I always have considered 1 and 2 to be their own movie and not sequels,but those are the two greatest films of all time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porkchop Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Fast & Furious catalogue is incredible when you consider they rebooted the thing with the 4th and now are approaching 10/11 movies over a 20 plus year span. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I misread it as "where they should have gone on" as keep on going. Bond should keep on going and release the movies more frequently : Casino Royale 2006, Quantum of Solace 2008S, Skyfall 2012, Spectre 2015 and the latest iteration 2021 takes it to 5 movies in 15 years.

Edicion Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I also think they should have stopped the Rocky after he met Ivan Drago, and Rambo after Rambo 2, but Rambo 3 is not terribly terrible. The two final Rambos were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as for Mad Max, I was good with the first two with Gibson. As much as I love over the top 80's I couldn't get into Beyond Thunderdome. The reboot Fury Road was great and hopefully the follow up is just as fun. Unconfirmed rumors that Smithy was the feral child in the second movie @El Presidente, can you confirm 🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebhead Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I'd have to say Superman 3, 4 were rather odious...Superman 2 was a worthy sequel (although I can also say 1 and 2 were one movie). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElJavi76 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 +1 on the unnecessary Dumb and Dumberer (2). The other recent abomination was Coming 2 America. Certain comedies are an institution and provided laughs to an entire generation. Leave them be. Neither of these two releases were remotely funny. Shame! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Hayes Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Godfather 2 and Terminator 2 brilliant and in that order for me then ESB. Rocky and First Blood sequels not really up to scratch IMHO and include Predator sequels. I think Tarantino left it open for a sequel to Kill Bill when Uma killed an assassin in front of her child and said, "If you feel raw about it, I'll be waiting". BB v Nikita might be a bit cheesy but maybe not in the hands of Q. I am very much looking forward to Top Gun 2, just for the cliche's and the footage. Although, not really sequels, love fistful of dollars, few dollars more and good, bad, ugly. I thought the Bladerunner sequel was pretty good. Aliens was good too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While twilight wasn't aimed at my demographic I think they did a good job compared to the books. I couldn't make it past book 1, but watched all the movies for some reason. On the other hand I read the Lord of the rings but wasn't crazy about any of the movies. I read all the Harry Potter books, but again wasn't crazy about the movies. I wasn't that crazy about the books either (though I think books 5 and 6 were good). To me in general novellas do very well as movie adaptations. I think Fight Club and the Shawshank Redemption were definitely better as movies than as books. I've heard it said that death in Venice was similar. Speaking of books, Wiseguy/Goodfellas and After Hours/Carlito's Way were good adaptations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpm32 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 They should have made more Aubrey/Maturin movies like they’d planned. “Master and Commander” has slowly risen as a beloved classic over the years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
