Sequels can kick ass as musch as the first (T2) or be just plain horrible (most sequels ever made). So I've decided to make a list of my least favorite sequels.

-American Werewolf in Paris (the sequel no asked for! what's the deal with the the whole eating hearts thing?)

-Batman and Robin (don't get me started)

-Rocky 2-whatever (some more lame sequels. jeez the was the point of these?)

-Fly 2 (long, stupid, boring.)

-Scream 2+3 ( 'course it's pretty hard to make a sequel to a movie that sucked monkey balls to start with)

-Blair Witch 2 ( i like the first one. it was different from all the other horror movies coming out at the same time. blair witch 2 was just like any other stupid hollywood horror movie. bastards)

-Nutty Professer 2 ( goog god! make it stop! for the love of god, move on)

Anywho, the future of sequels dosen't look too good. With flicks like Scary Movie 2 and Rocky 6 (i'm serious) in the works. Sigh, when will they learn?

Anything after First Blood really sucked(in Alien Nation, set in teh 90's but filmed in the 80's, they showed a moive markee with Rambo VI!   Talk about natmarish visions and future distopias!).  I liked First Blood, it was sort of a take on the Vietnam War up  to the Tet Offensive(after whichs the VC were pretty much wiped out), and a good action movie.  Plus, unlike the next two I'm pretty sure Stalone had ntohing to do with FB's script.  Only redeeming qualities of Rambo II, and III was Richard Crenna whose Trautman character was just to cool.  

Planet of the Apes.  THe sequals were fun to watch but just got sillier right to the end.  Note, in Battle for the Planet of the Apes teh Gorillas short swords are actually WWI and WWII 16 inch blade bayonets, worth about $150 on todays market.  

Temple of Doom---Again, fun to watch, but lets just face facts

As for future bad sequals, I remember a flap awhile back about a second Easy Rider, a seq, NOT a remake.  I guess Billy or Captain America dont die but go into comas and wake up 30+ years into the future or something.

How could you possibly miss Highlander 2, winner for the most precipitous drop in quality between original and sequel?

They'll never bloody learn until people stop paying money to see them. One of the most pointless was surely Predator 2.

The Last Seduction 2 (do I need to explain?)
Scorned 2

Police Academy 6-8.  What a bizarre cosmos we live in when the quality of the franchise (such as it was) depends on the presence of Steve Guttenburg.

I remember hearing somewhere that the late, great Michael O'Donoghue (who made the early SNL and National Lampoon what they were) penned an Easy Rider sequel back in the 70s or 80s. It's a shame the only two O'Donoghue scripts to ever get made were Scrooged and Mr. Mike's Mondo Video (and hardly anyone's heard of the latter)...

"Easy Rider 2" will unite the sons of the Nicholson and Fonda characters, searching for Nicholson's killer after they find out Fonda--in jail for the murder all these years--was framed. I kid you not.

Favorite Useless Sequel: "Beyond The Poseidon Adventure." Yow, talk about "been there, done that." It would be easier to list sequels that DIDN'T swallow.

Halloween 3
Jason goes to hell
the upcoming Jason X

They all sucked or are going to suck.

C'mon, you didn't like ROCKY III?

"Clubber Lang, what do you predict for this fight?"
"I predict pain."

Man, I love ROCKY III.  Of course, I'm a huge Mr. T fan.

Also, this is an interesting entry into the remake argument.  What do people think of Cronenberg's FLY remake?  I think it's one of the most disgusting and viscerally horrifying movies I've ever seen.  Useless remake of a classic?

Re: Cronenberg's "The Fly;" there is an exception to every rule, although this one's an exception to the "remake" rule, not the "sequel" rule. I like this version better. "The Fly II" had some effective moments, but generally it is NOT an exception to the "sequel" rule (sequels usually blow).

Coming soon to a theatre near you:

"He STILL Knows You're Alone"
"Proctologist of Chucky"
"Pearl Harbor 2001"
"Son of The Animal"
"Hard Rain II--Rain Harder"
"Showguys"
"Jason vs Robocop"
"Die Hard With A Walker"
"Basic Instinct II" (NOT!)
"Scream, Blackenstein, Scream"
"Alien Indigestion"
"The Flintstones: Bombed Back To The Stone Age"
"Godzilla vs Little Nicky"
"Dude, Where's My OTHER Car?"
"Afternoon of the Dead"
"Honey I Threw Up In The Carport"
"Jurassic Park III" (whoops)

get it though? the last seduction 2?? like it wasn't really the last seduction at all the first time.. Aww forget it

I swear that Vermin Boy must share some of my brain on some disgusting level -- first Barnes & Barnes & Bonzos & now Mr. Mike!!
Cat Swim School!!  Cat Swim School!!
O'Donoghue was never exploited to his fullest -- I'm sure there are more than one unmade gem of a script lying about from this perverse intellect.  John Waters should direct -- it could save his rapidly collapsing career.

you also forgot to mention Alien 3 and Alien Resurection.....it makes me cringe to type those words

LoL...awww poor guy!....don't sweat it though...i got it

Some of the most viel, foul and otherwise odious sequels are
The Land befor time 2 to whatever the hell they're at now: the first one was okay when I was a kid, but what the hell?
Deathstalkers 3 and 4: 2 was cool, but theses other bite
Iron Warrior: Okay, the first movie in the series was crap too, but Blade Master rocked. Unfortunately, Iron Warrioir is slow even in fast forward. Watching it is like being poked with a sharp stick for several hours.
Angels in the endzone: need I say more?
All the "Hone I shrunk or Blew Up" series after the first one.
Killer tomatoes strike back: This movie is lame. Watch Return of the Kiler Tomatoes instead - It is one of the best movies ever made(seriosuly).
Sorority House Massacre 2 : the first was drek, let alone the sequel

Damn, he's catching on about the surgery! ;)

O'Donoghue apparently wrote a number of screenplays, the best supposedly being "Attack of the Cheap Special Effects." He was also planning on doing something with Quentin Tarantino, right before he died. Some quick background research shows that he had more produced than I thought-- I still have yet to see Savages...

feautered Who wants to marry a millionare psycho Rick Rockwell if you didn't know.  It wasn't bad

Return of the killer Tomatoes is awesome. Who did that rick guy play?
