<![CDATA[OT - Worst/Weakest/Least Favorite Film In a Series]]>Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Marvel/DC

NeonManiac0 — 10 years ago(December 14, 2015 12:56 AM)

Of the following movie series that have at least three or more movies, which installment to you find the be the worst/weakest one overall? It doesn't have to be a movie you dislike, just which is your least favorite. Remakes, crossovers and prequels count in any series that has them. With so many new sequels and remakes/reboots out now and coming out including the third Thor I thought this would be fun to do.
Star Wars
Indiana Jones
Lord Of The Rings
Alien
Predator
Terminator
RoboCop
Star Trek
James Bond
Jurassic Park
Batman
Superman
X-Men
Spider-Man
Marvel Cinematic Universe (overall)
-Phase 1
-Phase 2
*Iron Man
**Captain America
*Hulk
*Thor
Transformers
Rambo
Rocky
The Godfather
Die Hard
Lethal Weapon
Back To The Future
Planet Of The Apes
The Fast And The Furious
The Expendables
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Godzilla
King Kong

  • Includes The Avengers along with both of their stand-alone films.
    ** - Includes the 1990 Captain America film.
    My picks for each:
    Star Wars
  • The Phantom Menace
    Indiana Jones
  • The Last Crusade. Still love it though, just enjoy the others more, though this one and Crystal Skull tend to swap for me.
    Lord of The Rings
  • Haven't seen any so far, believe it or not.
    Alien
  • Alien Vs. Predator
    Predator
  • Alien Vs. Predator
    Terminator
  • Rise Of The Machines
    RoboCop
  • RoboCop 3
    Star Trek
  • I've only seen First Contact and liked it.
    James Bond
  • Don't remember which I've seen, so abstain for now.
    Jurassic Park
  • Jurassic Park III
    Batman
  • Batman & Robin
    Superman
  • Only seen Man Of Steel, which I liked a lot.
    X-Men
  • The Last Stand
    Spider-Man
  • Spider-Man 3.
    Marvel Cinematic Universe (overall)
  • Like them all a lot and have a hard time picking a least favorite. I guess Iron Man 3 but I still enjoy it a lot.
    Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 1
  • Tough choice. I suppose Thor, but I still like it.
    Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 2
  • Probably Iron Man 3.
    Iron Man
  • Probably 3, but I still like it a lot.
    Captain America
  • The 1990 movie is the only real option. Both the MCU Cap films as well as The Avengers films are amazing.
    Hulk
  • Haven't seen the 2003 movie but saw the 2008 reboot and The Avengers films, all are great.
    Thor
  • Liked them all. Probably the original the least, but it's still very good.
    Transformers
  • Original. At least the sequels were dumb fun in a way, the original to me was just dumb and boring.
    Rambo
  • Rambo III (still love it).
    Rocky
  • Haven't seen any, so abstain for now.
    The Godfather
  • Been so long since I last watched any I can't fairly say.
    Die Hard
  • A Good Day To Die Hard.
    Lethal Weapon
  • Probably Lethal Weapon 3, though it's still pretty good.
    Back To The Future
  • 3, but I still like it.
    Planet Of The Apes
  • Only seen Rise/Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes and loved both.
    The Fast And The Furious
  • The original. Not bad but forgettable, IMO.
    The Expendables
  • The original, in all honesty. Not bad, but it doesn't fully utilze the concept, IMO.
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
  • Probably the third, though I don't think it's horrible.
    Godzilla
  • Been too long since I watched the older one, need to go through them again. The recent 2014 film is definitely not the worst.
    King Kong
  • See Godzilla.
    Feel free to add more if you'd like.
    Also have the Marvel Cinematic Universe and have Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and Hulk listed as a sub-series.

Can't remember if I mentioned Mad Max before here. Only seen The Road Warrior which I remember being cool.

The DCEU is eligible for this now with Suicide Squad out.

RoboCop 2 isn't as good as the first but worth seeing if you liked the original. The subsequent films can easily be skipped and ignored.

Civil War was awesome, one of the best Marvel films to date, IMO.

With the mixed reception Batman v. Superman is getting well before the wide release it'll be interesting to see if any pick it.

Without question. Wouldn't be surprised if it killed any enthusiasm for a new Cap film for years.

The 1990 version is one of the worst comic book films ever made.

Thought so. The 1990 movie is pretty terrible and I can't say it surprises me much studios waited so long to make another Cap film after it.

Do you mean the 1990 Captain America film or The First Avenger?
