This movie needs a sequel

and I don't really care if it wouldn't be nearly as good as the original because chances are it wouldn't be. I would just love to see the characters again and in a new story. Hollywood continues to churn out crap, prequels, sequels, remakes, etc, why not give this cult favorite a sequel.

If they shot it in the exact same way with a super small budget, it could be done. Even Jon Heder himself has said he's open to coming back.

Yes please, I would go see it at the cinema. I miss going to the cinema.

The short lived series was the sequel.

No.. it would have probably sucked like most sequels do. And well, if you want a sequel, check out the ND cartoon series (it only lasted one short season).

RIP IMDb.
