It's inevitable when Hollywood has a mega-hit movie, they then keep doing sequels until they crash into the rocks. In fact, "Godfather" may have been one of the 1st sequel franchises.
Sometimes the sequel does measure up to the original, like "Godfather 2" or "Aliens". Then I guess Hollywood is tempted to roll the dice yet again and you get, well, "Godfather 3" or "Alien 3".
i hear ya..sequels are usually done by people who had nothing to do with the original..but, Puzo and Coppola were involved...strange...
Yep, I’ve always heard that with movie sequels and franchises, that you reach “the point of diminishing returns”.
I never saw Godfather 3, in part because hearing from people who saw it, said it wasn’t so good.
