Three sequels worth watching in 2026—and three to avoid at all costs

It's time to give the Hollywood executives a good laugh – and by that, I mean it's time for some movies worth watching and others that we can just let fade into obscurity. Let's dive in.

First up, there's "The Devil Wears Prada 2." This sequel has been years in the making, and with Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci returning, it's hard not to be optimistic about its chances. However, we can't help but wonder if it's trying too hard to recapture lightning in a bottle.

On the other hand, "Focker-in-Law" is a no-go from me. Twenty-six years after the last installment, I'm still not convinced that this franchise has anything left to offer. The new film seems like a rehashing of old jokes and gags, with Ariana Grande getting a supporting role – which might just be enough to salvage it.

Next up is "Scary Movie 6." This one's got potential, with Anna Faris and Regina Hall back in the mix as Cindy Campbell and Brenda Meeks. With Keenan, Shawn, and Marlon Wayans at the helm, we can expect some laugh-out-loud moments – but let's see if they can pull it off.

Then there's "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping," a prequel to 2023's hit film. I'm not sold on this one, mainly because I don't think a sequel or two is going to change the fact that the original was so compelling in its own right. The cast is impressive, but can we trust them to carry this installment?

Now, let's talk about "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come." This one's got my attention, mainly because Samara Weaving and Kathryn Newton are both on board as sisters trying to survive a deadly game. With Sarah Michelle Gellar and David Cronenberg in supporting roles, it seems like we're in for a bloody good time.

Last but not least, there's "Toy Story 5." I'm still trying to figure out why this franchise is so determined to keep going when the novelty has worn off. The premise sounds novel enough, but the fact that it's about technology taking over children's lives might make me think twice before shelling out for a ticket.

So, there you have it – three movies worth watching and three we can just let fade away.
 
Idk why studios keep rehashing old IPs 🤷‍♂️... like, Toy Story 5 is gonna be about AI taking over kids' lives? Sounds like a bunch of nostalgia-fueled cash-grab to me 🤑. I mean, can't they think outside the box for once? And what's with "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping" being a prequel that nobody asked for? Just because the original was good doesn't mean we need more 🙄. On the other hand, Ready or Not 2 does sound kinda interesting... Samara and Kathryn are always fun to watch 💀👯
 
Ugh I'm so done with these Hollywood reboots 🙄 - like what even is the point anymore? Can't they come up with something new for once? "The Devil Wears Prada 2" is literally just a lazy attempt to recreate magic from years ago... how about trying to create some magic in the first place? 😒 And don't even get me started on "Focker-in-Law"... who thought that was a good idea again? 🤣 It's like they're just phoning it in at this point.

On the other hand, I'm actually kinda stoked about "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" 😈 - Samara Weaving and Kathryn Newton are two of my fave actresses and Sarah Michelle Gellar is always a bonus. The cast is on fire for this one! 🎥 But seriously though, why do these franchises just keep going? Can't they just say "you know what?" to the whole thing when it's not working anymore? 🤷‍♀️
 
I'm so done with sequels trying to recapture lightning in a bottle 🤯! I mean, come on, "The Devil Wears Prada 2" has some big shoes to fill, but if it's not fresh and new, what's the point? And don't even get me started on "Focker-in-Law", that franchise is just too old for a revamp 🙅‍♀️. On the other hand, I'm actually kinda hyped for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" - those lead actresses are always good for some serious scares and action 💀!
 
I'm still on the fence about "The Devil Wears Prada 2" - it's got a solid cast but I think they're trying too hard to recreate the magic of the first film 🤔. On the other hand, I'm low-key hyped for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" with Samara Weaving and Kathryn Newton starring - that sounds like a wild ride 🎃.

But let's be real, "Focker-in-Law" is just going to be a rehash of old jokes. Twenty-six years after the last one, I'm still not convinced they have anything new to offer 😒. And as for "Toy Story 5", can we just say it's time to let the toys retire? 🤖
 
I gotta say, this whole Hollywood sequel thing is like politics - old ideas getting recycled just to keep the status quo 🤔. I mean, "The Devil Wears Prada 2" tries so hard to recapture lightning in a bottle that it's almost like they're trying to relive Obama's presidency all over again 😂. And what's up with these Hollywood executives trying to cash in on old franchises? It's like the Republicans and Democrats both playing the same tired game of "keep the money train rolling" 🚂. Give me a movie that takes some risks, you know? Like "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come". That one's got my vote because it's trying to shake things up like a new government administration trying to fix the system 💪. The others just seem like more of the same old thing - stale jokes and tired premises 😴.
 
🤣 I gotta say, some of these movie titles are just begging to be made into memes! "Focker-in-Law" 😂, "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping" 🌅... it's like they're trying too hard to fit in and get attention. But hey, if the movies themselves live up to the hype, who cares? I'm just excited for something new and fun on the big screen! The fact that "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" has an all-star cast is definitely a selling point 🎥💪... fingers crossed it's worth watching!
 
I'm so hyped to see more female-led movies like "The Devil Wears Prada 2" but also I'm low-key annoyed that Hollywood is still relying on tired franchises like "Focker-in-Law". Can't they think outside the box for once? 😒 And what's with the obsession with sequels and prequels? Don't get me wrong, "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping" looks cool, but it feels like we're just rehashing old stories instead of innovating. 🤔
 
ugh i dont know how much more of these franchises they're gonna milk 🤯 "The Devil Wears Prada 2" is just trying way too hard to recapture that magic from the first one, you know? its like they're just throwing in old names and hoping people will still care. and "Focker-in-Law"? please dont even get me started. thats just a lazy cash-grab 🤑

on the other hand i am kinda stoked for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come". samara weaving is amazing and i love her in everything she does. and with sarah michelle gellar and david cronenberg on board, that sounds like a bloody good time to me 😏
 
omg u gotta watch ready or not 2 it looks so lit!!! 🤩 samara weaving & kathryn newton as sisters trying to survive this crazy game sounds insane 💀 i'm down for sarah michelle gellar & david cronenberg too!! 🎬 toy story 5 is gonna be a no from me tho idk how they're gonna keep it interesting after the novelty wore off 🤔
 
😂♂️ "The Devil Wears Prada 2" has the right cast but recapturing lightning is hard to do 🤔. Next up, Focker-in-Law seems like a lazy reboot, Ariana Grande needs better material 💁‍♀️. On a positive note, Scary Movie 6 could be funny with the Wayans crew 👻. Toy Story 5 feels stale, tech over kids might not fly 🚫
 
omg u guys i just saw the trailer for "The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping" and tbh i'm lowkey excited lol my fave actress jennifer lawrence is not in this one but idk who's going to carry the movie 🤔 maybe they'll pull off a miracle lol also can we talk about how they're rehashing the same plot as the original?? that was so good and now they wanna just add more? no thanks 🙅‍♀️
 
I'm not sure I share the excitement about "The Devil Wears Prada 2". It feels like they're trying to recapture a lightning in a bottle that was already struck. The original was great, but sequels rarely live up to the hype. And what's with the long gap between installments? Did the cast just forget how to play their characters or something? 😐

On the other hand, I'm all for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come". A bloody good time is exactly what I'm looking for from a horror-comedy. The cast looks like they'll bring the laughs and screams in equal measure. And let's be real, who doesn't love a good game of survival? 💀

As for "Toy Story 5", I'm just not convinced it's worth the hype. It feels like they're trying to cash in on the nostalgia rather than actually delivering something new and interesting. The theme of technology taking over childhood is timely enough, but if executed poorly, it could be a major letdown 🤖
 
I'm not sure about "The Devil Wears Prada 2" - I mean, the original was pretty iconic, so do they really need to reboot it? 🤔 And as for "Focker-in-Law", I think the franchise is already in a bit of a rut. Twenty-six years is like, forever in movie years. 💀

On the other hand, I'm kinda stoked about "Scary Movie 6" - the cast looks hilarious and Anna Faris is always good for some laughs 🤣. And let's be real, a new installment of "Ready or Not" sounds like my cup of tea, especially with Samara Weaving on board 😏.

But come on, another "Toy Story" movie? Can we just leave the toys in the toy box and move on to something else? 🤖 I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the franchise as much as the next person, but this one's just feeling a bit stale.
 
I'm so hyped for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" 🤯! Samara Weaving and Kathryn Newton are literally my dream cast, I've been following them since "Happy Death Day" 💀👻. And with Sarah Michelle Gellar on board too, that's like a bonus for me 😆. I need to know what happens to those sisters, it sounds so intense and suspenseful! The more I read about this one, the more excited I get 🎉. Can't wait for the trailer drop!
 
Omg I'm totes hyped for "The Devil Wears Prada 2"!!! Anne Hathaway is literally my queen and I need more of her iconic style in this movie 🤩👗 I've been waiting for years for this sequel, so fingers crossed it's as fabulous as the first one 💅🎬
 
I gotta say, I'm low-key excited for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" 🎥💀. Samara Weaving is such a talented actress and I've heard great things about Kathryn Newton too. The cast sounds like it's got some serious chemistry going on. I'm also intrigued by the deadly game concept - it's not every day you see that in a movie 😏. And honestly, who doesn't love a good revenge story? As for the other movies... yeah, "Focker-in-Law" just doesn't sound like my cup of tea 🤢. The whole franchise has been going on for ages and I don't think it's due for another reboot.
 
omg, i'm so down for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" 🤯 with samara weaving and kathryn newton in the lead roles, that's a combo i'd pay to see! but honestly, how many more sequels can we handle? like, toy story 5 is already giving me "we're running out of ideas here" vibes 🎃 as for "the devil wears prada 2", i'm all about it, annie edwards would be so fierce in that seat 🙌
 
I gotta disagree with the whole "three to watch" vibe 🤔. The Devil Wears Prada 2 sounds like a rehash of old drama, not exactly what I'm in the mood for 🎭. And Focker-in-Law? Please, that franchise has been dead for years, let it stay buried 😂. As for Scary Movie 6, I don't think they can recapture the magic of the original... maybe not even come close 🔮. The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping just sounds like unnecessary expansion to me 🚫. And don't even get me started on Ready or Not 2: Here I Come - a sequel that's gotta live up to the original? No thanks, let it fade into obscurity 🌑. Toy Story 5 is probably the one worth watching, but only because they might finally retire this franchise 🎉.
 
I'm soooo hyped for "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" 🎥😱 Samara Weaving is like, my new fave actress, and the combo of her and Kathryn Newton sounds straight fire 🔥! And can you even imagine Sarah Michelle Gellar in a horror movie? 😂 That's gotta be some quality acting going on. On the other hand, I'm super underwhelmed by "The Devil Wears Prada 2" 🤷‍♀️. I mean, don't get me wrong, the original was iconic and all, but can they really recapture that magic? And please, for the love of God, let's keep "Focker-in-Law" in the dustbin of comedy history 💥.
