most disappointing superhero sequel?


is there a more disappointing superhero (first) sequel than WW84?

Superman II? No way.. Batman Returns? No..Blade 2? No...X2? lol... Spiderman 2? No... Amazing SM2? No.. TDK? phaha... Cap America TWS? No..

Thor TDW? Maybe... Ironman 2? idk ... Avengers Ultron? kinda.. Birds of Prey? Isn't really the sequel to SS

Batman & Robin and Superman 3 were both sequels.

Birds of Prey was really bad.

But nothing -- and I mean NOTHING -- is worse than Guardians of the Galaxy Vol II.

Batman Returns had made sense even if that sense was gothic and at times angry.

My only regret was it left us hanging---bc Keaton, Pfeiffer and Burton all moved on to other projects. Oh and we got a horrible 'Catwoman' sequel which never should have seen the light of day.

Batman Returns? I think you mean Batman and Robin lol.

Batman Returns was a commercial success. It only had a $80,000,000 total production budget but made back $162,833,635 in domestic sales alone

Batman and Robin LOST money domestically. It had a $125,000,000 budget but only made $107,325,195 domestically ouch

im only talking about 1st immediate sequels like Batman Returns, Superman II, WW84 etc and you right BR wasnt a disappointment. Well it was a bit in comparison to B89 as it was a drop in box office and esp to WBros who didnt like all the complaints from parents complaining that their traumatized kiddies were crying into their BR happy meals lol

reply

I wasn't crying. I thought it was great.

You clearly have no clue how to rate movies if you think that Avengers AGE OF Ultron and Thor TDW were worse than this movie, or anywhere near it for that matter.

reply

Not the worst by any means (just off the top of my head I'd put Iron Man 2 and Batman & Robin below it), but it certainly wasn't great.

reply

Spider-Man Far From Home? It might not be as bad as Batman and Robin, and Iron Man 2.

reply

The first wonder woman was decent and this one wasnt as good so I don't think it's a huge drop off.

One of the worst ones was dark knight rises. Even though the actors involved were good the whole thing is a mess and the twist is unnecessary and the ending is crap. It was set up to be the best comic book trilogy until the 3rd one
