9 Sci-Fi Movies That Were Supposed to Be the Next Big Franchise

Hollywood keeps greenlighting trilogies before anyone's bought a ticket and somehow still making bad movies. In this video, we're counting down 9 sci-fi films that had every resource they needed to launch a franchise, and collapsed before the sequel ever got made. Bad casting, studio interference, wrong directors, and in at least one case, a 294-page franchise document that included a cologne line. Which one deserved a second chance? Drop it in the comments. Movies covered in this video: Jumper (2008) I Am Number Four (2011) After Earth (2013) Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) Mortal Engines (2018) Ender's Game (2013) Jupiter Ascending (2015) The Dark Tower (2017) Tomorrowland (2015) #FailedFranchises #SciFiMovies #SciFi
