Films ruined by sequels


Was there ever a film that you felt was disrespected by the bad or awful sequel(s) that followed it?

reply

Scream 3 ruined the franchise. Same goes for all of the Star Wars movies after the first 3.

Also Final Destination (and most horror movie franchises), Speed 2, Jurassic Park. Not a fan of the Back to the Future or The Matrix sequels either.

Speed 2 - what a waste of money.

Return of the Jedi and Terminator 2 are the two most recent that come to mind that were crapped on due to their sequels. Some others are Ocean's 11, Men in Black, Prometheus (I actually liked this one, I know a lot hated it). Completely agree with Highlander 2 and Speed 2, probably two of the worst sequels of all time.

i know y'all gonna hate me for this but honestly

Godfather II.

i hated it. and part 3 was miserable. I wish they left it as 1 movie- the ending was epic as it was and I don't give a damn about de Niro
