This should be fun.

JayTL · 12-24-2020, 04:38 PM

None of them.

Give me bad movies along with the good.

Oh but Die Hard 5 needed to never happen

Sounds about right. Anything and everything Disney basically.

None. If the Rocky franchise ended with IV, then we wouldn't have Creed. If Final Destination ended with 3, then we wouldn't have had 5. See where I'm getting at?

That could be a statement for all the movies listed in the Original Post. I think 2020 has provided us with enough negative items.

Sometimes franchises have to hit a low point before being good again.

The Terminator series definitely comes to mind. To me, everything after 2 has been disappointing at best and embarrassing at worse.

One man's trash and all that...

Still say those movies have some fun action sequences, even if they are bad movies lol.

That's true. For my part, I rather enjoyed 3 at the time despite its flaws.

SeanJoyce · 12-24-2020, 05:00 PM

Home Alone, the first two were all we needed.

CreasyBear · 12-24-2020, 05:03 PM

Fast and Furious should have ended at Fast Five.
Terminator should have ended at T2.
Star Wars should have ended at ROTJ.
Transformers should have never happened.
MCU should have just been not a generic rinse and repeat formula.

Yeah. Imagine if they stopped at Batman & Robin.

Yeti4928 · 12-24-2020, 05:05 PM

The Exorcist: III
American Pie: American Wedding

Star Lord · 12-24-2020, 05:09 PM

Fast and Furious after Tokyo Drift.

Terminator after the second one.

DCEU after BvS.

daniels · 12-24-2020, 05:12 PM

Indiana Jones. Can't believe they're making another one.

UniSol GR77 · 12-24-2020, 05:18 PM

Star Wars: should have ended in 1983. 'Rogue One' the only "revival" movie.

Rocky: Part 4. Then Rocky Balboa.

Rambo: Part 4.

MCU: The Winter Soldier as last movie.
