I don't think I could handle seeing any more characters die. Angel was heartwrenching enough.

Definitely not.
I'm a huge fan of Rent - of the stage version of Rent - but I didn't like the movie version. I felt that it turned a beautiful, moving story into a bland way to spend two hours. Not only that, but it moved away from the 'spirit of Rent' [if you will allow me to sound corny for a moment] a lot more than a lot of fans wanted it to. This spirit [for lack of a better word] is so important because the writer of Rent, Jonathan Larson, died right before the show opened on Broadway and so many of his fans want things done the way he would have done them - which is so hard to tell, since he is now gone.
To make a sequel of the movie would separate from the spirit even more!
The end of Rent was written very precisely - it is not the same as La Boheme, the opera on which is it based, in which Mimi dies. Jonathan Larson wrote it to celebrate life, so Mimi lived.
To add more to the story would change his ideas and would make the story much less moving.
Of course, it WOULD be interesting to see how the character did after the story!

Since there is not one from Broadway, I don't think there should be.
I guess I am sort of a purist.
