Default Biggest Sequel Letdowns?

what movie sequels have REALLY let you down? they always say that sequels are never better than the originals and it's usually true. but which sequels were completely awful to you?

the one that comes to mind for me is The Crow 2, City of Angels. i was in highschool at the time and my friends and i thought the first one was so awesome and were SO excited about the second one. we all went to watch it opening night... and walked out absolutely pissed off at how much it sucked... it was horrible!

right off the top of my head the biggest sequel let down would have to be Matrix Reloaded

I agree.. Matrix sequels were a real letdown. The first was something I've never seen, they could have made the next so freakin cool.. but nooooo

the whole Star Wars thing could be a thread all by itself - so I won't go into it.

I can't think of any lame sequels & I know they're out there!
