Why does everybody hate AVP: Requiem so much?

I called this when I read that post earlier, but I chose not to say anything. Just because.

You know me oh too well! 

It's a unique ability called "I'm covering up the fact that I haven't seen Terminator yet by being really nice."

Watch it already!!!  Or I will annoyingly poke you in the face with my finger until you do!

You do really need to watch The Terminator and Terminator 2. Same tier as Alien, Aliens and Predator.

[The Kurgan]

True dat.

But stop after Terminator 2. After T2 there are only variant degrees of disappointment.

Hmm... sounds familiar

Is there any franchise where the third+ entry actually is better than the first two? There has to be some kind of exception somewhere.

[The Old One]

Sounds familiar... 

Yeah... Predator.

@The Kurgan

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Die Hard with a Vengeance.

The Good The Bad and the Ugly.

Hopefully; the final Alien prequel.

Just thinking off the cuff here, and opinions will vary... and these don't all match my opinions...

LOTR Return of the King
Star Trek IV The Voyage Home
Mad Max Fury Road
Toy Story 3
Avengers Infinity War
Nightmare on Elm Street 3 Dream Warriors
Die Hard with a Vengeance
Captain America: Civil War

*spit take*

You mean DHWaV is better than DH2, right? Because that's a given.

Harry Potter, yes.

[Frosty Venom]

Does Revenge of the Sith count?

[Voodoo Magic]

Harry Potter, yes.

True!

In the "Special Edition" Director's cut, yes.

Yeah... Predator.

Yep, Predator & Alien for sure. That's why it sounds familiar

I've heard people prefer 3 over 2 and even over the original, yes. But for me... It's Die Hard at #1... and yes, Die Hard 2: Die Harder is my #2 favorite. I admit that with no shame.

[Hudson]

Die Hard 2 is pretty boring. What I remember from WaV is the "I HATE N*****S" sign, and then some really dated effects when they're driving those dump trucks away from a giant surge of water.

Three Colours: Red

Skyfall

I thought we were doing third films only?
If not I'd have added a lot more.
