Batman. The first two Keaton/Burton films were great, especially for their time. Once Burton stepped away from the director's chair and other lead actors stepped in, it went to shit. [The franchise would later be saved by Christopher Nolan.]

The Matrix. The sequels are dead to me.

X-men. The first was like an introduction of characters. The second was mediocre. The others have no appeal to me.

Spiderman. The first was okay, the second was forgettable, the trailer to the third looked unpromising.

Star Wars. Episode I was a mess, but there were some interesting bits. Episodes II and III were bigger messes to the point of absurdity.

Transformers. The first one was entertaining but difficult to take seriously. The previews to the second one kept me away from it.

The Highlander. There really can be only one.
