I think the Marvel franchises/MCU as a whole has gone too far. If we went 2 years without a CBM, I think I would be more than ok with that.

Blasphemy!! Heretic!! Leper...Outcast...Unclean!!

I had a feeling someone would say these and I am mixed on it. I stopped watching X-Men and Wolverine movies because I've tired of them but new characters like Deadpool and Dr. Strange still get me excited when they come out.

I am not excited about Marvel movies anymore, really, but I always watch them, and they are always good.  Even the movies that I don't specifically like are passable and once in a while, you run across something that's pretty fantastic.

In TV series they call this "jumping the shark" because of the Happy Days episode where The Fonz literally jumps a shark. In my opinion they should call movie sequels that go too far "Getting Rocked" and that would be in homage to all the sequels which have Dwayne Johnson in them.

Some good ones I didn't think about...

I loved the Despicable me Franchises...I love me Some minions...Banana!  Cheesy

I'm a little surprised that the Star trek flicks from the 80's weren't mentioned,or the Star wars reboots 1,2,3 (the one most people panned in the early 2000's)

I use the Fast and furious series as joke about how old I've gotten....I can't really see the appeal of the 1st one,let alone any more of them...

Talking about Star Wars is like talking about my family. I can point out the flaws but if you aren't one of us step off.  Cheesy

Ain't that a kids cartoon or something?

I agree on Star Trek. However, I did enjoy the first 2 in the series. The Wrath of Khan('82) was the best in the series. Great movie!

These movie have gotten stupider and stupider with each passing installment. I mean the first movie wasn't great or even good, but it wasn't terrible either. But that silliness should have ended there.
