-up is needed. Some of the most classic movies around have been stand alones, and we as an audience are thankful for that. But what would happen if some greedy Hollywood exec decided to capitalize on the love of a movie like, oh let's say “The Shawshank Redemption”? In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com counts down our picks for the top 10 unlikely movie sequels. For this list, we're compiling a series of movie theoretical movie sequels you're not likely to see in theaters – unless Hollywood really runs outta ideas. We've disqualified movies that already have sequels, so no “Ocean's 14” or “Jaws 19” here.

Special thanks to our user Daniel John for submitting the idea on our Suggestions Page at WatchMojo.comsuggest
