Jesus Christ, they should call that list "30 Movies that Should NEVER EVER EVER BE MADE." Fuck me, there are some sequels to some real stinkiers on that one. Ghost Rider 2? REALLY? After the facehumping assspelunking that was that first movie? Also, shitty sequels to good movies: Scream 2

They could do a good job with an I Robot 2 if they decided to make up another of Asimov's Short stories, rather than make a direct sequel. However this would be too much for many moviegoers to comprehend I think.
Toy Story 3 could be not-awful, the rest though I more-or-less agree.

Starship Troopers 2
"Starship Troopers 3: Marauder: Casper Van Diem is back, but it’s still going straight to DVD, as the piss-awful second film did. It’s due out later this year." From the link above. Yeah, I saw that. The 2nd movie really REALLY sucked. Not only did it switch genres from "action movie" to "thriller" the whole script was just awful and took itself too seriously. A far cry from the campy explosion laden original. I hope they're going back to the formula of the first, but I expect it'll still suck.

The trailer leads me to believe Starship Troopers 3 will be a return to the campy shit of the original, but it still looks Sci-Fi original movie level of shit.

Didn't Chev die at the end of Crank? How will that work? Making him survive that ruins the whole movie for me.
Prequel?

Have you tried the internet? It's made out of millions of people missing the point of everything and then getting angry about it

“Chev faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered artificial ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working.”
Heh, that sounds so stupid it could work.

What I always get a kick of is "Final Destination #" You've already got two definitive endings: "Final" and "Destination". There's something more?! It's like saying "infinite infinities" or some shit. Milk milk milk. Otherwise, yea, unfortunately your profound question go dragged through brinkmanship  Also, see: Final Fight 2. and 3. and so forth.

Right on. That's the kind of movie I was looking for. Scream was a damn good movie because it was barely disguised satire of horror. You can't make a sequel to that because the cat's out of the bag halfway through the first movie.

That depends at least 2010 was an Arthur C. Clarke novel that was turned into a movie
Yes, I'm not saying that 2010 wasn't a good work, but it was Clarke's sequel to 2001, which was written with Kubrick as the film was made. The film was an atomic piece of work that didn't need anything appended to it. 2010 definitely doesn't fall into the category of shitty sequels, just unnecessary. And S. Darko could be the best fucking movie of the year, but it will still be unnecessary.

Beverly Hills Cop 4?
ROSEWOOD IS BACK?
Look, call me a retard. But I'll rush to theaters for that. I hope they remaster the theme. Hur hur.
Same with Silent Hill 4.
I'm still trying to wrap my brain about Jurassic Park 4 though.

Jurassic Park 4 will work, but only if Jason Statham is in it.

I wholeheartedly endorse this sentiment.

Jason Stratham is apparently in all of them. Also, American Psycho 2. I mean srsly? Shrek 5?!  Shit, I swear, anything Mike Meyers does automatically gets 17 freakin' sequels. I loved the first one, sorta enjoyed the second, skipped the third, and wasn't even aware there was a fourth. War of the Worlds 2 directed by C Thomas Howell sounds like the sequel to the not-Tom Cruise one. I never saw it outside of listings on the sci-fi channel that I could browse faster past. Finally, Jurassic Park 4?! As if the last two didn't completely suck?

Yes, Hollywood is indeed fucked up and so out of ideas that sequels are a foregone conclusion. So when you get a REALLY good movie series, you go ahead with multiple sequels at once, apparently. Hey, worked for Pirates!
