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.

8. Shrek (2001), Shrek 2 (2004), Shrek The Third (2007), Shrek Forever After (2010), Puss in Boots (2011)

How can you not love Shrek the ogre, and Princess Fiona, the princess who was torn between her natural beauty and staying an ogre. The Shrek film series was just like most other series of its kind; progressively getting worse. The second one was pretty fun and did introduce us to Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots, (which then had its own spin-off film), but after that it was rather downhill.
