Ok, I have a real problem with an assumption in this article from Box Office Mojo

The part I have a problem with is this
Should Eclipse exceed New Moon in the long run, it would buck the trend of closely-timed serialized sequels, joining the ranks of the exceptionally-performing Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings franchises. When a second movie explodes with anticipation after the first movie's success, a certain amount of disappointment is inevitable and it becomes incredibly difficult for the third movie to maintain the momentum, especially when it hasn't had the time to stock more pent-up demand. That's how The Matrix and Pirates of the Caribbean series played out.
The assumption here is that the reason the third Matrix and Pirates of the Caribbean films did poorly was because they came to close behind the second film in the series. I think this is a silly assumption. I hardly think the reason these two movies played out the way they did was because of their timing in connection to the second film. They failed because they were bad films.

Kill Bill 2, and others. I think it is a trend {nm} OdysseusG Jun 30, 21:51
you are correct, they both were bad films {nm} magicdreamer Jun 30, 21:55
i agree. Quality is the issue. as noted by the exceptions stated. {nm} Lathe Jun 30, 21:58
The third Matrix did poorly because the second one didn't connect with the audence the way the first one did. {nm} RogerMore Jul 01, 03:55
I disagree with an assumption of yours too. PIRT3 didn't do poorly and it wasn't a bad film. TheSureThing Jul 01, 05:46
It wasn't a great film. It was the only one of the pirates films I saw just one time. And, I wasn't the magicdreamer Jul 01, 07:26
Pent up demand. You can say all you want about pent up demand but it doesn't..... magicdreamer Jul 01, 08:00
