You have sooo hit the nail on the head! I’m with you on all of these! Another one I thought of was the second Speed movie. I loved the first one (although my husband loves to harrass me about it) but the second was just lame.

I have been trying to come up with a bad sequel not already mentioned for 2 days. And the best (worst) I can come up with is that second Charlie Brown Christmas movie they came out with about wanting a dog.

I guess this is what I get for waiting until evening to read everyone’s postings and comment, because almost all of the really crappy sequels have been named. The only other sequel that I can think of is the sequel to “Get Shorty” – “Be Cool.” Completely lame, horrible the whole way through. I remember being really mad that I paid good money to see it in theater. To make it even worse, my BIL gave the movie to hubby that year for Christmas >:(

I have to add any Disney sequel ie: Aladdin 2, The Little Mermaid 2, Beauty and the Beast 2, etc. Most Disney films are classic; why do they have to ruin them by making stupid sequels?

I agree with you 100%! why do they feel the need to do sequels to SO MANY good movies! I LOVED look who’s talking, and while i was still pretty young when it came out, i was stoked to see the 2nd… and even the 3rd, hoping and praying that it would be better than the 2nd… they just womped!

A big AMEN to your post. It’s ridiculous what people will do to make when they think they can make a quick buck.

Great list!! I haven’t seen all the ones you mentioned but I will say that I had to turn off Jurassic Park 3 halfway through because it was so terrible. And I hardly ever turn a movie off. Another sequel that didn’t make it to your list that I thought was horrible was the Ocean’s 12 and 13. Terrible!! They couldn’t even be saved by all that eye candy!

Thanks for playing along!

While I LOVED Airplane (a classic in our family)…Airplane II *sucked*

And while The Fox and the Hound made it onto my list of scary Disney movies, The Fox and the Hound 2 was actually really cute!

Good choices! I watched Jurassic Park 3 again the other day just to laugh at how absurd it is. I heard there might a fourth?!?!
