Movie Sequels
« on: March 31, 2010, 08:54:43 AM »
What's the longest running series of movie sequels ever?  Not TV shows.  I thought it might be Police Academy movies since it seemed like there was a billion of those, but I guess there's only actually 7.  My daughter guessed the James Bond series, but are those considered sequels?  I've never seen any of them.  Harry Potter will have 8 movies.  Halloween has 8 or 9, but isn't the latest one considered a reboot?  Friday the 13th has 9, I guess.  Star Trek maybe?

i could have sworn that there were at least 10 friday the 13ths... (there are 9 in my box set, including freddy vs. jason.. but i thought there was at least one more - friday the 13 X)

looks like there was another one made in 2002 after X which would make it 11 movies if you count freddy vs jason, or 10 if you do not) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_the_13th_%28franchise%29

there have been 28 godzilla movies + 1 american version.. 2 other godzilla movies in the making for 2011 and 2012

james bond has 22 with one in production

star trek has 11, with a 12th in production

Godzilla doesn't fucking count.

Rush has 11 movies... but it seems they all have a similar plot.

Pokémon will have 13 movies pretty soon.

what disqualifies godzilla?

from what i have seen - so far it has the most sequels of any film franchise...

as for rush having 11 movies.. funny that i can not find any info about a filmography from them...  you would think at least that someone would have mentioned movies, or films on the wiki page for the band...

but i would have to disqualify movies by rush as since there is no proof of these movies existence - and if they do exist they are more likely not considered sequels...

no, don't mutilate the Friday The 13th series, please.

there was 1-8, then the remake.

Freddy vs. Jason is actually a freddy movie, Jason goes to hell and Jason X are "jason" movies and almost fucked up the whole series for me, i am in denial that they exist.  The TV show had nothing to do with the movie series either. 

I bet it's james bond.  aren't there like 52 of them? dating back to like the early or mid 1900's?

what about killer cut a 2009 friday the 13th...

as for freddy vs jason... it is in neither box set... since it is a cross over of both franchises... regardless of if people think it is more of a nightmare or friday 13th movie - it probably does not qualify as a sequel ...

and according to wiki there are only 22 james bond films..
