Quoted from Mr. Blonde

Worst:

Spider-Man 2-3




I don't ever hear people getting on "Spiderman 2" for being bad.  Most people say it's the best of the trilogy.  What didn't you like about it?

I'm going out on a limb here but MJ may have something to do with it. She bothers me even in the comics. I just hate the character even after they get married and live together.

And the fact that somehow in three movies she is always abducted. She is a plot point for Spider-man to fight the villain and frankly if they can never be together because she would be in danger yet she's always in danger even when they aren't together.

It goes beyond a tragic love story and you just want her to die already.

Agreed.

Doc Ock was so great though. I mean, Alfred Molina?  C'mon!

The action was also really well done in that film.  I don't know, I left a lot more satisfied than when I saw S3.

What good are choices if they're all bad?

To be perfectly honest, I didn't really care for any of them.

Koepp and his hack-ness saved the original from being too campy.

I'm not exactly sure why I hated the second one, but I was dying while watching it. It was either because of boredom or cliches, or something.

And, 3, yeah...

Someone here reminded me of one I completely forgot about. Crank: High Voltage. After enjoying the first one a lot (despite horrendous CGI), this one was absolutely terrible.

I just have to really commend all the people behind these wonderful films. The writing, acting, production values...just everything...all top notch.  If only one of us could come up with a brilliant idea like the ones behind these stellar films....oh, to dream...

Best sequels --

Rocky 2
Rocky 4
Rambo 2
Rambo 3
Rambo 4
Karate Kid 3
Troll 2 (best movie ever made)
Day of the Dead
Halloween 2
Halloween 3
Silent night deadly night 2
Robo Cop 2
Terminator 2



Worst sequels --

After Death aka Zombie 4 - but not really zombie 4 or even a part of the series.
Zombie 5
Zombie 3
Killjoy 2
All the leprechaun follow ups
All the Child's play follow ups
All the Hell raiser follow ups
All the Halloweens after 2
All the final Destinations, including the 1st one
Saw and all it's follow ups
Hostel and all its follow ups
The ring and all its follow ups
Evil Dead 2
Army of Darkness


You know, I could go on and on and on... but what's the point. 90% of all movies should've never been made. There really is only 10% of any certain demograph of movies that are viably good and worth owning. Most people who scour bargain bins, used dvd shops and other outlets such as Pawn shops to buy DVD's to add to their collection are only doing it because they're missing something in their lives and they feel the more they have the more they can use to plug up the vast holes missing in their lives.

I can't say I agree with BTTF sequels being that bad either.

Highlander 2 & 3 and all the bloody rest of it, apart from the first, which is a classic in my humble. Now those were shitey sequels. I to think I paid cash. In a cinema. Jehusus.

I love the Saw films. For some reason I've found them just about the most enjoyable films from the last few years. The second one in particular I thought was excellent.


Evil Dead 2 is one of the greatest films ever made.

You sir, disappoint me. I can forgive you for not liking saw, but Evil Dead 2 is a veritable masterpiece.  >
