5 terrifyingly plausible sequel ideas for Mac And Me

Because a terrible movie deserves a terrible article suggesting some terrible potential ideas for the sequel that, alas, was never to be. Notice we used the word 'terrible' a lot.

Anyone familiar with light-hearted 80's alien romp Mac And Me will also know the crushing disappointment of the sequel that was promised at the end of the film, but never materialised. Well here at Shiznit Towers we dare to hope, and we hope to dream - dream of what could have been, had Mac and his weirdo family been given another shot at fame and glory...
Mac To The Future



Using his mysterious powers, Mac escapes the clutches of NASA agents by accelerating Michael's wheelchair to a lawsuit-avoiding 87 miles per hour. Hurtling backwards through time, the duo end up in Roswell 1947 where they have a close encounter with... Michael's father!
Sister Mac 2: Mac In The Habit



Mac and his family welcome a new member to the clan in this saccharin sweet Christmas Special. Cheerfulness abounds as we learn how Earth's newest adoptees celebrate the holiday season, and which of the alien's hands are actually their genitals.
MacGyver



Prequel. With their planet about to be sucked into a black hole, a quick-thinking Mac assembles an escape ship from some paperclips and an old toaster - only to crash land on a deserted neighbouring planet when his bumbling Dad takes over the controls.
Mac In Da Hood



After years of tuition and gentle coaxing by NASA's finest scientists, Mac finally utters his first words when he meets the love of his life. Featuring the guest voice of Samuel L. Jackson.
Mac Goes West



It's 1991, you're a screenwriter, it's late: fuck it - just chuck in a stetson and call it a night. After all, it was good enough for Johnny 5, Billy Crystal, Marty McFly, Fievel Mousekewitz and every second movie from that era.
Bonus! Mac And Meatloaf: Songs In The Key Of M


Shameless cash-grab featuring the super-sized star belting out odes to his favourite McSandwiches, as Mac whistles accompanying melodies in the background. Includes reworkings of such classic titles as 'Mac The Knife', and Fleetwood Mac's 'Dreams'.
