Which movie should NOT have had a sequel???

As we all know there have been some amazing movies made. The movie is so successful and great that the studio's think "Hey maybe we can make more money off of these" and thus the sequel is born. Some sequels are actually good, if not better, than the original. Others take down a great movie and leaves us thinking "Why did they do that?" I always find that the movies that had multiple parts planned from the beginning are usually better, but there are exceptions. So name some movies, in your opinion, that the sequel should never have seen the light of day.
Matrix- I think the 1st one was great and I wish they would've left it that way. I thought the ending was a great setup to theories and discussion for years to come...but they made two sequels that, imo, really took the Matrix story down.
Mortal Kombat- OK so the first one wasn't great...but it was good for its time and fit the feel of the game. The 2nd...well...we're not going to talk about that crap.
I'm gonna go old school with a childhood sequel I hated
The Rescuers Down Under SUCKED!
And here is where I get writers block because I suck like that lol. I'm add more on as I remember them.

i think that remakes are just as horrid as sequels. it is a rare occasion sequel/remake beats the first installment.

Under Siege 2 sucked my monkey nuts.
The rest of the jaws series.
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Last Crusade was semi-ok.

Godfather 2 > Godfather 1.
Godfather 3 however, was a travesty.

yeah i feel the same about the ALIEN movies
ALIENS > ALIEN
but ALIEN 3 pretty much sucked
ALIEN RESSURECTION was pretty terrible
ALIEN vs PREDATOR not too bad...i hear the sequel to that is supposed to be bad ass too...
Terminator 2 was pretty good i thought...
Friday the 13th part 2 is awesome

INT. CLASSROOM - SAME Sidney takes a seat at the back of the room. A handful of FILM STUDENTS sit around on torn couches heavy in discussion. Sid goes unnoticed as she watches a whirlwind debate. A SNOTTY GUY is pontificating a point. SNOTTY GUY Sequels are too handicapped. By definition alone, they're inferior films. Hallie sits on a couch next to MICKEY, 20's, atheletic, cool and rowdy. Arms enwrapped. MICKEY Bullshit generalization. Many sequels have surpassed their original. SNOTTY GUY Name one. MICKEY ALIENS Far better than the original. ANOTHER GUY Subjective. SOME GIRL Life's subjective. I much prefer Ridley Scott. The conversation overlaps, everyone arguing... making their point about ALIENS VS. ALIEN. HALLIE No way. ALIENS rocked. "Stay away from her - you bitch." SNOTTY GUY I'll give you that one. Name another. MICKEY T2. SOME GIRL You've got a hard-on for Cameron. SNOTTY GUY A bigger budget does not make a better movie. TERMINATOR one is historical. Someone screams out, "You Sarah Connor?" as the TEACHER, a young artsy type, speaks up. ARTSY TEACHER How about THE GODFATHER PART II? Ooooohhh. The whole room goes worship silent. All in agreement. SNOTTY GUY The almighty exception. Name another. A YOUNG MAN, handsome and smooth, jumps into the conversation. His name is Derek. DEREK EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. Smarter story. Improved effects. From the back of the room, Sidney watches him. Fixated. HALLIE I liked JEDI. With the furry things. Everyone BOO'S. "Ewoks blow." MICKEY Lucas and his Romper Room stage. HALLIE I got. I got it. FRIDAY THE 13TH, PART 20. SNOTTY GUY Case in point. The entire horror genre was destroyed by sequels. ARTSY TEACHER Really? And why do you think that is? SNOTTY GUY Sequels suck. Hello. It becomes about: money and no one's interested in quality. DEREK It's more than that. Horror films are only as good as their villains. How can Freddie and Jason possibly be scary after they've been diluted through five or six sequels. TEACHER What's the solution? If you were making a sequel today what would you do differently? The class stews on this. Derek turns, spotting Sidney in the back of the room. She gives a half wave. He starts for her, excusing himself. SNOTTY GUY The point is - I made my point. Sequels suck.

Final Destination has become "Lets think of how many creative ways to kill people"
I forgot about Nightmare on Elm Street...Freddy was scary in that one and now he's a comedian.
I saw that Bloodrayne has a sequel...I just saw the last 10 mins of that movie and nearly threw up..it was HORRIBLE

xXx should NOT have had a sequel.
Also, the Fast and the Furious should not have had a sequel, especially two sequels.
Star wars 1-3 sucked, as well.

oh my mother-fucking-god. the first van wilder was an alright movie for what it tried to be. stupid comedy that made me chuckle. but holy fucking hell.. "the rise of taj" was one of the absolute worst pieces of shit ever to grace the big screen. i was HIGH when i tried watched this, and i still had to stop it early. seriously.. a comedy that even a high person did not find remotely funny. that's just wrong.
