Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides
Alice in Wonderland (2010)
The 3 most awful films on the list.
Yeah Star Wars Episode I made almost all its money based on having the Star Wars brand attached to it.
If it was just a generic sci-fi movie it would've made maybe 1/3 that.

This post deserves an award.

All the Transformers movies ( I like Transformers but man are the movies horrible )
All the Pirates of the caribbean movies ( Meh, never understood the hype )
I'll let Furious 7 pass, since it is the home to one of my favourite songs and I can see the appeal at least in this edition of the Furious series. In my opinion though the whole series is overrated.

Which is still good, yes, but Furious 7 did over $1.5 billion, which made it into one of the top 5 highest grossing films ever.

if you mean half of what this one did, then yes. When you said half I thought you meant half a billion.

If you read mockingjay you know the book is small and really there was not much to make 2 movies, this is why the first part takes so much time showing shit like the prim cat shit, and is so slow paced as fuck. A better paced movie and at most 30 min more you could make an awesome adaptation. Than comes the hobbits movies, the first was great, the second was OK, and the third was just pointless, they milked it so much, 2 movies would have done just great... |
I kinda have to agree with this. Although I don't like book adaptations skipping a lot of the story, splitting them in half is worse. I wish they had the balls to make it into one 3.5 hour movie, or finish them both first and offer a full version next to a split version for lightweights that can't sit still that long :)
I have not watched Mockingjay yet, I'm waiting for them both to come to blu-ray to watch them after eachother, same thing I did with Harry potter and the hobbit movies. It's still far from as good as a single cohesive movie, as you said, too much padding and working up to arbitrary cliffhangers. And yes, the 3rd Hobbit movie was crap.
They did it right in the past with The stand. I never realized that was a 4 part miniseries until I looked it up just now. I watched all 6 hours in 1 go on dvd back then. Now they want to remake that into an 8 part miniseries, probably with akward commercial break spots baked in, and a movie at the end :/ A new way to get people into the cinema?
Anyway according to that list the general public doesn't mind split movies. I know when I see part I announced, I'll wait for the finished deal to come to blu-ray, or simply skip it altogether.

Furious 7 went to $390 million in China from Furious 6's $67 million, China is a rapidly growing market for films.
