How can we go with out mentioning:

- American Psycho 2. The first American Psycho was awesome on its own, and it's shamed by this awful sequel. At least Shatner is awesome, because otherwise I'd hate this movie forever.

- Ghostbusters 2. Okay, I like this one, but it's just not good at all.

- Friday The 13th, Parts 5 and 8. I'm a fan of the F13 movies, but I just want to punch these two bastards in the face.

- Return of the Living Dead 2. Ugh, just ugh.

- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3. Replacing Shredder with feudal Japan does not a good movie make, but bringing back Casey Jones made me happy.

At one point I thought Major League two was the worst sequel ever, then the third one came out.

Some honorable mentions:

Arthur 2

Return to Salem's Lot (or Salem's Lot II)

Jaws II, II *and* the oft-mentioned IV. Nothing close to the dramatic feel of the original hunt for the shark was ever recaptured.

I thought Mortal Combat II was way better than one (and I liked one).

"Endgame" was Highlander IV, and was actually pretty good (You've got to just give up on the whole continuity/internal logic thing, and then you can start to enjoy Highlander). Highlander III was "The Final Dimension" with Mario Van Peebles and was awful. Highlander II I don't even know if you can catagorize as "bad," just...bizarre. Really, really, bizzare. I always wonder what the first draft of that script looked like. Everything else "Highlander" completely ignores any- and everything about that movie.

Godfather III gets put on the list because it was blah (and 4 hours of blah). Its almost like Disc 3 of the Flair DVD, only without the Royal Rumble.
Someone had to steal Weekend at Bernies 2 and Major League 3.
Problem Child 2 might be able to stay off this list, but any of the subsequent one's after even John Ritter bailed out are painful.

I couldn't resist this thread because there are a few that I hated as well....

Next Friday and Friday After Next...
Predator 2...
Leprechaun and ANY sequel in this series...
Mannequin.... Yes, there was a sequel to that.
Problem Child...

Ugh. That's all I want to think about right now. But, I think I am the only person in the world that actually likes Grease 2 better than the original. Go figure.

You know what, I'm going to throw "American Wedding" in there. The best way to describe this movie is kind of a coda. It's essentially could have been done in a 30 second "what ever happened to..." segment at the end of American Pie Two. Plus, how do you have a movie with 3 of the 4 main characters from the first movie not in it, and the 4th playing a supporting role worthy of Toto in Wizard of Oz?

Unless I missed it, I am really surprised no one mentioned Beverly Hills Cop III. It was a whole new level of bad - not even funny-bad.

I'll say "Smokey and the Bandit" II and III. The first one wasn't any great shakes (except as dumb, reeks of 70s in the best and worst ways, kinda fun) but the second and third one are great examples of why stretching out a one-joke movie over a triology is a bad bad idea.

Something the makers of "Dumb and Dumberer" could have stood to learn.

Dumb and Dumberer.

I got free passes to that movie, and I still want my $7 back. Not to mention the 2 1/2 hours of my life back. That was painful.

second Mortal Kombat 2; that was the biggest disappointment for me. If they make a third or fourth like Highlander, I'd recommend they just skip to the last one.

I would like to add:

Any of the Bruce Lee movies that claim to be sequels but were made after he passed away, such as Touch of Death; they have clips of his previous work and interviews but the rest of the film is unwatchable.

Ditto with the Pink Panther series after Peter Sellers passes away.

Star Trek movies have that alternating good-bad tradition, but the last one was clearly for trekkies and I couldn't bear to watch through it.

It's hard to put a finger on the tens of Disney movie straight-to-video sequels. They just sound awful yet maybe for family viewing they are decent enough. Anyone care to take a shot at those??

I cannot believe you just said that. Evil Dead 2? EVIL DEAD FUCKING 2?!?!?!

Ow ow ow. My head hurts.

The Evil Dead was baaaaad. Not scary. Baaaaaad. Like 'raped by an evil tree' bad. Evil Dead 2 was made as a spoof of the first one because it was so bad. And Evil Dead 2 is the best horror movie ever made. Oh man, you make me hurt inside.

See I have the opinion that what you said refers to Evil Dead 3 compared to 2.

If 2 was supposed to be a spoof, then it was a half arsed spoof and thus still crap, IMO

Lion King 2: Not horrible, definitely nowhere near as good as the first.
Lion King 1 1/2: Looks worse than 2.
Aladdin 2 (Return of Jafar): Pretty good, some would say better than the first.
Aladdin 3 (King of Theives): Not so good.
Little Mermaid 2: Crap.
Cinderella 2: Also crap.
Land Before Time 4-whatever we're on: Started bad, has gotten progressively worse and worse and worse and is now painful and insulting to the first three movies which are pretty good.
Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars: OK, not anywhere near the first.
Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue: Little worse than BLTGTM.
Toy Story 2: Pretty good, not quite as good as the original.

The only ones that pass Seigel's sequel test (if you only saw the sequel, would you want a sequel) are Aladdin: Return of Jafar and Toy Story 2. Other sequels:

Lethal Weapon 2: Not quite as good as 1
Lethal Weapon 3: Better than 2, my favorite of the series
Lethal Weapon 4: Slightly worse than 2
Star Wars 1 (Phantom Menace): Oy. Not as fun as A New Hope (the most fun), not quite as good as Return of the Jedi (the least good).
Star Wars 2 (Attack of Clones): Not as fun as Phantom Menace, better (in overall quality) than Return of the Jedi.
Star Trek 2 (Wrath of Khan): Best Star Trek movie ever.
Star Trek 3 (Search for Spock): Not as good as the first.
Star Trek 4 (Journey Home): Slightly better than 3, still worse than 1.
Star Trek 5 (Whatever the Subtitle Was): Worst Ster Trek movie ever.
Star Trek 6 (Undiscovered Country): 2nd best Star Trek movie ever.

Speaking of Star Trek movies:

Star Trek Generations was tripe and crap. Yup. Both combined. It would take ages to explain why. (They killed Captain Kirk!!!! Need I say more?!?)

Star Trek First Contact was AWESOME in so many ways. Just the scene alone in the beginning stages of the movie where Worf is commanding the Defiant, getting hunted down by Borg, and gets saved by Enterprise E was enough to go "HELL YEAH!!!! This movie's the SH!T!!!"

Star Trek Insurrection didn't have that great a plot, but the special effects were great, and the more abrupt ending of the movie lent overall to its feel.

I haven't seen Nemesis yet, so I can't say, but if that main villain dude's supposed to be Picard's clone or whatever, why couldn't they have gotten Sean Connery to play that role? That would've been cool!


And I'll probably get slapped in the gums for this, but as bad as Cruel Intentions II was, I liked it. It was so campy, over the top, and just awful that I enjoyed it. It just made fun of the first one in so many ways that I couldn't help but feel guilty pleasure about it.

Let the gum-slappin's begin... :)

The original Smokey and the Bandit ruled. It has been so horribly edited for its multi-million viewings on TBS/TNT, that many of the great laugh lines have been destroyed. I don't think Jackie Gleason is actually on the soundrack, as his entire dialouge was over dubbed by that asshole who did the voice of the "new Fred Flinstone" for those shitty 70's cartoons.

Smokey and the Bandit II was awful, but at least it had Dom DeLuise. There's some extremely bizarre sub-plot where Gleason plays 3 roles.

Smokey and the Bandit III is beyond horrible.

First of all, Burt Reynolds isn't even in it.

Secondly, the highlight of the movie is Jerry Reed running around babbling, "I'm gonna be the Bandit! I"M GONNA BE THE BANDIT!!"

They strap some stuffed shark on top of Gleason's car and the hilarity ensues. They don't even use the original car, but some 1983 F-body shitbox and off they go.

Brutal.

Totally agree with the Friday sequels, Cube should have realized that replacing the animated Tucker with that POS Epps was never EVERRRRRRRRR gonna work. They should have put Ezal in the sequels at some point (he was my favorite sub character).

How in god's name can you say Predator 2?!?! It wasn't the best sequel ever but it was a pretty sweet movie, the ending was wicked cool with Glover standing there with all the Predators around and him just looking around with this "I'm fucked" look. Classic.
