Will Smith Not Boarding 'Independence Day 2'
Independence Day 2 director Roland Emmerich recently announced that the star of the first film, Will Smith, is too expensive and well-known to reprise his role. While the decision is questionable, Emmerich isn't the only director to make a sequel without the star of its previous film. [Image: 20th Century Fox]

'American Psycho 2'
How could they ever make a sequel to American Psycho, you ask? By having barely anything in common with the original film. The movie follows Rachel Newman (played by Mila Kunis!), a woman in college who apparently killed off Patrick Bateman and is now a full-blown serial killer. With a direct-to-video release, co-star William Shatner, and the tagline "Sex is the main weapon for bizarre killings!", really, how could you go wrong? Based on reviews, apparently, you can.

'Cruel Intentions 2'
The "prequel" for Cruel Intentions is basically the same movie with different actors in the roles. (Fun Fact: Amy Adams fills the Sarah Michelle Gellar role.) What's even more surprising is that someone made a third volume for this terrible, direct-to-video release. [Image: Fox]
'Grease 2'
One of the most famous bad sequels, Grease 2 showed us that that lightning doesn't strike twice when it bombed at the box office. Also? Michelle Pfeiffer is just a "meh" singer. The only bright spot in this film was the new "Sandy" role was played by a really hot British guy. Otherwise, it's just a dollar store version of America's favorite musical. [Image: Paramount]
'Mean Girls 2'
It may have a different cast, but it still has everything you love about the original! Except the jokes. And Tina Fey. And the message about not competing with other women. Okay, forget what I said, this movie is really just another cheaply made teen comedy about the "not popular" girls versus the "popular" girls. [Image: ABC Family]
