Top 10 Failed Movie Franchises

Franchise Fail
This new video examines movies that were meant to launch big-budget franchises but failed. Movies like Battle: Los Angeles (2011), Super Mario Bros. (1993), and John Carter (2012) (which I thought was not that bad), are among those that made the list.

Some of these movies ended in a way designed to lead to a second film that — fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your viewpoint — never came. Check it out.

    Muppets: “We’re Doing a Sequel”

    Muppets Sequel

    Check out the new trailer for the upcoming Muppets Most Wanted (2014), where the Muppets pay homage to sequels with the musical number “We’re Doing a Sequel.” Reportedly, this number will open the movie.

    Muppets Most Wanted will be in theaters starting March 21, 2014. The film also stars Ricky Gervais, Ty Burrell, and Tina Fey.
