They've made big bucks for the studio so this announcement didn't surprise me,

Well, they wrote the stories for them. No guarantee they'll actually get made if the next one fails.

I do find it interesting how the domestic take has dropped while the international box office take has increased as the franchise has progressed.

Thankfully I have missed these gems at the theater and home. Pretty sure I won't be seeing the new ones either....

That's a short list, actually.

Johnny Dangerously, Spy Hard, and of course UHF are the only 3 I know of.

Same here, I saw about 5 minutes of one and thought it was damn near the stupidest movie scene I'd seen all year.

Of course Nimoy just died this year while Welles died in 1985.

This must be part of being one of the younger folks here. I still finally remember seeing the movie in theaters when I was in kindergarten, and i still have the soundtrack on CD.

Here's what I was referring to:
