What is the sequel that had the largest drop off in quality from the original.

Pic related: Jaws = 10/10 Jaws 2 = 3/10.

I think a better answer would be the following sequels after 2. 2 was still watchable, but every sequel afterwards was infinitely worse than the one before, ending with one of the worst movies of all time in Revenge.
>>
>>71682124
Caddyshack to Caddyshack 2
Road House to Road House 2
Saturday Night Fever to Staying Alive
>>
>>71682124

I remember excitedly renting Jaws 2 as a kid and hating it. Never saw the other sequels, although I do love Richard Jeni's bit about Jaws 4: The Revenge.

Oh second thought maybe i should have inserted some rules that the sequel must have some of the past cast/director in the same project and not just be an entirely new cast that is completely unrelated to the original in everything but name.

Though I still hate the first one for being a third act infodump at least it was competent in other areas.

I think it was just getting tired. We saw the formula they were working with, the shaky cam was getting irritating, and it just felt way too long.

It would be fine if they didn't call it American Psycho. If it was just a generic horror movie, it would be considered a decent movie, but everyone compares it too the original, and thats not a fair comparison.

>cast?
check
>director and or producers?
i could be wrong but I think the sequels were taken over by people who either had nothing to do with
>idendity
or at least had no grasp on what made the original so great
or maybe both
>increase the shaky cam
>upcrease the pacing!

could've at least tried to be creative, but here's some Djibouti shooty fresh n fruity instead

Jaws 2 was decent tho

>>71682492
The Lost World was a cool adventure movie, I've watched it almost as many times as the first movie (and I've seen that at least 50 times).
3 wasn't too bad either but World doesn't feel like it's in the same franchise.

I honestly love The Lost World. It's not great by any means, but it's fun. Plus, Jeff Goldblum is a plus.

I enjoyed jaws 2, the sailing made it better for me being that it's what I'm familiar with. That being said I'll probably never watch it again.
