Proof positive that bad things happen in threes.

March 23, 2009 – For those of us who call Comic-Con our summer home, it is easy, if not our mission, to identify the best sequels to some of our favorite fan indulgences. And while we can readily rattle off the best second installments, it becomes a lot tougher to call out a good third film. But it is really easy to point the finger of movie shame at a franchise’s worst Three-quel.

This list of 10 of the worst, and most disappointing, third films should help Batman fans understand why Chris Nolan is a tad on the reluctant side to come back for another film. After all, he would be following in Neo’s and Brett Ratner’s footsteps. Mighty IGN-ers, we have left few stones unturned, and few filmmakers un-skewered, in our latest ranking. We kept our hate aimed solely at our more sci-fi and comic book friendly film series; we’re saving best and worst horror sequels for another day.

What does a film have to do to get on our list? Well, besides introduce a new strain of awful into the world, they had to let us down on the quality established by the first film or first two films – we’re talking gut-wrenching, stomach-turning disappointments. The films on this list are also guilty of losing focus of their main character or story, as well as being victim to style over substance. And, of course, Editor’s Choice plays a hand.

So here it is, our 10 worst third installments. And for you four fans of Schumacher’s Batman movies out there who will be offended by it? Yeah, you’re some kind of wrong people. Seriously, get that looked at.

10. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines

T3 slaps T2 fans in the face by telling us that Judgment Day is not a hard and fast date. It then begins to kidney punch us by Xeroxing most of T2’s set pieces, substituting them with new vehicles, and adding a weak, evil female Terminator. The entire premise of T2 is the prevention of Judgment Day, which by the film’s conclusion, has been averted. Or so we thought. T3 establishes the idea that Judgment Day has merely been postponed, and that it is inevitable. If this is the case, then doesn’t that negate the importance and significance of the previous two films? But, for argument’s sake, let’s say that we accept the premise, even if it contradicts its own mythology.

The execution of the story is no better. The new terminator model, T-X, is a lame duck. The only cool advancement in technology this new model makes is that she is a woman, and a hot one at that. She appears to be able to control machines and morph some outrageous weapons (Blow torch gun?) but mostly only uses her double jointed flexibility in battle. The T-1000 would have been a better foe, even if it was a repeat. Speaking of repeats, Arnold is also back as the 101 Model, which is a model that was apparently reprogrammed with very dated “Talk to the hand” one-liners and a tendency to defy the logic of sending a machine back in time to protect the future’s only hope, only to try to kill John Connor in an attempt to call his bluff. The “twist” ending is a brave choice, which stands out considerably amongst all of the mediocrity. If Skynet does terminate mankind, it should start with the people responsible for this movie.

9. Blade: Trinity

The third Blade movie is the poster child for how not to make a sequel. One would think it would be a no-brainer to pit Blade against Dracula in an ultimate showdown, that it would at the very least deliver on the promise and fun of the second film. But instead, we get a the equivalent of movie cancer – Blade plays supporting character to Nightstalkers Ryan Reynolds and Jessica Biel; Dracula looks like a bouncer in need of a tan instead of the alpha/omega of suckheads and director David Goyer makes ineptitude an Olympic sport.

The movie is a fascinating failure, considering there isn’t much to pulling off a Blade movie other than have Blade brood in between dusting vamps and looking cool while doing it. The goal of the suckfest was to provide a stepping stone for a Nightstalkers spin-off; in doing so, Blade became relegated to the background and his “death scene” came off about as compelling as Scott’s in X3. Blade is a hero, he should die like one. And he should go out in a better vehicle than this crapfest. Avoid this one like the plague.

—————————————————————————————

8. Back to the Future III

We’d rather listen to the entire Huey Lewis catalog than watch this film. The idea of McFly-ing to the Wild, Wild West has some merits; unfortunately, very few of them were considered for this film. BTTF III is more indulgent and less concerned with giving its narrative a forward momentum than the second film, and that’s saying something. But BTTF II is somewhat of a guilty pleasure; the third film is simply guilty of capping a trilogy with a movie that doesn’t know what else to do but take up space and cut to Doc Brown wearing Man with No Name garb.

There is a good, maybe even great, third movie to wrap up Marty McFly’s DeLorean time travels. Something about saving his family history in a way more akin to the first film, something about saving the lineage in a more dynamic way than what the third film depicts. Something, anything, but this movie.

—————————————————————————————-

7. Alien 3

Granted, Alien 3 quite literally came from the seventh level of Development Hell. Renny Harlin and Vincent Ward tried to continue Ripley’s story, they couldn’t for various reasons, and David Fincher was dropped in with no story, a firm release date and a bunch of hovering studio execs. That said, Alien 3 is still a disappointment, a moody, noble misfire that surrounds our heroine with a bunch of bald, British prisoners who all look alike, and kills off any of the characters we cared about in Cameron’s epic effort.

Ripley ends up marooned on a prison planet, which means she’s surrounded by prison inmates. And lice, which requires Ripley to shave her head and… nevermind. You know you have a problem when the length of your main character’s hair garners more attention than the events of the film. But the movie does have a great opening sequence, a cool idea behind the alien using a dog as a host and Ripley realizing she has a Queen inside her. Alien 3 suffers from being very episodic with its thrills, and its scares. But it is very consistent with its mediocrity, which leads to much disappointment for fans of the first two films. Ripley deserved a good trilogy capper, she got this and then Resurrection instead.

6. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End

We love Jack Sparrow. We think Johnny Depp should do any and all acting roles. But we don’t like it when a franchise, based on the blockbuster reaction to the character of Sparrow, forgets to service its whole reason for being. We don’t like a third film that puts a so-not-there epic love between Elizabeth and Will before the Sparrow’s antics. And we severely dislike a film that makes Sparrow a bumbling caricature, who does nothing really but give the third act an extra sword fight, which is the last thing this too-damn-long movie needs.

Gore Verbinksi is, at best, a quirky storyteller who lucked out with the unexpected success of the first film. Prior to these films, he had no cache of blockbuster experience. That explains a lot, especially all the sucky, protracted parts showcasing all special effects and little of the charm and Depp that made the first movie so popular and fun.

5. Batman Forever

The Batman franchise made a significant shift in approach, theme, target audience and priority with the film Batman Forver. Remember, this is long before the Batman we have today, so we must look at this film relative to when it was released. Audiences were still scratching their heads at Batman Returns very dark, very Penguin heavy, tone, and they (and the studio) wanted to lighten things up. Exit Tim Burton, enter Joel Schumacher. And Batsuit nipples. And butt and crotch shots. And a city with an endless supply of neon search lights. And – our brain won’t stop punching our faces, the movie is such a disappointment.

The often stoic and tightlipped Batman of the first two is replaced by a one-liner dispensing plastic man, who says such gems as, “It’s the car, right? Chicks love the car.” And, “You trying to get under my cape, doctor?” (Akiva Goldsman? Yeah, that Oscar you won? You should just give it back. Seriously, it’s gonna get awkward, then messy, if we have to take it back. The tears, the awkardness, yeah, just give it back.) But worse that that, worse than nipples, is what the film does to Batman himself. It takes away Batman’s reason for being Batman; it puts Bruce Wayne on a search to look for the reason why he goes out at night dressed as a bat.

Look, the last guy who needs a reminder as to why he goes out at night, dressed as a bat, is the guy who goes out at night dressed as a bat.

4. The Matrix Revolutions

Reloaded wasn’t great, but it didn’t leave enough rope for the third Wachowski Bros. film to hang itself with. But, somehow, in this bloated, theorem-happy, broken CG cancer of a movie, every single element of filmmaking went straight to the gallows.

Some would argue that the main problem with the sequel films is that they don’t seem to be warranted, and the third film definitely makes a case for that. Neo is stuck being a passive observer to his own movie, while post-apocalyptic Morpheus flies around in the ugliest hovercraft ever made and Trinity tosses around 1000-yard stares.

The Mech Warrior-esque battle that concludes the film is a lot of eye candy, but goes on for far too long, and it would have meant more to us had it been supported by a story that warranted such a climax. The fight between Neo and Mr. Smith seems to go nowhere and tell us nothing we don’t already know, aside from the fact that Neo had no problem defeating Smith the first time by literally going inside him, but apparently he can’t do the same thing now? But the biggest crime is Neo’s death, his elliptical sacrifice that aspires to be tragedy but instead settles for “meh.” If it’s not worth showing Morpheus’ reaction to the death of his greatest student, then it is not worth doing, or watching.

3. X-Men: The Last Stand

This film was in trouble the moment Bryan Singer left the franchise. And then it went into damage control mode following Matthew Vaughn’s departure. But what’s to worry? The trailer looked awesome, still does. What’s the worst the guy behind Money Talks can do to our favorite mutants from upstate New York?

Oh, let us count the ways: The Brotherhood selling that they are evil by sporting “what the f*#k?” tattoos and black leather – and don’t even get us started on their take on Calypso; the heroic Cyclops dying an off-screen death; Professor X dying for shock value only and the Cure storyline in an awkward, clunky competition with the Dark Phoenix arc. An increased studio presence is to blame, along with a director being hired to essentially turn the camera on in time for a release date.

X-Men, as a film, always faced an uphill battle of weaving a number of characters into the fold, and making each of their individual stories not only relevant, but a part of the overall plot as well. This is accomplished in the first two films by establishing Charles and Eric as leaders of their opposing sides and focusing the conflict within the X-Men on the love triangle of Scott, Jean and Logan. With both sides of this formula suffering in equal measures, it’s easy to watch The Last Stand go wrong. Instead of letting either the Cure story or Dark Phoenix mythos take center stage – or saving one for a fourth film – our X-Men are left coming off as fan-fiction versions of themselves. The movie is surrounded by such badness, that Frasier’s Beast manages to emerge as a high point. Aside from a bitter aftertaste, X3 leaves fans always wondering, and never seeing, just what Singer’s more confident, and competent, story would have been.

———————————————————————————————

2. Spider-Man 3

Spider-Man was about a nerd who was bestowed great power, and with it, came great responsibility. Spider-Man 2 was about our hero’s sacrifice because of his responsibility. And Spider-Man 3 is about… something, we assume, that got lost with all the emo Peter dance sequences and the all-over-the-place special effects.

Like X3, the story this time out suffers from multiple plotlines that are overdone and underdeveloped. Venom’s role as villain comes off as an extended cameo, a studio note implemented to make fans buy more opening weekend tickets. To that end, the note worked; but it did not make us happy, and neither did making Sandman somehow responsible for the death of Uncle Ben. Changing up the origin story just to have the third film call back to the first is unnecessary, especially when you have Spider-Man dealing with the consequences of being a man and a hero to the woman he loves, when you have Harry deciding how to get revenge on his friend and when you have Venom in play. Dance sequences, Harry on a hover board and then the webslinger – who slings webs to get around NYC – on the same hover board should have been left in the fan-fiction pile. Spider-Man 2 ended on such a strong, promising note.

Spider-Man 3 behaves as if it just watched the Cliffs’ Notes equivalent to its predecessor. It does not make room for the characters to fully develop their stories or explore the drama inherent in a love triangle between Peter, Mary Jane and Gwen Stacey.

The film’s biggest casualty is arguably the relationship between Harry and Peter, which was well-established in the first two films. It comes in spurts underscored by awkward and random moments of out-of-character comedy. Venom’s origin story is still best told on the comic book pages, along with the Dark Phoenix’s. Spider-Man 3 should have given the fans what they deserve, instead, it gave us what we can never change, and in some degree, never get over. Spidey 3 will forever be a disappointment – it let us down – and a fourth installment cannot make the same mistake twice.

1. Superman III

In the first film, Superman squares off against Lex Luthor, the greatest criminal mastermind of his time. In the second film, Zod asks the son of Jor-El to kneel before him and gets his hand rearranged for his troubles. So who does Superman face in his third film? How do the filmmakers raise the bar? By putting Kal-El up against Richard Pryor as a computer programmer and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. as an oil-hungry CEO.

No one told the producers that a hero is only as good as his villain. But apparently, someone told them that a third film should have a farcical opening title sequence, involving wind-up penguins, a blind guy and a busty blond walking through it all. Oh, and they were told that the key to a good entertainment is to make Superman “dark,” literally, by giving him an 1980s cocaine beard and a darker suit (which the suit in Superman Returns resembles). The comedic tone of the film destroys any legitimacy and drama that III might have had going in. How so? Richard Pryor skis off of a high-rise, wearing a pink tablecloth tied around his neck and walks it off. Seriously?!

Some like the junkyard fight between good Clark and evil Supes near the end of the film, others don’t. But we all hate the fact that Superman nearly gets his ass kicked by a giant computer, that can make zombie robots out of the villain Webster’s sister. You know, the more we talk about this the more we want to punch holes through baby unicorns. Which should make it pretty obvious that Superman III is the worst Three-quel ever made.

That sound you hear is that of fandom scorned. Like our picks for worst threequels? Did we miss one or two? We’re an equal-opportunity hater, so feel free to rant away in the comments below. And seriously, avoid Blade 3. You’d rather be kicked in the junk by Devestator than watch it.
