Aliens and Alien 3 are great examples.  The crappiness of A3 (or any of the other piles of garbage after) in no way diminished Alien or Aliens.  Does anyone here think the original Superman movie is in any way diminished by the dreck of Superman 3?

Or for that fact: Terminator and T2.

Yes actually. I try not to think about it, but even the second one had some super goofy moments. The first movie was simple and great an no other Superman movie can match it, but the memory of just flinging his s to wrap people up or flying in the opposite direction to turn back time or that weird thing he did with the damn sorta make it tough for me to watch the original film and enjoy it the same way before stupid really started taking over.

So much.  

What a stupid idea, making The Machine of Inexorable Horror into a kid-friendly action buddy. 

There is one Terminator movie.  Everything else is just swamp gas or a mirage or something.

Jared Leto is in MOTU film. Now that is alarming

I think that He-Man movie will have bigger issues than Jared Leto, lol.

Of course it will and hundred percent agreed.  They got the wrong person to play He Man and other issues

Never was a fan of MOTU, so I've no dog in the race, as it were. However, I think it's fair to say that, like all fans, they deserve a good film to carry on the legacy of the brand (at least we TF fans got Bumblebee, which was just good, not great). As such it's disheartening to see the negative inclination of the comments here. That said, I'm at a loss as to how Jared Leto continues to get work, as he seems to carry the Touch of Death to anything he's in.

Perfect looking would have been this actor. Got that prince Adam look down

They did got Namor completely wrong. In that Wakanda film. Wrong actor and look. Looks nothing like Spock on steroids

So, I watched this earlier this evening. I did not care for it at all.

If Kosinski isn't making his sequel it's kind of a moot point.

According to the ARES's wiki Kosinski was an executive producer. I guess that was a poor investment, lol.

Would have so much rather have had a sequel to Legacy!

[Hikuro]

Think we all would have, Ares seems like it was such an unnecessary film that steals from the events of Legacy in a bad way which is really sad. I kept getting a little conflicted on wanting to watch it but seeing how I can't rent it for under 5 bucks I don't even see a purpose to, I'm not spending 25 bucks on that movie.

5 bucks would be too much
