I got the idea to ask from thinking about John Wick. The first movie felt perfect. It gave the impression there was a wider world out there without going way too far into showing rather than telling, and that ultimately it was a rather contained revenge and catharsis story. Then John Wick 2 made it far less believable and I think 3 (I tapped out) basically had what felt like someone who was a part of the organisation on every damn street corner.
On the surface John Wick seems like a movie about "just a simple pew pew action" but in reality there is a sense of a series that as an old enough person who is also a gamer and experienced all the generic fiction humanity had to offer there is always something you can relate yourself to in the movie. It's a series that a natural reason of an old enough person produced in the way old enough people can relate to, not just to enjoy action per se. Story itself or action scenes itself not important here. In the end it doesn't make me like the series, it just make me say to myself "it's watchable". But I kinda enjoy to think artistically about the whole series when you bother to see it in the context of metaphors by forgetting real life aspect of the series. Then what you understand is basically a movie version of how a man can feel like how living an ordinary man life feels like. In this man life of a movie series it's filled with what a man fears from and what a man expect from society. In the end you see a man's desire on how to end all these. However while I see movies I watch in their own context I also enjoy them in artistical POV when they make me think about interesting stuff even when they really didn't intent so per se, then it would make me feel like the movie is subconcious manifastation of their inner world and it would make me enjoy to think anyway. But on surface level yes the series got too long for it lost the charm of fun action scenes after 2nd movie, but then the series actually turned into something else. It got more "phoetic" in its own way.
To answer your question for the sake of this thread:
- The Terminator series: We got the point in the 1st movie and 2nd movie was ok, and then series entered into time paradox of BS lol.
- Jurassic Park: I never thought this series released a decent movie that uses its whole potential per se, for me they go side track and basically do the same boring shit despite it been so many movies since it started.
- The Alien: I just can't believe how much they stretched this shit. My brother told me about this series and it seems they combined lots of empty series to merge it into one big universe yet it doesn't impress me at all. For me it seems like this: 0 x 0 x 0 x 0 x 0 = 0 lolol
- The Resident Evil: It's probably the most empty and long movie series that has ever existed. I can also say the same shit for its game series too.
- Sonic movies: I played its first 3 games and never imagined it would have a story enough to make a movie of it lol.
- The Indiana Jones Series: How unrealistic and scientifically how it fucks shit up makes me wanna make sure my brain is totally destroyed when I even think about it. If it was sci-fi despite it was bad I would be okay, this shit is way worse than how Nolan fucks up basic logic in his movies lol. And I can't make sense what kind of BS there may be in this series enough to last that long. Even Star Wars makes more sense lol.
- The Rambo Series: Just why lol.
- The Fantastic Beasts and some BS: For a movie that lasted that long its story is shorter than plot description of the first Harry Potter book SMH lol.
Now now, I did push some buttons with my careless sincere honesty again so I'll delta ASAP!!! lolol:
