OP, face it, your ideas are horrible.

THIS is how a Face/Off sequel should go down:

1. The year is 2024, humanity as we know it is dead except for one man Sean Archer (John Travolta)
   
2. After the beta of an experimental video-chat app went horrifically wrong, the world's population was assimilated into the internet via their webcams to serve as the FBI's RAM slaves
   
3. Their physical bodies are still intact on Earth though, and thus so are all their faces
   
4. Sean Archer was left behind and is trying to find a way into Cybearth to rescue his family and the human race
   
5. The FBI finds out and declares him a traitor, and in the real world they digitally resurrect Castor Troy (The Cage) his greatest enemy via Coachella hologram technology
   
6. These invincible projections of Castor Troy eventually hunt down Sean Archer and in a brutal, melodic piano-backed scene, they graft a test-tube culture of Castor Troy's face onto Sean Archer's face, thus he becomes Castor Troy again, but wrinkled and aged because the cultured skin aged inside the test-tube
   
7. However, Castor Troy (The Cage) ((Sean Archer)) ((John Travolta))) discovers that his face has given him the necessary genes to biometrically hurt the FBI's projections
   
8. The FBI panics and digitally possess all the bodies on Earth with Tron: Legacy-style uncanny valley Younger Cage faces, and they attack Castor Troy en masse
   
9. Castor Troy destroys these infants with his 20-year-old gunkata, but behold, the FBI's final cyberbosses emerge from the Facetime portal for a final Face/Off with Castor Troy
   
10. The Elite 4 assembled, Castor Troy fights the trinity of FBI cyberclones in a 4-way Face/Off:
    
    Castor Troy (the original)
    Castor Tron (Cage 2.0)
    Castron Tron (Punished Cage)
    Tron TraVOLTRON (4th wall-breaking boss mecha piloted by Castron Tron)
    
    the above arranged by level of uncanny valley Younger Cage likeness
    
11. Just as they're about to gunkata to the death, credits roll; priming the franchise for 2 more sequels + annual merchandise

No working title yet.

there's some good stuff in here. I had specifically already thought about tron 2-like younger Cage, which would be great

I think we can mix our pitches here and there, cause I don't think it should go this level of bonkers till at least the third movie. There's still some deep character themes to explore before we get all demolition man, wouldnt you agree?

Just replace all the smiths with Nic Cages.

Face/Off 2: what the *fuck*... are you doing here?

It's a great film BTW.

 

[Warm Machine]

The idea that there is a criminal out there wearing Nic Cage's face is a damn good idea. Just write the whole movie around that single concept.

Did anyone start doing the hand over the face thing to their loved ones after seeing this movie? Seems like a real cool move to try.

It was on Watch last night, I hadn't seen it in years. HDTGM had an episode about it last week, so I thought I may as well watch it again. Didn't enjoy it really, it's aged worse than Con Air and it certainly is no The Rock. Wouldn't be excited for a sequel.

Film didn't age. You aged.

I want to take your age. Off.

 

[Deadstar]

it's fuckin gross

Imagine doing that move during an interview after thanking them for talking to you.

oh dude the idea of adding TWINS to this

I always liked the idea of having the Castor and Sean characters be siblings in a remake. Like you could get the Olsen twins and they take wildly different paths in life. Mary Kate has planted a bomb and only her imprisoned younger sister Elizabeth knows where it might be. Ashley has to infiltrate the prison as Mary Kate, so of course she has to switch faces with her twin sister.

It could work.
