‘The Shawshank Re-Redemption’: Travel Movie Sequels That Could Have Been

The National Post’s Chris Knight has some fun pondering what most movie sequels would look like if they were required to pick up precisely where the previous flick left off, as the latest James Bond does. Among the more appealing travel-themed sequels he envisions? “The Shawshank Re-redemption, featuring the wacky hijinks of Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins as escaped convicts on the lam in Mexico.”

Of course, the rule would create some stinkers, too: “If Indiana Jones IV followed right after the end of The Last Crusade, it would consist of little more than everyone riding out of the desert and going back to work.”
