Worst Movie Sequels.

If this thread already exists, admins can lock it.

We all know that sequels aren't as good as the original. This is a thread to list the worst sequels ever. Here are sequels, that I think are terrible:

All the Halloween sequels after Halloween 2
Rocky 5
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3
Mean Girls 2 (it's as bad as the first)
Rambo 3
Never Ending Story 3
Home Alone 2
Legend of NIHM 2
The entire Twilight series
The entire Star Trek series (my opinion)
Terminator Salvation
Jaws 3-D
Jaws the Revenge
Rebirth of Mothra 2
Alien Resurrection
Alien vs Predator 2
Leatherface: the Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3. (the pussy version of the original)
Superman IV: The Quest For Peace
What sequels do you hate?

what's wrong with halloween 3?

(awaits obvious answer)

what's wrong with halloween 3?

(awaits obvious answer)

People hate Halloween 3 because it has nothing to do with the first 2 Halloween films that came before it and has nothing to do with all the other Halloween films that came after it and it has NO Michael Myers

[mecha-gino]

Son of the mask, must I say more?

[Tohosaurus]

Rocky 5
Rambo 3
Terminator Salvation
Jaws 3-D
Jaws the Revenge
Rebirth of Mothra 2

I'll take these and add King Kong Lives, Godzilla Raids Again (obviously) for starters. Also, Starship Troopers 2.

I do disagree that sequels are not as good as the films they are succeeding. It's often the case, sure.

[Sydney Aradi]

and while we're on the topic of sequels I'll add this:

Superman 3 (more like Richard Pryor & Superman)
The Matrix sequels
Jaws sequels
Home Alone 3
Twilight series
Superman 4
Superman Returns (this is like watching grass grow)
Halloween 20 Years Later (my 2nd least favorite Halloween film overall, it takes itself way, way too seriously)

Halloween VI: Curse of Michael Myers (least favorite Halloween film)
Godzilla Raids Again
Rebirth of Mothra 2

the halloween films were originally supposed to be a different story that takes place on halloween each film, kinda friday the 13th. on it's own, halloween 3 was pretty cool, imo. you just have to look past the 'no michael myers' thing.

Which I do with Halloween 3. Sure its not great as the first 2 Halloween films but at least it tries to do something different from the usual Michael Myers stuff

The whole Twilight series
The whole Harry Potter series
The whole Star Trek series

[UltramanGoji]

I'm surprised no one mentioned The Neverending Story 3.

Nostalgia Critic already did a big review on it, so I'll just cut to the chase.

This film sucks. Period.

[Ethan]

The Concorde... Airport '79 is easily the worst sequel ever made. No other film is as removed from its predecesors as this one.

[Giga Kaiju]

Son Of Mask
King Kong Lives
Batman and Robin
Mortal Kombat Anhilihation
Jaws 4: The Revenge
X-Men 3

Halloween 3: SOTW...Its not that bad, just because it didnt had Michael Myers it makes it a horrible movie.
I actually liked it (Not as much as the first two obviously but to some point it was Original)

[wrongnote85]

boondock saints 2
caligula 2
jaws 5 (you read that right)

[DaikaijuSokogeki!]

I personally think Halloween III is light years better than the rather boring Halloween II, but that's probably just me...

My list:

Kamen Rider The Next
Batman & Robin
X-Men: The Last Stand
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
King Kong Lives
Monster X Strikes Back: Attack the G8 Summit!
Godzilla: Final Wars
Godzilla X Megaguirus: G-Eradication Operation
Naruto Shippuden: The Movie

There are worse. Like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3.

There are worse. Like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3.

Sorry, but no.

The complete rape of a film's mythology > Everything else (yes, even Twilight).
