What are some movies that basally killed a series off?
I guess you can say Jaws 4 did that it's been 25 years since the last movie only way we would ever see a new one if it's a remake.
Of course I wonder with what we now know about Sharks that might have something to do with it

The Blair Witch sequel and that is amazing considering it was at the start of the decade where even Wrong Turn had numerous direct to DVD sequels

Does Batman & Robin and Spider-Man 3 count?

Does Batman & Robin and Spider-Man 3 count? I doubt it, because they caused their franchise to be rebooted rather than ended |

They certainly killed a specific incarnation of the franchise, but if "the franchise" refers to the character in film, then no, rather than killing the franchise, they caused the producers to stop and retool it. I think many franchises currently regarded as dead, like Jaws for example, could probably come back now and be successful, since enough time has passed for the flawed episode in the series which caused the "death" to be either forgotten or ignored. |

The Legend of Chun-Li all but did in Street Fighter movies. I wouldn't be shocked if we never saw another one.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance has most likely destroyed any chance of seeing another film until the rights of the character revert back to Marvel.

Eh....what else could they have done anyway? The same storyline but this time...in space? |

Superman 4, although Superman 3 should've been the end.

If Fox doesn't reboot it and pull it out of its coma, I'd say Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

Were there any plans in making the Inheritance Cycle into a film franchise? If so, Eragon killed that dead.

Of course I wonder with what we now know about Sharks that might have something to do with it Since the last Jaws movie, we've discovered that those goddamn things jump out of the f***ing water to kill you. They're even MORE evil now, yet that movie was so bad, they just can't reboot the franchise. |
