This morning I got up at 4:30 AM and I happened to catch the end of Revenge of the Nerds 2. I got up to grade my PT students final evaluation because I didn't have time to last night.

That got me thinking about worst movie sequels of all time. We discussed it today as my student is a movie buff too and we came up with this list:

1. Jaws 3 and 4: Apparently they are in a box set with 1 and 2, they don't even belong in the same package. I remember actually liking Jaws 3 when I was younger but then I got smart.

2. Revenge of the Nerds 2-4: Awful, should have left it at one and been happy with taking a theme too far the first time. The first one owed a lot of its success to Betty Childs simply yummy she was.

3. Austin Powers-Goldmember: I know there are probably worse sequels, but none was I more disappointed with than this one. I was expecting big things but I didn't laugh out loud once and the first two I didn't stop laughing.

4. The Godfather Part 3: Most would agree. I was never a Godfather fan but I did watch them all and 3 was horrendous most would say they should have left it at one.

5. Ace Ventura Pet Detective 2 When Nature Calls: The first one had some realism, not that Carey was trying for the role to be real but the second movie just got carried away and went way overboard. One of the few that Jim Carey had bombed.
