Sucky sequels

 Wow, I watched 3 sequels recently and they were all disappointing:

Old Guard 2

Accountant 2

Another Simple Favor 

None of these sequels were as fun and fresh as the originals, which is not especially surprising, but I felt all 3 leaned into the baser elements of the movies that came before, and as a result, lost what made each charming and poignant. Such as shame.
