‘Domestic Disturbance’Bill Simmons

Would do an all-Black cast remake/version, and also wants a prequel showing the racketeering/Chicago backstory with characters like Ron Dean, Wayne Jenkins, Fergie the Florist, Zane Lowe, Robert Evans, and Dr. Charles Nichols, including a scene of Dr. Nichols at the Chamber of Commerce ceremony with Frank present

‘Domestic Disturbance’Chris Ryan

Wants a sequel about Ray's other two convict accomplices who were never caught, with Ray having to build boats (getaway/drug boats) to pay off his debt to Frank

‘Domestic Disturbance’Sean Fennessey

Would do a prequel focused on the racketeering storyline

‘The Hand That Rocks the Cradle’Bill Simmons

Joked that a limited series version would include an unnecessary 'backstory episode' with Dr. Mott, mocking the trend of over-explaining villains' origins

‘The Hand That Rocks the Cradle’Chris Ryan

Presumed Innocent got remade as a limited series rather than a straight remake because it lets you get more episodes (referencing the recent limited series treatment)

‘The Hand That Rocks the Cradle’Joanna Robinson

Notes the temptation to make this into a limited series, but criticizes the trend (seen in shows like the Sarah Snook 'All Her Faults' and the 2025 Fatal Attraction-style remake) of giving villains excessive backstory/motivation rather than just letting 'bitches be crazy'

‘Single White Female’Bill Simmons

Points out that 'Single Black Female' starring Amber Riley and K. Michelle got a sequel

‘Animal House’Bill Simmons

A sequel could have worked if Belushi had died — a reunion-style continuation would have been funny

‘Animal House’Chris Ryan

This could have been a whole franchise, with new Animal House movies set throughout different decades

‘Tropic Thunder’Bill Simmons

Scorcher Seven (sequel to Scorcher) - jokes it's 'untouchable' like plutonium, and after the director wins his Oscar for global meltdown, they'd do Scorcher Seven like Interstellar, going to another planet

‘Tropic Thunder’Van Lathan

Suggests Scorcher Seven should have them 'go to another planet'

‘Fargo’Bill Simmons

Fargo TV series - mentions they had prestige TV and references the first season picking up with what happened to the money
