Movie Series That Failed As Soon As The First Sequel Came Out

It's a franchise world, and we just live in it. It's pretty much a given that a movie with decent box office receipts is going to get a sequel, and most studios are looking for that gold-egg-laying franchise goose that's going to keep giving and giving. Marvel got the formula figured out. The Fast and Furious franchise knows how to do it. James Bond. Mission: Impossible. Star Wars. Even Shrek had a good thing going for a while. Then you have these budding franchises that crashed and burned after the first sequel. No matter how much the producers of these films wanted to recapture the magic of the original, they found out the hard way that trying to catch lightning twice in the same bottle might just get you burned. Here are the movie series that failed as soon as the first sequel came out.
