* [[Star Wars|Star Wars:]]
**The prequel trilogy is a pretty big step down from the beloved original trilogy.
***''[[The Phantom Menace]]'', the first installment of the prequel trilogy, gets a lot of flak from fans for the introduction of the infamous Jar Jar Binks, overuse of CGI and Jake Lloyd's performance as Anakin Skywalker.
***''[[Attack of the Clones]]'', the second installment, isn't much better, if not worse than ''The Phantom Menace'', with main criticism going towards the weak and forced Anakin/Padme love story, Anakin's general emo-ness in that film in particular and the perceived stiffness of Hayden Christensen's performance. However, some consider to be a slight improvement over the first prequel.
***''While [[Revenge of the Sith]]'', the third and final installment, is considered to be an improvement over the first two prequels for being more on par with the original trilogy, better visuals and Hayden Christensen improving on his performance from the last prequel, it nevertheless isn't safe from receiving flak.
****Prior to the prequel trilogy, most fans considered ''[[Return of the Jedi]]'' to be the weakest film of the original trilogy, though it is still well liked.
***The sequel trilogy, consisting of ''[[The Force Awakens|The Force Awakens,]] [[The Last Jedi]]'' and ''The Rise of Skywalker'' have [[Broken Base|widely varying opinions among fans.]] Some consider it to be an improvement from the prequel trilogy, some consider it to be just as problematic and others even consider the prequels to be superior.
* While ''[[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull]]'' is the weakest ''[[Indiana Jones]]'' film critically (although the strongest commercially) there is a heavy debate among fans as to whether it is better or worse than the series' previous worst film ''[[Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom|Temple of Doom]]'' (which was the weakest commercially, for whatever that's worth). Fans of ''Doom'' claim that the fourth film was too campy and over-the-top, even by ''[[Indiana Jones]]'' standards, and that too much the series was altered in this film ({{spoiler|having aliens instead of mysticism powering the object, Jones marrying Marion at the end, him having a son}} etc.). However, the equally vocal ''Skull'' fans claim that ''Doom'' was too [[Darker and Edgier|dark and gritty]] compared to the other movies' lighter tone, it had copious amounts of [[Squick]] for no real reason other than to be edgy, and [[Replacement Scrappy|replaced the beloved characters Marion and Sallah with the more despised Willie and Short-Round.]]
* While both ''[[The Matrix|Matrix]]'' sequels are hated by the fandom, ''[[The Matrix Revolutions]]'' is considered the weakest for its [[Gainax Ending|underwhelming ambiguous ending]] and forced metaphors taking control of the story.
