The current trend of 3D just makes things worse too. "Ok so the prequel to the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre was awful. I know! Lets do another reboot/quasi-sequel but in 3D!"
Again films are just being used as čash in on sequels
Again list is endless
But the trend of sequels can also get irritating as we'll if a film is made and its connected to the other films and there a story connecting it then that's ok(ish)
But it when you just get films that churn out sequels or cash in for sake of then that get on my nerves
