A GIRL AND HER DOG
This may be as close as you get.
Yes, this would have been awesome. All the potential was there: you had Casper Van Dien, Denise Richards, and Neil Patrick Harris in their newly promoted positions, Basil Poledouris writing the music, Paul Verhoeven leading the charge, cutting edge special effects, the war was still raging on. I don't know why it didn't happen. I think the film wasn't terribly well received when it came out though. I think it's only gained appreciation more recently. I don't think the critics really got the whole gung ho action flick meets cheesy war satire thing.
I honestly think that the animated ST is a decent "sequel" (of sorts) to the original film. The stdvd sequels were, as you correctly pointed out, trash of the worst kind.
Rather, I recall being disappointed that some of the interesting characters/actors in the original weren't back for the sequel, particularly Clive Owen's Dwight McCarthy (Brolin was ok but Owen was better imho) & Devon Aoki's deadly Miho (Jamie Chung didn't hold a candle to her). Additionally, I felt that Eva Green's character was a bit predictable (Green seems to have this shtick which she does in a lot of films: namely the evil temptress). It didn't help that she also starred in the 300 sequel during the same year.
Finally, I'm not a fan of Gordon-Levitt in anything. Like Farrell & Le Boeuf, he is almost the kiss of death for me.
I do love a bit of bestiality.
Come back Rick Moranis we miss you. ;)
The latter is getting a sequel on Syfy. Likely won't be as good as the first, but it's something for you.
That's probably because there isn't much news there. Like Creasy said, it's a SyFy channel production—which means no-names, atrocious CGI, and an even worse script. And best of all, probably very little connection to the original apart from a name drop or two. It's DBSINO (Deep Blue Sea In Name Only). Just an excuse to sell another cheapo shark movie.
