Which 5 movies do you wish they'd never made sequels for?


Recommended Posts

Toy Story 3.

How Toy Story 3 ended was perfect.

While Toy Story 4 is okay as a film, they shouldn't have included the main cast and did it as a spin off, not even calling it Toy Story at all.

Pretty much everything put out after 2001 that was a sequel.

You are referring to:

  • Every single film that Marvel has ever made
  • Every Kung Fu Panda film
  • Some of the Pixar's most acclaimed films that have won in excess of 100+ awards
  • All Dragon Prince films

I hate to be you because you don't seem to enjoy some of the finest films ever made.

I watched that film a long time ago. I don't remember any prostitution scenes. Maybe that's because the bloodbath at the end stands out.

The movie is Taxi Driver one of the best movie of all time and no there's no such scene.

Her character was a prostitute.  No one said anything about "prostitution scenes"

 

Quote

Suffering from insomnia, disturbed loner Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) takes a job as a New York City cabbie, haunting the streets nightly, growing increasingly detached from reality as he dreams of cleaning up the filthy city. When Travis meets pretty campaign worker Betsy (Cybill Shepherd), he becomes obsessed with the idea of saving the world, first plotting to assassinate a presidential candidate, then directing his attentions toward rescuing 12-year-old prostitute Iris (Jodie Foster).

Horror movies are one thing, but I will NEVER understand how people can enjoy either watching OR making "gore" movies.  I think there's something seriously wrong with you if you enjoy that kind of thing, and should probably seek professional help...

 

 

I was never a fan of gory horror films either. Or even Horror for that matter. I watched the Hellraiser films I think late 90s or early 00s due to some people recommending me to see it. Once and never again. The whole flesh thing with hooks ripping it off still disturbs me.

 

In the Mouth of Madness, 1994? was another disturbing film. Event Horizon 1997 had similar bits but it was more suspense/jump scares with small gory parts. Then you had the 2006 film Slither. That has to be the most disturbed film I've ever seen. It was really grotesque. 

 

The Thing 1982 was enjoyable but still had some disturbing scenes.

 

Then you had that Aliens vs Predator Requiem, 2007? The scene when one of the Aliens does something awful to the pregnant woman in the hospital bed.

 

Species II 1998 was another grotesque disgusting one related to pregnancy deaths.

 

Lots of Horror films I simply stay away from now. The last one I remember that ended it for me was the 2008 film, Mirrors.

I'm with you on that!

I had friends who worked in special makeup effects (most of them passed on long ago), often involving gore and creatures, so it was not as disgusting to me because I knew and saw how the stuff was made out of polyfoam or liquid latex (or rolls of duct tape and chicken wire), but it's not my favorite genre, or sub-genre.

    • I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.
