I'm happy for any movie series to continue, because there are fans of virtually any series of movies. If you stop liking a series you can stop watching it, but others may enjoy the continuation of it. It's not like there is a shortage of other stuff to watch instead if you don't like something.

That said I can understand if a series has a story you regard as perfectly told not needing any more additions. But again, you don't have to watch any more if you don't want to.

The best reason, in my opinion, for wanting a series or franchise to end, would be if it was tying up the talents and time of creators/perfromers you would rather were working on something else. For example, There might be people who hate the Star Wars prequels who wish George Lucas had left it at the original trilogy and made different films instead. Or maybe James Cameron fans who didn't like Avatar aren't looking forward to more of those and wish he'd make something else. There might be a Daniel Craig super fan who always hated James Bond movies and felt sick upon learning he was going to be spending years in the role instead of making more unrelated films than he has had time for. That I get, even if I personally enjoyed all of the examples I mentioned.

Of course there is. Here's an example:

"Personally I thought the movie was trash, I hated it and found nothing of value in it whatsoever. I loathed everything about it, it bored me in some places, and actively offended me in others. The only surprises I had in the movie were from just how bad I thought it was. However, I'm glad others enjoyed it more than I did, and good luck to anyone who found the worth or entertainment from it that was sorely lacking from my point of view."

Here's another, less verbose example:

"I think it's trash. IMHO."
