S. Darko, Speed 2, more: 20 sequels that never should have happened

Martin Scorsese's boxing opus Raging Bull is mystifyingly getting a sequel, more than 30 years since the breathtaking original cemented itself as an instant classic.In Hollywood, having a recognisable brand name and box office success means that no movie is safe from an unnecessary sequel. For every top sequel like The Dark Knight and Godfather: Part II, there are a tremendous amount of turkeys on hand to sully the name of great movies.
With Raging Bull II and the mooted Jurassic Park 4 on the mind, Digital Spy takes a look back at 20 unwanted sequels in the gallery below:
S. Darko (2009)
Donnie Darko director Richard Kelly had no involvement in this terrible follow-up, which picked up the mind-melting storyline with Donnie's younger sister Samantha (Daveigh Chase) experiencing terrifying visions.

I think Speed Two was a good story but should have called something else as had nothing o do with first either that or got Keanu on board.
