You might not expect the likes of Rob Zombie's Halloween II making our top lists but you still may be surprised what we considered to be the best sequels we watched in the last year.

Here on The Everything Sequel Podcast we're carefully suiting up with bee suits, gently coaxing the bees to collect all the nearby nectar, being sure that the bees breakdown the nectar into simple sugars followed by inspecting that the bees are flapping their little wings hard enough to dehydrate the nectar, and then subsequently ensuring that the honey is stored into it's hexagon-shaped beeswax h...

We've sharpened our pencils and jotted down our ideas because it's time for you to tell us which pitch you like for the Star Wars sequel trilogy!

Perhaps you would like to see Rey build a new Jedi temple? Or would you rather see somethi...
