If I like a movie, I see no reason not to go back for Parts 2, 3, 4, etc.
I'm just trying to think what other sequels there were. There was the James Bond movies and not many. I think sequels have become a recent idea of franchising.
I am a fan of sequels even though they are inevitably awful.
After 'The Fellowship of the Ring,' the films that followed it, instead of having their own unique aesthetic, they all wanted to be 'Lord of the Rings' as opposed to learning from 'Lord of the Rings.'
I'm not contractually obligated to sequels on anything.
After 'Pitch Perfect,' I only want to be in sequels. No. 2 of whatever.
Sequels to most movies are always fluff and not as good as the first.
My experience is that sequels are rarely as good as the originals.
As we all know, sequels can be tricky.
