I hate the rehabilitation bullshit. If you want to enjoy them ironically or rewatch the handful of decent action sequences then that’s fine, but the whole “actually, the sequels weren’t as bad as people said” thing is infuriating. They aren't good. They’re bad. They were bad when they came out, and they’re still bad now. They haven’t “aged well” or “found a place in the current media landscape” or whatever. They suck, we spent two decades analyzing precisely how and why they suck, and the issue is closed.
