general media Movies (and other media) that should’ve never had sequels

[Brony Number 42 9,898]

Totally unnecessary. They changed the whole tone of his character.

Well Terminator 2 (the terminator franchise) wouldn't count in this topic as it's supposed to be a franchise you felt should've been one and done. Terminator 2 is a sequel. You're not the only one who put it here tho. 

If one felt that Terminator should've stopped after the first film then that counts. 

I thought it was about movies in general; like saying that everything after 2 was shit. my bad then.

Interestingly, I have only seen the first one. I am glad I did!

 

• Mortal Kombat

But only because I know how bad the sequels were. Imagine if they were good!

Some movies I can think of that haven't been mentioned:

• Iron Man (I mean Iron Man 2 & 3, not necessarily other MCU movies)

Nevertheless, they were AWESOME! I love me some Tony Stark!

Homeward Bound

 

Not a fan of "Delilah Chance"? 

 Hmm...I didn't like "Monsters University" nearly as much as the original "Monsters, Inc." and I also am not a fan of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III".

Sorry, but romantic subplots don't solve everything. And following up from the high stakes of the first film was always going to be a difficult ask. Also a city environment was too much of a diversion from the original Incredible Journey.

It was pretty weak, I also didn't like how much of a jerk Jamie (Chance's owner.) was. 

 

Overall it was passable, but it isn't something I would watch a lot like the original Homeward Bound or even "The Incredible Journey" (1963) 

 

which, Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey was based off of. 

 

I remember giving up on "The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause" pretty quickly, too.

Independence Day, no doubt. Emmerich should have made ID a one-shot film and that's it, nothing else; he literally had a third film planned. The sequel released in 2016 was absolute disaster. Should have left things as is. Will Smith had good reason to not sign onto the project.

Yeah, RDJ's swagger really carried those movies. They aren't as good as the first but I always have a fun time with them(I actually think 3 is really underappreciated)

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,293]

All the Christopher Reeve Superman movies after the second movie (1980), including the Brandon Routh Superman Returns (2006), given how weird they were  

[Paleopony 690]

Monsters Inc, Frozen, Home Alone, Jaws, Beauty and the Beast, Balto, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Ferngully: The Last Rainforest.

[Tom Gallagher 33,521]

Jaws. You can’t improve on what was perfect.

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

Back to the Future

The sequels were so unnecessary and way too cheesy for me compared to the original. They used a lot of the same tropes over and over again too

Facts. Jaws 2 wasn't terrible, but far from great, Jaws 3 was stupid schlock, and Jaws 4 is one of the worst films ever made (Though so bad it's good at times).

We really only needed one Jurassic Park movie.

Iron Man really needs a good villain to fight.
