I don't watch sequels, prequels, spin-offs, or remakes. If I enjoyed a movie, I like to leave it all wrapped up & done. It makes life ever so slightly easier.

Terminator. They should have stopped at 2. As a runner up I nominate Dances with Blue Space Cats. None of the sequels have aired yet, but it's already a terrible idea. And Alien/Predator. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with most of what's already been said. But would like to add everything related to the X Men franchise and anything Batman post Michael Keaton. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go with the one that mocked so many horror ones. What was it, Scary Movie I think? Can't believe they did several after the first.. Edit: I'm also going to go with the sequels to Shrek, as well as Minions (the movie itself - Despicable Me was awesome, second was good, haven't gotten around to watching the third one yet).

I don't know. there's some things I'd like to see more of that have already had waaaaay too many sequels (startrek discovery) there are things that haven't had very many but I never want to see another of (men in black, independence day) there are things where the first film was a mistake and yet they made more (the current run of justice league movies, transformers) And then there's ones where I am so confused about what to say about them because the sequel was the good one so I'm not sure I want to close the door on more (terminator, predator, alien, mad max) and then there's ones where they need a reboot because they keep missing the premise of the material they're adapting (apple seed) 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second Fast & Furious, that franchised has been milked way too long just to grab money without putting much effort into the movies. Also, Survivor and all the other 'reality' shows on TV. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttuckerman Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 All, specially Batman post Adam West. Really all DC Movies. They really have not figured out how to do comic movies. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scorpion King movies. The Rock's character keeps getting played by actors who physically get further and further away from the Rock. Spiderman with Tobey Maquire. Tom Cruise movies (Mission Impossible, Jack Reacher, the Mummy reboot travesty...) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the Leprechaun series yet. There's been 8 films. The Leprechaun went to space in the 4th film. There's been two distinct reboots. The most recent film came out last year 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
