Recently, IaskedtheBuzzFeed Communitywhich film franchises they think fell off after the first movie.
Here are 15 of their top responses:
1.“The Mummy(1999). The sequel was just a less good version of the first film, and I won’t even talk about the third one.”
Here’s the trailer forThe Mummy:
2.“Die Hard! The firstDie Hardis the best movie! Bruce Willis’s performance was masterful. He combined humor and the action scenes perfectly. There is no way the remaining movies can compete with the first movie.”
Here’s theDie Hardtrailer:
3.“Home Alone. The first is a classic. The second I have a soft spot for because it was the one I had on VHS as a kid and I now live in NYC, but it’s definitely not as good. The rest? Don’t even bother.”

4.“TheMatrixseries. The first movie is an iconic masterpiece, and the other three are so lacking in any depth and development.”

5.“Many of the DC films. I’m talking to you,Aquaman. They tried to be as strong as theMCU, but it didn’t stick.”
Here’s theAquamantrailer:
6.“X-Men! I loved the first one; the second one was…weird but tolerable, and the last one…ugh. I haven’t even watched any of the others.”
Watch the X-Men trailer below:
7.“Pirates of the Caribbean! The first one is a perfect movie (my fave of all time). It’s simple and fun and goofy and suspends reality JUST enough that you feel like undead pirates COULD’VE been a thing. And the characters were so brilliantly cast and played so well off each other. It’s just the perfect movie, even 20 years later!”

8.“SurprisedFast & Furioushasn’t been mentioned yet! 😂”
Here’s the trailer forThe Fast and the Furious:
9.“The newIT(2017) was so creepy and cool. I was so excited for the sequel in 2019, but it was so boring.”

10.“Frozen. The first movie was pretty great, even though now it’s vastly overrated. It had a great plot, a lot of the characters' arcs were finished, and the premise was carried throughout to boost the movie’s overall message and tone. Sisterly love, accepting yourself, and not letting your fears define you, beautiful! However,Frozen 2ruined all of that in a mere hour and a half with half-done songs, cheesy dialogue that was more cringe than fun, a white savior complex, and a rushed plot that felt it wasn’t very well developed.”
Here’s theFrozentrailer:
11.“TheBournemovies. First one — great. Second one — too much bouncy, pseudo-documentary crap. Third one…‘Holy shit it’s Jason Bourne! Activate the level 42 double secret protocols!’ When the dialogue is so stupid it makes people laugh, the ‘legacy’ isn’t what you hoped for.”

12.“Jurassic ParkandJurassic World— they both had great [first] movies, okayish second films and horrid third films.”

13."[AfterWonder Woman], I will never get over the trash that wasWonder Woman 1984."

14.“Children of the Corn(1984). The first one was passable and had its creepy moments and created some cool atmosphere and frightening subtlety. The sequels were not only not scary or mysterious in the absolute slightest, but totally crossed over into slapstick cartoony horror-comedy.”

15.And finally: “TheDivergentseries is the only correct answer.”
