ComingSoon ran a piece called\u00a0Dead Film Franchises Begging to Be Revived<\/a>.\u00a0 Of the films listed, here are the three I felt most deserving and a couple of more that didn’t make the list but should have…<\/p>\n

Kill Bill<\/strong><\/em> – Tarantino has talked up a sequel for many years now.\u00a0 The set-up was right there in Kill Bill, Volume 1<\/em>:\u00a0 Ambrosia Kelley (who played Vivica Fox\u2019s daughter) is now grown and would return to take revenge on The Bride.<\/p>\n

Blade<\/strong><\/em> – I didn’t care for Blade<\/em>; loved Blade II<\/em> and thought Blade: Trinity<\/em> was good.\u00a0 So, why not bring back Snipes for another outing?<\/p>\n

Dirty Harry<\/strong><\/em> – My initial thought was, “No.”\u00a0 But the idea of Scott Eastwood picking up his dad’s role as Harry Callahan got me thinking that it could work.\u00a0 My biggest concern is that the social climate is much different now than it was when the original Dirty Harry<\/em> was released.<\/p>\n

Two movie franchises that didn’t make the list but should have…<\/p>\n

Billy Jack<\/strong><\/em> – I’d love to see a remake of Born Losers<\/em>, the film that introduced Billy Jack to the world.\u00a0 Get someone like Kurt Sutter to take the reigns and you’d have a winner.<\/p>\n

Escape from<\/em><\/strong> – Snake Plissken continues to be a popular character with fans.\u00a0 Have Wyatt Russell (Kurt’s son) put on the eye patch and let’s go.<\/p>\n
