What movies should have never gotten sequels?

More like Prequels, but Star Wars. All the other movies are great. The prequels...need work to put it lightly.

I agree. Star Wars trilogy should've been left alone.

Agreed. I know there are people who love the prequels, but yeah, the original Trilogy was pretty close to perfect (with the slight Achilles heel of ROTJ) as it was.

Personally, out of all the things that I disliked about the prequels, trying to sciencify "the Force" with "midichlorians" is one of the most irritating. Oh yeah, and the Anakin was born from the force. And him building Threepio. Darn it, why did you get me started?

The Neverending Story. The second one wasn't actually bad, but the third one needs someone to go back in time and erase it from existence.

I would happily believe it was just a nightmare, but I don't think we're that lucky.

The second one at least had the virtue of being loosely based on the second half of the book, since the first one was only the first half. The third one was an egregious pile of crap with barely even a wave of relation to the book in the form of the Old Man of Wandering Mountain, who was good in his original setting, but not how he was used in that movie.

Also, can I mention how against the idea of the Childlike Empress to have her played by a teenager? That whole "eternal child" persona always implied to me that she was a perpetual pre-teen.

Star Wars, and I do mean sequels.

Robocop probably didn't need a Robocop 2 now that I think about it. It was written by Frank Miller so its satire was wayyyy less subtle.

Taken. Just...why?

Pirates of the Caribbean.

The first movie was great. It didn't need one sequel, let alone... however many there ended up being. Just let a good movie stay a good movie.

the worst thing a sequel can do is make you not want to watch it

The Ring, both the Japanese and American versions. Ring 2 was meh, Rings looks fucking awful.

Can I offer this up as a "why is this even a sequel!!" -Sadako vs. Kayako

Yes, the girl from the Ring vs the woman from the Grudge. Ugh.

Oh, it gets better - from those two shall arise a third, "Sayako"! Because, clearly neither are scary enough on their own now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sayako

FERNGULLY.

If you want to hurt, watch Ferngully then Ferngully 2 (I think 2 is still on netflix)

IMO Ferngully is a cartoon that you can watch as an adult without too much questioning how you could have such awful taste as a child. Ferngully 2 is just awful. It's weird fanfic written by someone who vaguely remembers watching Ferngully a long time ago and animated really terribly. Also VAs who are not Robin Williams should not try to imitate Robin Williams it's just painful.
