Dragonborn10 Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Please enjoy a little break from the off-season and play along... Please list what you think is the biggest drop-off from an original movie to it's sequel... While there are many horrible movie sequels. I think the largest gap is between Caddyshack and Caddyshack 2. The sequel is routinely in the top 10 worst of all time lists and the original is often listed in top 10 sports movies. Your choice?
Gray Beard Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Eddie and the Cruisers Indana Jones and the Temple of Doom was not as good as Raiders of the Lost Ark, but then Indana Jones and the Last Crusade was pretty good. Edited May 11, 2013 by Gray Beard
Hazed and Amuzed Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) American Psycho 2 and Boondock Saints 2 were abortions compared to the originals. Edited May 11, 2013 by Hazed and Amuzed
metzelaars_lives Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Eddie and the Cruisers Indana Jones and the Temple of Doom was not as good as Raiders of the Lost Ark, but then Indana Jones and the Last Crusade was pretty good. Temple of Doom is underrated and Last Crusade is overrated. Raiders is far and away the best but I actually think Temple of Doom and Last Crusade are pretty close. They're both good. Either way, unless you're bringing up Crystal Skull, which was garbage, then Indiana Jones should not be mentioned in this post. And ya know what? Jaws 2 aint even half bad either. Now Jaws 3? That is a horrendous film. OK, let's get down to business: Major League 2 is complete and utter garbage. It is offensively and insultingly bad. Teen Wolf Too was also a huge letdown. Revenge of the Nerds 2 is pretty bad, although it has its moments. And as I've gotten older I've realized that Back to the Future 2 and 3 kind of suck too. Used to kind of like them as kids but they have not stood the test of time. Greatest sequel of all time? FUBAR 2. Better than the original. If you don't know about the FUBAR franchise, just order them off ebay or amazon and thank me later. You're welcome. Edited May 11, 2013 by metzelaars_lives

Heitz Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 The Matrix 2 and 3. Caddyshack 2 is so bad it's unwatchable though, so it still wins...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Eddie and the Cruisers Indana Jones and the Temple of Doom was not as good as Raiders of the Lost Ark, but then Indana Jones and the Last Crusade was pretty good. Seriously? Temple of Doom is the best one in the trilogy!!
metzelaars_lives Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Seriously? Temple of Doom is the best one in the trilogy!! I wouldn't go around telling too many people you feel that way. You are aware that Raiders of the Lost Ark is fairly high on the American Film Institute's greatest films of all time? I like Temple of Doom, but you need to re-watch Raiders of the Lost Ark my friend. Edited May 11, 2013 by metzelaars_lives
Just in Atlanta Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Star Wars: Episode 1, The Phantom Menace. Meet the Fockers. Staying Alive.
metzelaars_lives Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Star Wars: Episode 1, The Phantom Menace. Meet the Fockers. Staying Alive. Good call on Meet the Fockers. That movie sucked.
metzelaars_lives Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) And this is not on Off The Wall why? Na na na na poo poo, I'm telling the teacher. This is the most entertaining thread on here in a while. Just let it be man. Edited May 11, 2013 by metzelaars_lives
machine gun kelly Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Jaws 2! Weekend at Bernies 2. Then again Weekend at Bernies sucked too.
metzelaars_lives Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Jaws 2! Weekend at Bernies 2. Then again Weekend at Bernies sucked too. You're crazy man. Jaws 2 and Weekend at Bernies are two solid films. Jaws 2 was on last night when I got home from the bar. It's a good flick. Obviously a shell of the first one, but definitely worth watching if you've never seen it.
Kkspike Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Porkys 2 was bad,real bad. Debbie dose Dallas was really good cult film. Debbie dose Dallas again was bad acting.
Acantha Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Porkys 2 was bad,real bad. That was the first thing I thought of too.
Gray Beard Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Grease? I agree. You could also say Staying Alive as a sequal to Saturday Night Fever.
