10 Movie Sequels That Avoided Obvious Mistakes

[@anthonyfry567]

Of all the Star Wars movies you could highligh - the first that came to mind when I saw your title was The Empire Strikes Back. Tonally different, moved the story and characters forward and wasn't simply another "save the princess" or "defeat the evil villians". Our "heroes" actually "lost" in this one, which was a pretty bold move!

[@VictorStave]

My favorite thing about Saw II, given the ending they used, is the fact that John comments more than once that Daniel is “In a safe location”, and not one single person in the room is hearing it; Daniel is IN A SAFE LOCATION, Jigsaw cannot be any more direct and literal, but they don’t understand that’s how Jogsaw works well enough at that place in the timeline to focus on the words themselves

Rebecca Ferguson was so friggn good in Rogue Nation, very sensible decision to bring her back.

[@ericthompson3982]

James Gunn nailed the end of his GotG trilogy. Only he could have done that, and I'm so glad they kept him on to write and direct.

[@jvondd]

Hold on... I thought Villeneuve answered the question about Deckard being a replicant pretty clearly: he's not. If he was, he wouldn't be alive for any of the events of the sequel because replicants only had a four-year lifespan in 2019. By 2049, the Nexus-8 models are given an indefinite lifespan, so unless this Deckard is some sort of copy fabricated on to a Nexus-8 replicant--which we have no reason to assume from the film--the only way he could be alive and have memories of Rachael would be if he was a human. This also explains why Ana is capable of living a natural life but also suffers from an extreme autoimmune disease due to her being the offspring of Rachael and Deckard: half-replicant, half-human.

Thank you!

@@erakfishfishfish It may not be implausible, but it's contrived, loaded with retcons and makes for an overall weaker story.

I consider both trilogies master pieces but making Rohan such a critical aspect of LOTR 2&3 and in back to the future not returning to 1955 in the 3rd movie

[@davidjecmenek8943]

Being a relative to a legacy character would make sense in a "Skywalker" saga. Changing it to Palpatine, and having every Skywalker die for her, and she gets all their stuff, including their name kind of defeats the purpose of all that came before. Even the TLJ reveal of her having nobody parents was really more of a self own by Mr Big Bad Kylo Ren, supposed Grandchild of Darth Fn Vader, who was trying to diss a woman who beat his trained-by- Jake Skywalker, and highly experienced in combat- lordship in a duel with light sabers the very first time she touched one in combat. Some people just gotta simp for the Palpatine Saga.

[@BeatRoot14]

only cameo we cared about in Top Gun was Kenny Loggins and Danger zone

[@StocktonSmurf]

So the Rey trilogy gets no points here, they made nearly ALL the mistakes

[@PrinceIsot]

The only mistake they didn't make was throwing the literal kitchen sink into a shot

[@danielmiller3596]

I want to say that they can only go up from here, but this is Disney, who is doing trash live action remakes of good animation

[@Ceares]

I love that Gamora and Starlord didn't get together in the third GOTG because it pretty much disproves all the whining about there being no consequences to death in the MCU if they bring a character back. She, much like Loki are not the same people as the ones who died and the ones who the other characters are mourning.

Buddy that Ilsa Faust entry did not age terribly well XD

[@nareanmano]

Cgi brian in future movies would be tasteless Rey parents being nobodies made more sense than that rey being palpatine granddaughter

[@salemslotandmore8278]

Thanks for the List and Video 😀

[@TheFirstJedi]

This list is illegitimized by giving the Sequel Trilogy props.

[@taivo55]

The Dark Knight Rises, The Wrath of Khan. This whole category can perhaps be subtitled, "Sequels that were better than the original". Others have mentioned "The Empire Strikes Back".

[@mikelmacrichard4772]

Actually 4 of the movies you mentioned avoided making the same mistake only to make bigger mistakes. Christopher Reeve's Superman broke the model giving us a 4 part story (fifth Brandon Roth had to cover) that carried on and didn't rehash the same story each episode. Predator 2 tried like Aliens but fell flat not bringing out a good concept trying too hard to mimic the first. Many others before mid to late 1990s after that Hollywood got lazy.

[@PrinceIsot]

🙄 yes yes only old movies are good 👍

[@wkj-dk8wv]

Aliens redefined defined action movies.

[@dylanogg347]

"Yo Adrian, we did it. We did it."

[@maniacaldrop92]

The last jedi and Rise of "Skywalker" were as films a huge mistakes.

[@scotiancoast4498]

Aliens still freaks me out today.

Not repeating the same film didn't help the Robocop series.

[@eclipsehorse8693]

Robocop1- violent and a classic Robocop 2- more violent and a bit better in parts? Robocop 3- 'Omg think of the children!' lets make it PG-13 and put him in a really stupid plot - for faaamilies!

[@c0mpr3nd3]

@@eclipsehorse8693 the second Robocop is a thinly veiled satire on how the production company wanted a sequel to be made more than the director.

[@ldcg106]

The Last Jedi didn't make a mistake, it was the mistake.

[@wfchannel4673]

yeah... the last jedi doesn't make OBVIOUS mistakes. but i think that adjective is fairly important to include.

Everything about the star wars sequel trilogy was a mistake

[@eclipsehorse8693]

Force Awakens- in case you missed 'STAR WARS' The last Jedi- f*ck it, lets just end this franchise any way we can The Rise of Skywalker- we're sorry about that last director, it was his first day at the studio- here's what REALLY happens!

[@notpublic5159]

Blade Runner: how did Roy Batty know Deckard's name?

[@bruced6543]

Great list

[@patrickkundegraber3343]

Haven't seen the sequel, but if deckard is still alive by the time of the sequel, doesn't that proof he's not a replicant? Or are those dream sequences or something?

[@dylanogg347]

08:30: As a Replicant would.

[@ssvensic]

Rey doesn't deserve to be mentioned in any list

[@Zombiesnyder13]

Marvel fans: "We want LET THERE BE CARNAGE to be R-Rated. Just like Deadpool and Logan." Avi Arad: "'Let There Be Carnage' will be PG-13 like the first movie, so people can keep bringing their children to watch it." Me: "þussy"

TLJ being on this list is a joke, avoid a mistake while it made 100 more damaging star wars for decade to come.

[@kennethmiller9346]

To tell the truth it was the third act of top gun that saved it before that it wad generic.

[@sigutjo]

You mispronounced the names deliberately. You proved that you can say Ilsa and a few seconds later you say Isla.

[@IAmNMFlores]

Wow lots of The Last Jedi haters here. Sorry, I liked it, easily the best in the sequel trilogy and one of the best Star Wars films

[@phillipscheid4505]

Hard disagree with Guardians 3. The ending sucked, seemed very forced.

[@johnanderson9765]

The title is poorly worded. Maybe it should say something like "10 Movie Sequels That Avoided Mistakes Seen in Other Franchises," "10 Movie Sequels that Brilliantly Broke the Rules," "10 Movie Sequels That Went in a Different Direction" or something along those lines.

[@p.hightower5383]

ONLY good Wolverine movie.
