What movie franchise gets worse with each new film?
(thelemmy.club)
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.
I can respect the fourth one. Sure, it was a terrible movie but it feels like a deliberate piss take on the idea of reviving the franchise. And I can respect that.
I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking that. It was so bad, so so bad... But yeah I couldn't help but feel the wachowski sister that did it (if I'm not wrong the other one didn't participate) just dit it to spite the studio for trying to make a moneygrab movie.
Having said that, despite the 2nd and 3rd movies not being great by any means compared to the first one, I do still enjoy them, like a guilty pleasure kinda thing.
The 2nd and 3rd ones are still fun, action-packed movies with ground-breaking effects. The Matrix set an impossibly high bar and it was not originally planned to be a sequel, let alone a trilogy. They also whipped them together much faster, so in that context, I think they did a great job.
Huh. Douglas Adams did something similar when his publisher kept pressuring him to make another Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book.
"STOP MAKING ME WRITE THESE"
IIRC in the first half hour they explicitly shit talk the execs wanting a sequel so it's quite obvious it's a middle finger to Warner bros.
There are four of them ?
unfortunately, yes.
Friend, let me save you a couple of hours and a lot of pain.
There are only 3.
Literally.
The first thing I thought after I finished watching the 4th one, was that it didn't happen.
