I certainly don't know if this is a record-breaking number or how I'd go about finding the amounts in passed years and this doesn't even cover prequels!

Just looking over this list, it's sad to se the shit that Hollywood thinks needs a sequel. Another American Pie sequel? More Bad Moms sequels (plural!)? Space Jam 2??? Surely a sign of the coming apocalypse.
Some of these have been in Development Hell for many years, so they're inclusions is just obligatory.
Looking over that list of 145 friggin' titles, I personally only came up with two I might be interested in seeing:
"Riddick 4"
IF it doesn't re-tread ground like the last one did.
"Spaceballs 2"
If it doesn't suck as much as that animated series from years back that Brooks was involved with.
Brooks was at a convention not too long ago and a tagline was under "Spaceballs" that didn't read "The Search for More Money", but rather: "The Schwartz Awakens".
Apparently IMDb has even more.

Really, those were the two you found potentially interesting?
Yes.
Riddick after Pitch Black has been a total bore-fest
PB is a good weird film.
Chronicles of Riddick, while having it's flaws, was interesting in that it tried to do something different than the first film and set up ideas and premises for a sequel, which were completely squandered with a retread that was Riddick. Hopefully this next sequel expands upon the universe.
and Spaceballs was just the worst-only beaten by Life Stinks and Dracula Dead and Loving It as Brooks' worst films.
You're in a minority. This film has a large cult following.
Plus he's what, 100 now? What does he need to be making crap sequels to crap originals for?
And yet he' still actively trying to get a sequel made and he's also trying to get everything done to make another Simpsons film; he may be 100, but he doesn't appear to be retiring.

I started a thread awhile back on this.
The thesis was that the vast, vast, majority of these films, including remakes, are not successful.
Can anyone find it?
the title was something like "Studios keep remaking ..."
