First one is amazing and still watchable all this time later. So many good moments. Could have ended there. I find all the sequels underwhelming.

At least some of the Halloween sequels were entertaining as straightforward slashers and had even a neat idea or two. All Jurassic Park sequels just suck.

Both, but I will never understand why there are so many godawful Halloween movies.

It was supposed to be an anthology and every time we get a new one I wish they had gone forward with that idea :(

Jurassic Park at least has possibilities of what to do with the dinosaurs and there are different scenarios. Halloween loses all luster after one movie and Michael Myers is BORING because there are no rules of what he can and can’t do

I suppose I don’t “need” more of this world, but I’m interested to see more of how this new Matrix works.

I don’t like that The Matrix got any sequels.

Mister Wachowski is a no talent man, just like his brother.

Loved it but it wasn’t a set-up more than a coda where Trinity and Neo get what they deserve as a parallel to Lana’s life. A creator with a new outlook reflecting on material and a legacy made when they were almost literally a different person. Lana‘s now free to change The Matrix, as in the movie.

Honestly, The Matrix should’ve just been one movie, only cuz it was only one movie that worked, and that’s the first one. It was lightning in a bottle that caught waves and can’t be replicated by the multiple sequels. Plus Keanu’s doing so much better in his newer movies, especially in John Wick.

Definitely Batman! I think this is because fans are used to Batman being more malleable, as Kane and Finger's Batman was a pretty basic, archetypal character that had an awesome motif. As such, the only real qualifiers are being someone who suffered a crime-related tragedy and stands against crime.

The idea that anybody could be Spider-Man is a quintessential characteristic of the core of the character, you can be rich, poor, black or white and still be Spider-Man, even Stan said that's why he wears a full face mask, so it naturally follows that he is the best legacy heroes ever created.

I feel like the point of Spider-Man is that anybody can be Spider-Man. Miles and Peter are different characters with their own upbringings. It’s not the same for Batman. Bruce Wayne IS Batman. Only Bruce can really understand what it means to be Batman on a more intimate, personal level in my eyes.

Honestly I believe that Miles is the best example and most successful example of a legacy character ever, in just a little over a decade he has been in animated TV shows, animated movies, and video games, and now a sizeable part of the fandom considers him THE Spider-Man.
