I don't know, with Halloween and Fri. 13th I liked some of the sequals. I don't know what the deal was with Hellraiser though, everything but 1 was bad. What about good franchises though like Evil Dead? There are others (I loved Dawn and Day of the dead and liked Land) but I think we really forget about the good ones because the bad ones destroy what we really liked. When a sequals continues something good people just kind of go "yeah, that's how it should be done" when really they deserve more praise for not trashing the franchise. I liked Candyman 1 and 2 but have only seen some of 3. Anyway, I like franchises because of the lasting charecters they can create but once those chars. are ruined they're hard to ressurect. I agree with the filmmaker theory though, I think when the creator sticks with the franchise all the way through it has a better chance of not becoming a laughingstock.
