Superman, first set of Batman movies, Alien, Spiderman (except there was no 4th), X-Men (counting Wolverine as the 4th), Star Wars (counting Phantom Menace as the 4th)...it's almost like a curse...
That's why I have a guideline about anything that's got numbers after it. Usually the higher the number the worst it is.
So far I think The Hobbit series is about the only thing I'll watch. Superman is my very least favorite hero and at this point Hollywood is whoring the comic book theme to make $$$. Some are good but it gets excessive to make each one "good".
