Jared Leto as Anton Chigurh.
The Fifth Element. And I hope it stays tat way.
Coming this summer: Rob Schneider is the 6th Element!!
Black Rain(1989)
Great antagonist, moral ambiguity, and culture clash.
Master and Commander. Wonderful movie, but opened at the wrong time. Could have been a nice series of movies.
The first thing that comes to mind is everything Studio Ghibli. They are mostly great films, and have no sequels or remakes yet and I hope it stays that way.
I'm sure there has to be live action examples but I can't think of any right now.
Inception? I'm always surprised about it getting left alone as it should.
Anytime somebody starts eyeing the rights to it, they get incepted to leave it alone.

Thankfully the Rock's remake seems to have been scrapped (fingers crossed it stays that way), so Big Trouble in Little China (hence my name).
I'd also say The 'Burbs (one of my favorites) but it just got a series.
Kung Fury
For those unaware, the sequel has been filmed and ready to go for years but has been blocked from release by law suits.
Ouch.
trolling
The Matrix.
What are you talking about? They never made them.
Collateral. That movie was so ridiculously good.
Galaxy Quest
There's a whole bunch of spin-offs, most of them series. Star something.
- The Big Lebowski
- Pulp Fiction
- Napoleon Dynamite
- Tropic Thunder
- Super Bad
- Interstellar
- Forest Gump
- ~~2001 A Space Odyssey~~
- Pan's Labyrinth
- Tenacious D - The Pick of Destiny
- Event Horizon
Napoleon Dynamite
Check out Tapawingo, it's not a sequel but it stars Jon Heder and has the same kinda mood: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14146836/
What would a Pan's Labyrinth sequel even look like?
God I hope there is never an Interstellar sequel. It could only diminish the original.
I totally agree

District 9 -.-
He said he's currently working on District 10
I think he was talking about this when 9 was released.
True, it's been talked about probably since District 9 came out, but in recent interviews he says there is a partial screenplay written but is just wrapped up in Oats Studios atm
I mean, there are plenty of highly-rated movies that don't have a sequel (and probably that's a good thing).

Dark City. And it needs neither.
The Big Lebowski
ahh that would be impossible to do, the bar is set so high
That's like your opinion man!
ahah yea
Anyone who tries to remake or sequel The Princess Bride will have a special place in hell reserved for them.
Master and Commander
Office Space
Silicon Valley is the sequel.
Judge keeps waffling and there was a title has been kicking around Hollywood for years.
Demolition Man.
Brazil. Considering how weird it is I don’t think it’s in any danger of being remade or getting a sequel.
Lost in translation
