Despite how high the grossing would be if they did make a sequel, it seems highly unlikely. Also, what would the plot be?

In which war is the film saving private Ryan set?
Stephen Ambose wrote the book "A Band of Brothers" which is a historical docmentary the tells the about what happened to a small company in an Airborne regiment. Tom Hanks made this into a TV series. In the book it mentions that one paratrooper had lost two brothers so the Army ordered him back home since he was the sole-surviving heir. Tom Hanks and Spielberg discussed this bit of history and imagined how difficult it would be to locate a paratrooper who could have landed anywhere on the entire Normandy area. Even though the real incident did not require a search team, they formed a story around a team that was sent to locate the one paratrooper. They filled in the story to include details of the characters and based it on totally fictious people. Added August 2011: Whilst some of the above is correct, in fact Saving Private Ryan came before band of Brothers and it was during the filming of Saving Private Ryan that hanks and Spielberg discovered they were both interested in a TV series based on the days after the DDay landings, they decided to collaborate on Band of Brothers as Hanks already had the rights to the book. Saving Private Ryan is a totally fictional story written specially for the film BUT there was in fact some inspiration and this is where the story gets complicated: The Niland brothers are said to have been the inspiration as many of them died during WW2 and 2 are burried in the same cemetary that we see in Saving Private Ryan; side by side above Gold Beach. Then there are the Sullivan brothers all 5 of whom were killed when their boat was torpedoed (one is said to have survived the sinking but was killed in a shark attack shortly after).
When was Saving Private Ryan made?
The opening scenes depicted the first wave to land on the beaches on 6 June 1944. A few days after this, Captain Miller was given the order to located Pvt Ryan. They met up with him on 13 June. I believe the final battle scene was the next day. Of course, this movie is a fictional story that was based around the events of the war and some of the events and places in the movie were not accurate according to actual historical records.
Why did the movie Saving Private Ryan take place?
They must first find Private Ryan which is not easy because there is a war on and he is a paratrooper who has been dropped somewhere behind enemy lines. After they find him, the task remains to keep him alive and deliver him safely to friendly lines. There is another unforeseen problem in saving him which arises toward the end of the movie, but I will not give it away.

Are there any lasting affects of world war 2 today?
The history books have become thicker.... kids in school would be happier if 1939-1945 were just like any other years. But on the other side we would not have had movies like Saving Private Ryan etc. The history books have become thicker.... kids in school would be happier if 1939-1945 were just like any other years.
