Most unnecessary sequel?

[CapnGod]

Crank 2, the first one was ridiculous enough (Don't take me wrong, it was pretty good), But this next one is looking pretty stupid... HE DIED AT THE END OF THE FIRST ONE. THERE IS NO WAY HE SURVIVED JUMPING OUT OF A HELICOPTER OVER A MILE HIGH OFF THE GROUND!!!

I disagree. While the getting up and going right after are completely improbable, I have here evidence that he could survive. Number seven on this list:

I'm just saying that it provides a semi-plausible basis for continuing the story. And hell, it's a beer and a shot movie anyway.

She was in the back of the plane when it crashed, not hitting a car and then bouncing off of it on then landing hard again. Good point bringing that up though.

I'll agree that she was in the plane when it crashed. But being in a plane that crashed FROM 33,000 FEET AND LIVING is pretty damned impressive. I'm sure bouncing around in the plane would've felt, you know, pretty awful.

High School Musical sequels...in fact, I condemn all of them. Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 seems unnecessary, but It's still one of my most anticipated games of the year, only 3 more days until the EU release date!

Oh, and also The Dark Knight...okay, only joking.

The New Testament

OH SNAP

No, see, that was the most unnecessary sequel to the most unnecessary original.

The Transporter was a perfectly serviceable dumb action movie, but everybody should have forgotten about it by the time the sequel came out. Now that the third one's coming out, all anybody remembers is how absolutely god-awful the second one was.

The only thing good about the third one was it fit the title, but even that wasn't that great. And going way back, there should have only been one land before time, they pushed it with 2, and i gave up counting after three.

jeepers creepers 2. the first one was pretty bad, but the second, jesus christ. i bought a bottle of rum to watch the thing and by half way through the rum was gone, and even then it wasn't funny

Films... hmm...
I didn't like the end to The Bourne Ultimatum, considering that he jumped off a seven story building and lived. I really wish that he had died. It would have been more dramatic. But, it gets forgiven for ACTUALLY HAVING A PLOTLINE

Last I heard Matt Daemon was considering scripts for the 4th bourne film but they said it was unlikely unless he found a really good one

Godfather 3

or TMNT 3

or Resident Evil Apacolypse

or The sequal to the DBZ BRoly movies, (Okay the second one was fine, 3rd was unessesary)

or Anything other than Enders Game(could be books to)

or AVP: Requim

or Predator 2 on that matter

I thought Apocalypse was quite faithful to the games. Extinction was utterly apalling though, it wasn't like any of the games, and was just an excuse to have a myriad of swordfights.

Ok people, why have none of you said Pirates yet?
Pirates 1 is one of the greatest films of our generation.
Pirates 2 was not by any means worthy of even being considered a Johnny Depp film.

Uhm, care to explain why the hate towards Pirates of the Caribbean 2? It was a pretty good movie, sure not has good has the first one but still it was pretty good.

For me, it would have to be Men in Black 2. Why there was the need of any sequel to an already great movie? The sequel was just plain dumb, yet it was mildly entertaining.

Personally I vote Indiana Jones, the trilogy was fine the way it was. Why make another?

This, I agree with. I like to pretend the fourth one never happened.

*Cough* Which it didn't.

stupid, or super bad ass?

 

[AssassinX66]

Star Wars episodes 1-3. We had enough storyline with 4-6. The prequels were just unnecessary.

 

[The Bandit]

The New Testament

OH SNAP

/thread

Yes. God, I love it.

 

[Heroic One]

Back to the Future 2.

 

[DannyDamage]

Pretty much all of them post year 2002, Marvel sequels included.

 

[wewontdie11]

Shrek 3. Or to give it its proper title "Shrek 3: Over the hill actors try to squeeze the last dribbles of cash from the industry"

 

[AndyVale]

Cube Zero. One was classic, two was interesting and Zero just couldn't follow up.

Is 'follow up' the right term to use for a prequel?

Nintendo. When did THEY last innovate?

I assume thats sarcasm?

 

[wowcrendor]

Empire Earth 3. EE2 destroyed the franchise enough by itself, and EE3 pretty much kicked it while it was on the ground.

 

[Maze1125]

My vote goes for the straight to DVD Disney sequels too.

And what's with all the Back to the Future 2 hate?
For a start the last two movies were originally intended to be one movie but it was far too long and so, rather than horribly cut it down to size, they split it into two.
So, you shouldn't really consider the second movie without considering the third too.

Nintendo. When did THEY last innovate?

When they made the Wii.

 

[MindPhish]

Back to the Future 2

Should not have happened.

Makes me think of another from about that time.....

Teen Wolf Too, this and Back to the Future 2 should go into the same garbage can.

The second Ace Ventura movie. The first was funny, and wasn't afraid to be a little adult at times - like when Jim Carrey bangs Courtney Cox, for example - the second was a second-rate kid's film.

On the subject of Jim Carrey, the second Mask film. I know it didn't have Carry in it, but still. It was shit.
