Attack of the sequels

Some movie franchises should never be resurrected. Hollywood seems to be having trouble turning out decent films so from time to time they decide to take a dead franchise and breath zombie life into it. Sometimes this is okay. Take the new Die Hard movie. I liked it. Batman Begins was awesome but only because the director chose to start from scratch. A similar tactic was used for Superman Returns. The Original Superman movie is classic. The sequels that followed, eh. So we just pretend they never happened and all is well.

The Rocky & Rambo series. Hmm, I like Stallone but can't we find him something better to do? There are no good roles out there for him to do? Well maybe he ought to do what Arnold did and bury himself in politics.

If I see another Freddy or Jason movie I am going to scream. Eventually the bad guys either need to die for good or just win already.
