Interesting article in today's Times which I have managed to locate online. Inspired what can only be described as a vicious lambasting of the new Spiderman film (I'll still be going to see it like), a Times journo looks at the phenomenon of the third film in a series. Personally I think he's being bloody harsh on Rocky and Back To The Future, ok they were popcorn fodder but they weren't so bad. Point taken about the Godfather, Lethal Weapon and Alien though! entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/film/article1737414.eceThey're inviting nominations for good '3' films, I'll have to get my thinking cap on |

They can suck my balls Spiderman 3 is probably going to be very good for a popcorn flick and I really like the Godfather, Back to The Future, Rocky, Alien and even Lethal Weapon series'.

I notice they're already knocking Pirates 3 - I was under the impression, though, that Pirates was much like LOTR, in that it's one big story spread over three films. Ergo, part 3 was planned from the outset, as opposed to being a plain money-spinner. Which flaws the article somewhat, IMO (a weak closing argument kills your case). Overall, I'd say they have a point (though in many cases, part 2 was a mistake, never mind part 3). Honourable exceptions? Austin Powers 3 (Goldmember - just about funny enough, not tiresome) Army of Darkness (Evil Dead 3 - I liked it!) Return of the Living Dead 3 (Not a classic, but certainly not notably worse than the first 2) The numero uno stinker for part 3 in a series, though, has to go to Halloween 3. It wasn't even related to the first two films; it was just a franchise name rip-off!  ("Set in the same town, and one brief name-drop" doesn't cut it for me, I'm afraid  ) |
