Sequels
Do you all hate sequels like I do? I was wondering if there is any single sequel that is better than the first.
Name some you think are worthy. |
I like em if they actually got a meaning behind them, but like the new charmed series its just gay and not worth wasting my precious time watching it.
|
Rush Hour 2 was very well done over Rush Hour 1 in my opinion.
On the whole, most sequels either fall short or equal their previous movies. Alcar... |
The only sequels I can think of were worth the time watching was the Star Wars movies because its an on going epic and The Alien movies excludeing Alien Resurrection.
|
Final Destination 2 was by far one of the best sequels i've seen...
|
It all depends on what sequel it is. Some are better that the first (Aliens, The Godfather 2) and some are just pathetic.
I want to see Final Destination 2. The crazy movie lady in our paper gave it four stars. |
"Austin Powers in Goldmember" was the best Austin Powers out of the three in my opinion. I also thought "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" was better then "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring". It usually depends on what the director is after, more money or pleasing the fans.

Its more or less divided half and half. Some are good, some are bad. Aliens and LoTR2 are both decent examples of good movie sequals. Resident Evil/3 and Crash Bandicoot 2/3 are good examples of video game sequals. Books... well I have to read more books, but Harry Potter sequals have gotten better.

Predator 2
texas chainsaw masacre 2 There's probably more, but I'm too much of a lazy bitch to list them. I just rented the sequel to the fly, so I'll let you know how that was.. |

I laughed twice, the subtitles bit and the Hard Knock Life bit. LOTR does not count as the books and movies were all planned from the beginning. Unlike others that make the first one, make a lot of money, and decide then to make another. :

What? Games do not always get better!
Well, you may have a point about the LOTR thing.. I was about to use Epidosde II as an example of a technical sequals being worse, pre-written movies rely a bit on storyline. Though the acting and well respresentation can count, those weren't in LOTR2... Guh, did anything I just say make sense? |
Yeah
Some are good...
Goldmemeber and The Spy Who Shagged Me were fantastic. And you can't tell me that American Pie 2 wasn't better... Scary Movie 2 is another... The Omen trillogy... amen to that... so yeah... most sequals are cool... except the Free Willy and Beathoven ones... BURN THEM AAAAAALL!!! |
Re: Yeah

Picky... Picky... PICKY!!!
Picky... Picky... PICKY!!!
American Pie 2 was so much funnier. You only like the scene with Nadia cause you saw her breasts u perverted monkey (jk). There was heaps of funny scenes... 1) Jim glues himself to..... himself..... 2) Jim is at the hospital 3) Stifler Investigates the Lesbian Stronghold 4) Stifler's remarks 5) Stifler listening to Oz having phone sex with Heather Theres heaps more scenes in that movie. Austin Powers 1 to me wasn't all that funny compared to the next 2. Now then, you can't complain about the Omen Trillogy... Oh, and just to throw in a random remark... what about Waynes World 2 (:P:P:P) |
Re: Picky... Picky... PICKY!!!

And the first one was just better, a lot of reasons more than the one I stated. That's just the one I like best. :D :
I had to. What's the bet that I'M wrong. :
:
But all the reviews I've ever read say they just get worse. Especially the second. APPARANTLY. :
:
:o Some more! Give me more! |
We all have different opinions on what a good movie is. Something that seems like crap to one person may be good to another, it all depends on your standards. Probably the worst sequals Iv'e ever seen were Scream 2 and 3. They sucked in my opinion... they sucked bad.:| :|
**700th post!!** |
:p I've never seen either of the AP movies :p
A sequal to Scary Movie is a horrid idea... I've never seen the 2nd though. I think I get it though, many time I think sequals are only made if the first movie is popular, therefore the mood and atmossphere of the original is lost. Yea... thats probably it. *1600th post* :p |
