It's been a long while but I think back to the future manage to squeeze in two sequel without retcon the character.
Also Cloudy With a Chance of Meatball 2 is so guilty of this, they have to change so much to fit in the villain of the movie. Also Sam and Manny is somehow a resident of Swallow Falls that is now displaced, despite being based in New York and travel to Swallow Falls for the news coverage. The whole plot is mediocre too.
I mean it's based on a couple children's books about kids' imaginations running wild. It's been a long time since I've read either, but isn't a parent or grandparent telling the kids a story, and they're little kids so they believe all the stuff about giant food.
I remember loving the illustrations in each one though.
Except the whole "nobody calls me chicken" bit.
Yeah, that part is weird to be used as a plot device.
