12 Recent Movie Sequels That Outrageously Ruined Great Characters

12. Fast X - Giselle

The Fast and Furious franchise has become a complete parody of itself and it's falling apart more and more with each film.

One of the main reasons for this is that death now means absolutely nothing. While high stakes weren't ever these movies' specialty, right now any sense of danger is practically non-existent.

Bringing Han back in F9 was bad enough, but the recent Fast X really took the biscuit by resurrecting Giselle (Gal Gadot) at the end.

No matter how they explain her survival of a seemingly unsurvivable fall in Fast and Furious 6, it's probably going to be a groan-worthy piece of storytelling.

Previously, Giselle was a good, likable character; after this ridiculous resurrection, viewers will probably just roll their eyes at the sight of her. Worse still, this completely ruins one of the few Fast and Furious moments that could be called genuinely affecting.
