So many trilogies have been ruined by the third one, as the shift moves from story to special effects - I have always said a film focuses on either one, never both.

• 1) Star Wars 3 - epically oh dear. Awful script, ridiculous OTT effects.
• 2) X 3 - Brett Ratner ruined this trilogy. Ruined. Story of Wolverine abandoned in favour of effects for Phoenix.
• 3) Matrix 3 - Oh really, the machines were enough but the rain as well? Special effects overdrive.
• 4) Spiderman 3 - good, but getting worse.
• 5) Shrek 3 - story being dragged out
• 6) Rush Hour 3 - really annoyed me.Brett Ratner ruined another trilogy (this time his own). Awful ending.
• 7) POTC 3 - an abundance of effects with a complicated story doesn't work in favour
• 8) HSM - 3rd film much more showy, and story getting dragged out - also, introducing stupid random characters that then don't have a point and vanish as quickly as they came really annoys me.
• 9) The Mummy 3 - haven't seen it but I know it is ruined becuase Evie isn't the same.
• 10) Ocean's 13
