Why it sucks: Because you don’t have to be a genius to observe that the gritty, glam world of 1970s disco is very, very different than the gleaming, phony Broadway that Tony is plunged into. “Saturday Night Fever” had a dark, urban moodiness to it; “Staying Alive” gleams and glimmers like the oil smeared on Travolta’s conspicuously displayed six-pack. “Staying Alive” made money; it just didn’t make any sense.
Some gooders on this list.
Ya i dont agree with Clerks 2 being on that list but the rest sure
Clerks 2 had no place on there, no matter if you thought it was great or not it doesn’t belong on a list with Grease 2.
Yeah, that was the only one I didn’t fully agree with. It wasn’t near the disgrace to the original that Be Cool was to Get Shorty. That movie was maybe the single worst star vehicle I’ve ever seen outside The Rock’s performance which was totally wasted on that turd.
I whole-heartedly agree with the analysis of the Highlander sequel. That was a terrible piece of crap that retconned everything in the original. The decision to pretend that that movie never existed was the best thing that could have been done in the Highlander franchise.
As far as Clerks II goes, it just seemed like a bad idea from the start. The original became a cult classic. Why not just let it be. Especially when Smith himself will rail against crappy sequels to great originals. Does it belong on the list of worst sequels, no not really.
I don’t think the first Weekend at Bernie’s should ever have been made and the sequel only signaled the coming apocalypse.
I could agree with everything on there except for Clerks 2. I thought that was a freakin’ hilarious movie.
What about Mortal Kombat: Annihilation? Now THAT was a horrible sequel.
I disagree with grease 2 (has great music in it) and definately clerks 2. Ummm what about Crow: city of angels? I walked out of that one!
Clerks II definitely doesn’t belong on that list.
I think the deal with Kevin Smith is that you are either a fan or not. I am a fan of Clerks II, not the best movie ever made, but it did not deserve to be on that list.
Bleh, Imo, Waynes World 2 shoulda been on there. One was fantastic! Why couldn’t they just leave it at that?
Blues Brothers 2000 and Caddyshack II made the list. I am content.
