Do You Remember These 22 Awesome Films and Their Not-So-Awesome Sequels?
We all love a good movie night, with popcorn, tortilla chips & dips, or maybe it’s wine and chocolates. One way or another, nothing beats a good night in catching the latest flicks. Remember how there were numerous awesome films that resonated with us over the years, films that became cult classics, and those that just straight-up ruled! But do you remember their sequels? Check out 22 of the greatest films of the past few decades...and their not so great sequels. Can you believe Home Alone spanned into five films??
1. Mean Girls (2004) & Mean Girls 2 (2011)
Easily one of the most iconic films after the turn of the millennium, Mean Girls brought us a brilliant cast including Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Tina Fey & Amy Poehler, as well as valuable lessons one should know when entering high school. Its sequel however… well hands up who saw it? Because we did, and it was terrible.
The Star Wars saga is definitely a conflicting one, because as much as we may love the films, looking back at them now...are they really that great? The original trio are rather outdated now, albeit still classics. Many of us can agree that the prequel trilogy (Episodes I-III) was just awful. Where is Hayden Christensen now anyway? Of course, we still very much look forward to every single Episode that’s to be released and is to be made. We will miss you Princess Leia.22.
