I’d even say Die Hard 4 is the second best one after the original. It is very good.
Die Hard 5 is almost as bad as Highlander 2.
Heh. That’s exactly the way my Mom always describes it. She never remembers the actual name.
Don’t have a good IV, but I would say that the best Leonard was Part VI.
Bed and Board, the fourth of Francois Truffaut’s Antoine Doinel series.
I’d vote for this.
Thunderball isn’t bad, and neither was the remake of it Never Say Never. Not as good as Goldfinger though.
Alien IV deserves a dishonorable mention for being perhaps the worst offender of this trend. I can’t think of a part 4 that sunk to as low of depths as Alien IV.
Not Richard Dreyfuss-Alan Arkin.
And Halloween IV was, at the very least, better than Season of the Witch. I mean, it at least had Michael Myers back. :smack:
C’mon, Herbie Goes Bananas is a classic!
It is solid and the last good Halloween movie.
I don’t think die Hard 4 and Rambo 4 can be beat.
Seconded. These are still the winners of the thread thus far.
Hmm, I’d guess the fourth Dexter Riley film was decent, whatever it was. Used to love those as a kid.
Sure as hell wasn’t Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. Did that POS even get a theatrical release? I knew nothing about it until it appeared in the video rental store one day.
I nominate-
Universal Studios’ Ghost of Frankenstein, starring Cedric Hardwicke as Ludwig Frankenstein, Lon Chaney Jr. as the Monster, and Bela Lugosi as Ygor.
Hammer Films’ Dracula Has Risen from the Grave, and
Frankenstein Created Woman.
How did we forget Star Trek IV: The One with the Whales so quickly?
Unfortunately that was only a trilogy:
The Computer that Wore Tennis Shoes (69)
Now You See Him Now You Don’t (72)
The Strongest Man in the World (75)
You might be able to stretch the OP’s criteria a bit as the Dexter Reilly series was set at Medfield College, which was also the setting for The Absent Minded Professor (61) and Son of Flubber (63) which would have made Now You See Him… the 4th in the series.
I can’t believe I forgot The Prodigal Planet. Part IV of the Rapturist B-movie “A Thief in the Night” series, which traumatized a whole generation of Christian teens.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
I’d say Fast & Furious (4 Fast 4 Furious). Not that it’s a particularly great film, or even one of the better Fast & Furious films. But it marked the beginning of the formula for all future Fast & Furious films - Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and their motley collection of underground racing pals performing a huge heist in some exotic locale.
If you count the ViewAskewniverse movies as a series, then Dogma was the fourth movie and, in my opinion, was the best of the series.
Has anyone here seen Love Finds Andy Hardy, and feel qualified to comment on it?
