I was going to say "How the hell didn't Hunt for Red October" get a sequel?" But today I learned it sort of did; they've made like four other movies in the Clancy cinematic universe.

How about Galaxy Quest? I'm surprised they haven't made a Galaxy Quest sequel. Not because I think it needs one, but because it was a very popular and well received movie with stuff to talk about.

Galaxy Quest bombed at the box office.

Even so, there was talk of doing a sequel or even a series after it became a cult hit, but it stalled when Alan Rickman died.

I thought that 'Big Trouble...' did well but it turns out not to be so.
