Film why are the third movies in a trilogy always considered bad or not as good as the first two?

    Its the same with all trilogy's, the original star wars movies, dark knight, the godfather, and the matrix. All have the first two movies to be considered classics but the third one ends up flopping, why is that?

    Because the third movies in the franchises you mentioned are terrible.

    There are plenty of others where the third is just as good or better.

    Hey I thought return of the Jedi was pretty good.

    And what are the other trilogy's that are better?

    Revenge of the Sith is by far the best of the prequel trilogy for whatever that's worth.

    Return of the King
    Toy Story 3
    Pusher III
    Mission Impossible III
    Three Colors: Red
    Army of Darkness
    Lady Vengeance
    The Bourne Ultimatum

    Not calling it a flop I consider return of the Jedi a good conclusion to the original star wars. But most fans from what I hear don't like it because of well.... ewoks

    You can't have 2 movies "hype" up this imperial army, only to have them get their s--- pushed in by 2 foot tall furballs with sticks.

    I actually like a lot The Godfather III. Before Midnight is possibly the best third part ever. Die Hard 3 is the second best of the franchise. The Bourne Ultimatum is the best one and one of the greatest action films ever, and im a Dark Knight Rises defendor

    Can't remember another good third part. I dont count films such as the dollars trilogy

    But that's what's makes it a good movie, the big villains being taken down by the good guys against all odds.
    But that's my opinion.

    I don't think that the movies are neccessarily bad, it's just that when the first movie is released it creates a 'base' that the sequels, according to many is, are supposed to follow. If they don't do it people consider them bad. Just because they are not the exact same movie as the first one it's 'bad', which I think is pretty dumb. It doesn't neccessarily have to be like this though, it's just what I think.
