The Rambo series (First Blood, Rambo: First Blood II, Rambo III, Rambo, Rambo V) and the Fast and the Furious films are the top contenders. Also, Halloween has a sequel with the exact same title.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Escape from the Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes and Battle for the Planet of the Apes.


Still have no idea what's going on. Make up your fricking mind.

Are we escaping or are we conquesting? And what's beneath? And why do we want to go BENEATH the planet - how do you go beneath the planet?

What's down there?

More Apes?

Dawn should have come before Rise anyway.

It's simple.

Beneath has them going through the old MTA subway lines to a cult that worshiped a nuclear warhead.

Escape had Cornelius and Zira escaping the planet and returning to 1970s Earth.

Conquest shows how the apes first gained intelligence and became the dominant race on the planet under Caesar.

Are you missing a chromosome or never saw the films? Or both?

Dude, learn sarcarsm.

I'm just playing with the thread title. Don't take everything at face value.

Thought my post sounded like a joke, guess it misfired on you.

It was a play on an old joke about those movies, but yeah, I'm missing a chromosome - says the guy who doesn't understand context and how a line is written...and the history of the joke.

Sarcasm does not always translate well through text. But your lack of a chromosome did though.

The new Shaft movie coming out. It's a sequel to Shaft (2000) titled... Shaft.

The James Gunn Suicide Squad sequel is going to be called “The Suicide Squad”

However recently it’s come out that it’s going to be a hard reboot instead of a sequel, meaning that the first one didn’t happen and is noncanonical
