The Thing

Those two come to mind. Interestingly enough, the studio immediately ordered a sequel to "The Departed" upon its massive success. I guess they didn't bother to watch the film they had just produced, huh? Still, rumors still swirl from time to time that a prequel/sequel may be in the works, but I doubt it.
Scorsese, the director of The Departed, has yet to do a sequel to any of his movies. Personally don't see one coming for this one considering the end result of the movie also, relating to the title of the thread. Don't want to say too much for those who have not seen it, lol. Easily one of the best endings to a film, and for this one in particular.

As for sequels, heard through the grapevine most studios will pick up a movie if it has potential for a sequel and place a higher bid for the scripts based on sequel potential. How true it is however is another story.
