If Hollywood studios can make a franchise out of a property, you can bet it's gonna happen. Some become huge hits, like Fast & Furious and John Wick. But every once in awhile, things just don't work out, and there's no choice but to shut down production and move on — even if the story hasn't reached its conclusion. Here are a few movie franchises that ended before their final chapter...

I can stand sequels if they're good. Prequels? Not so much.

I dig prequels as much as sequels. For example, I dig Beneath the Planet of the Apes, and I thought Vacancy 2 was great.

When you say that you "dig prequels as much as sequels", do you consider BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES (1970) to be a prequel or a sequel?

You know what, you're right. There are no prequels in this saga.

I've been a huge fan of the original APES film series ever since I was a child. In fact, my mother was also. We watched them - collectively or individually - whenever the opportunity arose. Of course I now own the film series on DVD, so I no longer have to keep my fingers crossed that they will show up on TV.

However, the point is, technically, that because the film series proceeds along a circular journey through time and basically ends "when" it began, you could theoretically start viewing with any random film in the series and just keep going, in the "correct" order, until you've seen them all. Just a thought...

I think I agree.
The next installments, "Escape from" and "Conquest of", aren't technically prequels, but are such a thing time-wise.
Plus, "Battle for" seems to be the state the world winds up in. Time after time.
