I was originally going to post The Godfather Part III but then I started overthinking it. I noticed all of the other movies people had mentioned were the second movies in a series and I wondered if somebody might object that a third movie wasn’t technically a sequel. So I decided to change it to Speed 2. And by not checking before doing so, I screwed up.

I’ll pass.
