Some movie franchises have continued for decades, but others have faded into obscurity after just a few sequels. Here are some forgotten follow-ups that didn't quite live up to the hype:
- "Blade Runner 2049" (2017): This long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott's classic sci-fi film received critical acclaim but failed to perform well at the box office.
- "Terminator: Genisys" (2015): This reboot of the Terminator franchise was met with mixed reviews and underperformed at the box office.
- "Caddyshack II" (1988): This sequel to the beloved comedy classic failed to capture the magic of the original.
- "Ghostbusters II" (1989): While not a complete disaster, this sequel to the original Ghostbusters film was a disappointment for many fans.
- "Speed 2: Cruise Control" (1997): This sequel to the action-packed thriller "Speed" was widely panned by critics and audiences.
- "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids 2" (1992): This sequel to the popular family comedy was a commercial success but received mixed reviews.
- "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (2008): This fourth installment in the Indiana Jones franchise was met with mixed reactions from fans and critics.
These are just a few examples of forgotten sequels. Some of these films may have been poorly made, while others simply failed to capture the magic of their predecessors.
