ok yea star wars needs sequels because its in essence all one movie.

and yes its about time there was another freakin Indiana Jones.... cause those movies just plain rule.

Blade II was good.

Bond movies are not sequels. It's a series of books, you know, Ian Fleming.

BUT lets take a look at the GOOD series/sequel movies that have come out!

Indiana Jones Trilogy
Beverly Hills Cop Trilogy
Godfather Trilogy
Star Wars Trilogy
Terminator 1/2
Manhunter/Silence Of The Lambs/ Hannibal
American Pie 1/2
Puppetmaster Series

anyone got any others to add?

You forgot Terminator 3, Loved the first two.
Heres some other bad movies and sequils
Scream 2
I know what you did last summer 12

Damn after looking at all these movies I need a good funny movie. Where's Chris Farley when you need him!!!!!!

sequels are just an easy way to make more money. you don't need to come up with a new idea, you already have the characters developed and all you have to do is write another little story. it's even easier if the first movie was a success, because then people will come watch the sequels, no matter what you write/make.

good sequels are exceptions (I agree with the ones above), usually the first movie is the best, because it's original and less predictable.

I need to see more Police Academy movies!!!!!!!!

Six just isn't enough. I miss those lovable characters.

I assume you were kidding, but if you're not there's a Police Academy series you might enjoy. I liked the first Police academy, but after that I'd seen enough of those 'loveable characters'.

Yeah, i was.
But they were lovable. especially the guy that made those funny noise.
How come he didn't become a huge star. Its a shame. :cry:

I think I saw him in a couple of other movies, but I guess they don't need him anymore, because they have better sound effects nowadays.

All sequels most likley do suck besides for Star Wars because they are amazing and cannot be matched. :mrgreen:

What about the great police academy movies?? :mad:

Sequels are getting better than what they used to be. It just depends, some still really suck, others are more enjoyable.

Disney will never stop!!! They will have Cinderella using a walker before they stop making sequels. Oh wait I am sorry about 30 years after a movie the characters are exactly the same. :lol:
