Jurassic Park 2 - It wasn't bad but compared to how great the original was it was a huge disappointment. I actually kind of liked #3 though.

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.

 

I like Raiders for sure, but for some reason Temple (and even Last Crusade) resonate more with me. The story line, love interest, and side kick in Temple are more interesting, IMO. But maybe I will re-watch Raiders to see if I am undervaluing it.

Dumb and Dumberer

Jaws 2

Teen Wolf 2

Blues Brothers 2000 (are you friggin kidding me?)

Caddyshack 2

Why the hate for "Jaws 2"? Yes it is nowhere near the greatness of the original film, but it is a decent sequel.

I really like "Jurassic Park", but I do not consider it a great movie.

 

"The Lost World: Jurassic Park" does have it's moments, but I agree that it is disappointing.

 

"Jurassic Park III" is just a damn good fun time.

Nope. Not allowed to list that. There is no such movie. It never existed.

What do people think of the two Harrison Ford Jack Ryan movies? I always like them, but I wonder if people would want to include them on a failed sequel list or not. Either way, the Ben Affleck one would definitely go on my list.

Hannibal was a huge drop off from Silence of the Lambs. Of course...the bar was set ridiculously high with the first film.

I thought "Hannibal" was quite good.

That's fair...and, in retrospect, my comment is likely more positive of the first movie than negative about the second. Hannibal certainly was no Caddyshack 2.

 

Ultimately though, at least for me, Silence of the Lambs is an absolute must see movie... and I've enjoyed re-watching it over the course of time. With Hannibal, I thought it was worth the ticket, but I wouldn't be upset if I only saw it once. Not a bad flick...just not the masterpiece the first was. Just my 2 pennies.

That I agree with. There was no way that "Hannibal" would top "Silence".

 

Still, "Hannibal" was a good movie.
