Choosing her words very carefully, the actress tells THR, "People that were integral to making it are in communication about how to do something more."

Piper Perabo says there has been "some discussion" about a sequel to Coyote Ugly.

The actress visited The Hollywood Reporter's suite at San Diego Comic-Con to promote her upcoming spy-thriller series Butterfly, alongside castmembers including Daniel Dae Kim, who stars in and executive produces the Prime Video series.

The film, which was released 25 years ago next month, stars Perabo as an aspiring songwriter who moves to New York to pursue her dreams and winds up taking a job at a trendy bar, Coyote Ugly. The cast also includes Adam Garcia, John Goodman, Maria Bello, Izabella Miko, Tyra Banks, Bridget Moynahan and Melanie Lynskey.

I saw that movie by chance. I didn't think it was a good movie, but it wasn't bad either, from what I remember.About a 7 score.

Another film destined to be part of "Ghostbusters Syndrome"

Serious question, what is ghostbusters syndrome? is it replacing with incompetent talents?

In all fair play, this should be about an ALL DUDE stud bar done Magic Mike style.

And if they got actual good looking guys, especially some like Henry Cavill, and marketed it to that lonely horny housewife market, it would MAKE BANK.

Why we don't have a "Sexy guy" flick every year marketed to be the "girls night out experience" is beyond me. My wife and all of her friends would eat that shit up. Then they come home hot to trot and its a win all around

Ghostbusters Syndrome,

A term I that nicknamed him

Ghostbusters Syndrome, Is a event where they choose cult movies from the 70's to 90's that were very good and are icons, where Hollywood was asked to make a sequel and they didn't want to because they were egocentric.

It causes....mediocrity and little or little ingenuity in the creativity and inspiration of making good films with a great story.

Resulting in little creativity, where they resort to resurrecting franchises or movies, but without the main cast or wanting to add new hateful characters and without spark... Resulting in sequels after more than 10 years where they are a failure and are mediocre Reboots or sequels, Where the main protagonists no longer have the strength.


Main enemy: times and eras change, long wait for sequels where no one is excited anymore, new audiences who do not know the legacy of the film.


Examples

-Ghostbusters: Afterlife

-Beetlejuice 2

- The last Scream movie

-Star wars Episode VII, VIII, IX

- The new Indiana Jones movie

- Coming 2 America.

-Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F


Exceptions that are saved.

Top Gun Maverick

No one wants this. The first one isn't good either.

Seriously. Might as well be asking for a sequel to Josie & The Pussycats next.

That would be better probably.

I have never seen that movie, only the cartoon.

 

[DKehoe]

No one wants this. The first one isn't good either.

Young people are more into stuff like TikTok while a lot of the older audience aren't really interested in things they aren't already familiar with. So they're now scraping the barrel for "hey, remember this?"

 

[diffusionx]

It's a cute movie that can't be made the same way anymore about a time and place that doesn't exist anymore. Revisiting it makes no sense whatsoever.

 

[Azzurri]

Who wants to see middle aged women dancing on the bar?

Who wants to see middle aged women dancing on the bar?

You get that most Saturday nights at your local.

Top Gun Maverick

thanks for long explanation
actually, I was fan of star wars, that's the only explanation i can relate so well ( T _ T)
i can understand now, thanks!

 

[sono]

I loved the first one.

 

[Audiophile]

I have a soft spot for movies like this. Nice easygoing, turn of the millennium vibe.

Making a new one is pointless, that time is gone, the vibe is dead and we're incapable of just making fun stuff in this vein without overthinking it. It'll also be shot in the most lifeless manner and feel totally out of place next to the original which actually looks like a film.

"We can't rebuild it. We don't know how. We've lost the technology."

 

[VaultBoy101]

Piper Perabo, now there's a name I haven't thought of, heard, or seen for...well...25 years.

 

[reinking]

 

[jason10mm]

Fun fact, I've actually been to a Coyote Ugly (several, actually) and have done belly shots off the bartenderettes. Fun times in my yute, in my yute. Are they even still around?

 

[CokeDiet]

Ah yes, the sequel we've all been waiting for.

You can keep your Citizen Kane's, your Godfather's, your Shawshank Redemption's. Real film buffs know Coyote Ugly is where it's at.
