The first Jurassic Park movie is all time one of the greatest films ever made with the special effects still holding up to this day. The 2nd film was still very enjoyable in my opinion but it was just a cookie cutter sequel not bad, not good. The 3rd film wasn’t great at all. But compared to the rest of the series the 3rd film is basically the godfather.

As another personal pick the 1st blade movie is a hood classic good. The other 2 not so much.

It would be far more interesting to ask, what movie franchise DOESN'T get worse with each new film.

Alien at least had the second film better than the first, which was a hell of an accomplishment since the first film was great. Fortunately they never even made any movies after the second one.

Aliens, Terminator 2, The Dark Knight are the first three that come to mind - but yes, in general sequels tend to be inferior.

Or which one gets BETTER with each new film.

star wars up until rise of skywalker

If you go by release date then that can’t be true considering the prequels (even though I love them). TFA was also so bland compared to the rest. The Last Jedi was the only decent one since the original trilogy imo.

But oh my god rise of skywalker is so fucking bad.

rise of skywalker was so terrible they should have let rian johnson just do his thing again, even if people hated it like TLJ at least it would have had some thought put into it

[-] detren@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

TLJ at least is a real movie. Rise of Skywalker meanwhile is so soulless it’s shocking.

i liked TFA. It was a decent flick. But then they just got so. much. worse.

John Wick? They are not like the best movies in the world but they do get better.
