10 Upcoming Movie Sequels That Are Completely Unnecessary
5. Jackass 4
As incredible as it sounds, despite all of the movies arriving after the TV series had peaked in cultural relevance, Jackass became one of the most profitable franchises in Paramount's arsenal after the three extended sketch shows and one spinoff raked in almost $490m at the box office on combined production costs of just over $50m.
Even more surprisingly, the first installment is the only one that isn't Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, but with the gang having largely been away from our screens for a decade at this point, do we really need Jackass 4? Regardless of whether you asked for it or not, Johnny Knoxville and the crew will be back next July to turn your stomach.
Sure, Jackass always boasted a sense of camaraderie, humor and warmth in among all of the disgusting escapades, but are people really going to be interested in seeing a bunch of middle-aged dudes putting themselves through intense physical pain and gag-inducing skits in the name of entertainment? You know what, some people probably will.
