Movies Killed By Sequels

No one has said Twilight..
Or is that just a given?
Twilight should have been stopped before the 1st one came out. Terrible in all aspects of life!
To be honest, the acting gets better with every movie, so I can't agree. The acting in the first one made my eyes water.0 -
Pirates of the Caribbean although, the fourth installment was decent.0
-
Crocodile Dundee, Major League, The Hangover0

Better is such an open term though!0 -
Nor was I impressed with the Boondocks Saints sequel.
Truth that the sequel wasn't great, but it didn't kill the greatness of the original like (for example) the sequels to the Matrix did. The second BDS is like the second Green Street Hooligans, I just kind of pretend they don't exist.
Agreed!0 -
Charlie's Angels! (The Drew Barrymore Cameron Diaz one)0

Fast and Furious... They could have stopped at 2 honestly. They are all great movies but they are just getting very annoying now
Actually, there is something to be learned from the movies.
"Life is like watching Fast and Furious 6. It's not easy, most of the time it's just dumb and pointless, everything is fake, there is a lot of noise, but if you close your eyes and picture yourself in an open field or a quiet forest, you can maybe make it to the end without killing yourself."
I think that the Fast & Furious movies (granted I haven't seen 6 yet) started out bad and have been getting gradually better with every one. The first one pissed me off because the acting was awful, the dialogue was cliche as hell, and the plot was basically a retelling of Point Break, which to me is a classic that ranks among one of my favorite movies of all time. The second one was a bit better, but not so good that I'd want to sit through it a second time, same with the third. However, beginning with part 4 I think they finally got their **** together and started putting something watchable and fun together, and 5 was even better.
Boondock Saints 2 was along the same lines as TFATF2 in my opinion: Watchable, but not so good you'd want to see it a second time.
Lost Boys is another one of my all time favorites, and neither of the sequels did the original justice (although part 3 did a somewhat admirable job of trying IMO). A while back I started writing my own Lost Boys fanfic to detail what I interpreted as the back story in between 1 and 2 and behind the ending, with Corey Haim's character appearing for that post credits scene as a vampire.0 -
In summary, "That's enough, "Saw" movies. Seriously, just cut it out." lol.0
