The first Jurassic Park movie is all time one of the greatest films ever made with the special effects still holding up to this day. The 2nd film was still very enjoyable in my opinion but it was just a cookie cutter sequel not bad, not good. The 3rd film wasn’t great at all. But compared to the rest of the series the 3rd film is basically the godfather.

As another personal pick the 1st blade movie is a hood classic good. The other 2 not so much.

Transformers, the Bay ones.

You can argue that the very first one was an honest attempt. But things immediately goes down hill once you get to Revenge of the Fallen. And it just doubles down and doubles down every entry that you would think it is a contest of how many stupid ideas can they get away with and do get away with per entry. I got off at Dark of the Moon because I've seen enough stupid that I didn't care of the other ones.

The Hobbit Trilogy

If you continued on, like I did, into the trilogy of this series, you'll know. An unnecessary, shoe-horned angle of a dwarf and a elf affection. I don't need to say more.

I would argue against that. Vehemently.

I enjoyed the 4 hour Hobbit fanedit though I cannot remember which, or the name

There are several I think, I really enjoyed the one by Maple Films.

I watched the M4 and the Tolkien cut and while the M4 version has done really nice changes, it cuts out so much that many scenes are confusing. The Tolkien cut has a few non-book scenes left in just for the rest to make note sense.

Tbh, the first Transformers is one of my favorite watch-it-when-it-rains-blockbuster, the story is not that bad and the score is just perfect.
