Easy Rider Prequel

It was bound to happen sooner or later. Someone has finally made a take-off of the cult classic biker movie “Easy Rider”. The working title is “Easy Rider, The Ride Back” and the movie is labeled as a prequel. Which means most of the movie is supposed to show what led up to the original movie, just like the new “Star Trek” movie.

The movie shows Wyatt’s brother riding a resurrected “Captain America” bike with his buddy who just happens to ride a “Billy Bike” replica. We also get to meet other Williams family members, I didn’t know that was Wyatt’s last name. Like the original movie the new version is supposed to have a kickin’ musical score. The movie which is aimed to a newer, younger generation of viewers is tentatively slated for a late September release.

Now I had planned someday to write a sequel to the original movie. I figured that Wyatt and Billy had both fathered sons by the Hippie chicks at the commune and also with the “ladies” at the cat house. The two groups would accidentally meet up in Sturgis. Noticing the uncanny resemblance to each other they start a quest, on bikes of course, to find their heritage.
