The Comprehensive Movie Series/Franchise Tournament

[_____V_____]

Every good movie ever made has always spawned a sequel(s) or a prequel(rarity). That doesnt necessarily mean that any bad movie doesnt have an awful sequel behind it too. It all depends on the movie, and how certain people look at it.

Some movies become so popular, that they establish themselves in a "cult" status. They generate immense popularity, and merchandise designed on them are hot sellers in the market. Those get branded as "franchises". It takes a lot for a movie to develop into a franchise, that too successfully, so lets come together and see what goes into making a series/franchise so successful that it can be crowned as The Best Movie Series/franchise of All Time.

I have spent a lot of time researching into this tournament. And after sorting through the entries which I thought were good enough to be included in this, I have divided this tournament into three Parts :-:

- The first Section includes duologies, movies which have spawned one sequel/prequel...or 2 movies having the same successful character (including TV/Video movies).
- The second Section includes trilogies, which...you guessed right...has movies with two sequels/prequels or the directors have deemed them as their "trilogies" (includes TV/Video movies).
- The third Section deals with movies which have spawned at least 3 or more sequels/prequels, and/or have had TV series or TV movies.

Direct-to-video movies & TV movies are also included in this tournament. The eventual winners of all 3 categories will square off from the quarter final stage onwards, which will lead to crowning the eventual Champion of Movie Series/Franchises.

You, as voters, have to decide on one common factor...which movie series has entertained you more? For those of you who have seen only one of the series, you can base your judgement on that 1 movie only. If you have seen none, dont fret. You can base your vote on what you have heard about them.

So, without further ado, here rolls the first Part of this long tournament...


Part I: Duologies

Jeepers Creepers. I'd also like to comment that the fact Westworld lost disturbs me greatly, and because of it somewhere in the world there's a small child who won't be getting any presents this year.

I hope you're all happy with yourselves:mad:

[bloodrayne]

Jeepers Creepers...That was a pretty easy one


Although, I DID like the Butterfly Effect movies...I just wonder why the second one was SO much different than the first...I would have liked it more if it had been more like the first one...The second one was just kinda boring, but still okay

Gotta get away
Holy Guyver

Shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you

Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away-get away

Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel

Holy Guyver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid

Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen

I don't want to say it, but, Grease 1 and 2

[Geddy]

Grease series.

[Prey]

not impressed by either but Travolta made Grease look decent so Ill go with Grease 1 & 2.

[DP McCoy]

Grease is the word.....he,he

[alkytrio666]

Grease......

[bwind22]

Hmmm...

On the one hand Grease is a musical and had way too much of tightly clad Travolta singing and dancing and Grease 2 was a joke of a film....

On the other hand Dirty Dancing sucked and had way too much tightly clad Swayze, but some very quotable lines and Dirty Dancing 2 is a film that I have absolutely zero will to ever watch....


All films involved pretty much suck so this comes down to Travolta vs. Swayze for me and if you've been around here long enough, you know I got an autographed picture of John Travolta hanging in my hallway (that he mailed me when I sent him a fan letter after seeing Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty for the first time within a couple weeks of each other.)

So I'll vote Travolta, er... Grease.

The ol' Shit Sandwich/Giant Douche debate, eh? Well, as much as I'd hate to cast a vote for Boobraider, at least the first one was mildly entertaining.

Tomb Raider it is.

I never even heard of those Ethan Hawke movies but they look pretty gay. The 1st Bridget Jones was decent as far as chick flix go. I thought the 2nd one sucked pretty bad though, but against those two sappy looking pieces of crap, I'll have to vote for Bridget Jones.

I concur. Book of Shadows was an entertainer. If only they didnt tag it Blair Witch 2, it would have given a better performance at the box office. Same with Season of the Witch, if it had gotten released independently...or as Halloween II...who knows...



The Blair Witch(es) complete an easy and smooth shutout win over the Octopii!!
