Anyway, welcome to watch Mojo.

And today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 unnecessary origin stories.

If you like what you're hearing, be sure to check out the full song at the link below.

No, baby, no baby, you like it through this list.

We're taking a look at prequels and origin films that we simply did not need, whether it was for over explaining things or they were just plain bad.

Number 10 X Men Origins Wolverine It's no secret that X Men origins.

Wolverine is practically despised on a universal scale.

The writing was abysmally cliche.

The story was terribly uninspired, and, worst of all, Deadpool was anything but dead pool great, stuck in an elevator with five guys on a high protein.

Whole weird dreams really do come true.

Just shut critical.

Potshots aside, what puts this movie on the list is the time of its release.

By this 50.3 X Men movies had already come out with the adamantium men in tow, and we're far more entertaining to watch who didn't know Wolverine already.

Origins, on the other hand, felt like a lazy attempt to keep the franchise going while the studio scrambled to figure out what to do next about it.

Had Movie been somewhat decent, maybe fans would have been a little more forgiving.

But it wasn't so they weren't.

You go down this road, you're not gonna like what you find.

You wanted the animal, Colonel.

You got a number nine Hannibal rising.

Part of what made the silence of the limbs.

So terrifying was Hannibal Lecter's menacing presence and mysterious past.

Thanks to Anthony Hopkins performance, audiences were chilled to the bone from his disturbing demeanor.

Morning, Dr Lecter.

My name is Clarice Starling.

I speak with you, you're one of Jack Crawford's story could have ended there, but alas, here we are with Hannibal Rising, a prequel focused on how Hannibal became an infamous serial killer.

Unfortunately, the movie put Hannibal into a sympathetic light by making him an anti hero, which destroyed how he perceived the character.

Judging from the film's box office numbers.

And nobody was asking for Hannibal Lecter's origin story, I would've used a butcher's knife the swords of poop number eight Dracula untold, with the Marvel cinematic universe exploding in the 20 tens, everyone tried jumping on the bandwagon and developing their own cinematic universe is, however, if Iron Men was the massive plate of steaming cheese fries to start the emcee you buffet than Dracula.

Untold was universal serving of a few stale mozzarella sticks.

Sometimes the world no longer needs a hero, sometimes what it needs, with dull action and sheer negligence on the appeal of Dracula as a character, Dracula Untold felt like another I Frankenstein, a sad attempt to revitalize classic characters into edgy action heroes.

I was cast into being in the winter 17 95 a living corpse without a soul.

Universal Dust decided to have the money service, the new launching point for their dark universe, and we all know how that turned out.

Number seven Prometheus.

On the surface, Prometheus looked like it was bound to be another hit in the alien franchise.

Ridley Scott helming the project is director check.

Michael Fassbender, Charlie's Karen and Idris Elba is part of the main cast.

Check astounding visual effects with the story focused on where the Xena morphs came from check.

So what went wrong?

Well, let's put it this way.

Prequels and origin stories typically served to explain things and explain them well.

Prometheus only ended up bringing more material to the table That only stirred up more questions.

In other words, it did what a prequel should not do and left us wondering if we really needed this.

Number.

Six.

Catwoman.

Honestly, a Catwoman movie sounds like an excellent idea, which makes it a shame that the one we got in 2004 with such a disaster you know my friend Sally That's what she says about me, she says, that I'm fun deficient.

In addition to cheesy dialogue and bizarre cinematography, Catwoman put on a spectacle of negligence to its own source material, creating its own character with an entirely different back story than Selina Kyle's.

You like sushi?

That's good.

Wait.

If it isn't Selina Kyle or any of the other comic book characters who have dawned the persona, then this isn't a Catwoman movie.

What was the point of making a Catwoman movie?

If you aren't even using a character that audiences would be familiar with, this was just frustrating.

I can trust.

You have a fake number five Oz.

The great and powerful on paper, Oz the great and powerful seemed to be an excellent choice for a film friend.

Step this way.

See the most wondrous sights imaginable home from the owners of the After all, an origin story would be an effective way to reintroduce the franchise to newer audiences.

Unfortunately, the project was not thought out.

Well decorated war here.

Your grandmother?

Yes.

She was killed in battle.

Poor thing.

Which battle Which battle?

We're so many You've heard of The battle of kreplach.

The entire movie consisted of James Franco going around in swindling everyone.

Eventually causing one of the good witch is to become the wicked witch of the West and basically invading Oz to become its ruler.

Theme character comes off is a total jerk, leading us to wonder why he was chosen as the focus for an origin movie.

Not even director Sam Raimi had interest in making a sequel.

So what was the point in any of this?

Number four.

The Scorpion King to rise of a warrior.

The Scorpion King was already a pretty unnecessary origin story, not to mention one of the lesser entries in the Mummy franchise, and somehow they managed to top themselves by making a terrible prequel to a terrible prequel.

I will kill that bastard son.

Everyone knows he makes sacrifices to the dark gods, and they've given him black magical powers with ugly visuals.

Awful righting a predictable plot and production value that screams cheap rise of a warrior had absolutely no reason to exist when I decided I didn't like battles and candles just like I would reviews for this direct to video movie made the first Scorpion King look like a masterpiece by comparison, leaving many to wonder who thought continuing the series was a good idea?

And can you believe that there were three more Sequels made after this one?

How is that you see this?

Don't the legends say you'll lose your powers if you number three Dumb end Emperor When Harry met Lloyd.

If you aren't going to involve the original cast and crew, then why bother making a sequel or even a prequel?

That was precisely the question that was asked when the world was given Dumb and Dumber er, a prequel that showed how Harry and Lloyd became best friends.

Well, if you're genuinely curious to find out, you get your answer early on in the movie.

The rest of the 85 minute flick is bloated with bad jokes and annoying gags.

Nothing they do makes any sense, which is which is, which is why we created the especially All in all, Dumb and Dumber was not the type of movie that needed an origin story.

And remembering this mess suddenly makes dumb and dumber to seem much more digestible.

What, you should see the look on your face.

I got so good.

Number two Solo A Star Wars story With Star Wars going through an insanely aggressive resurgence in the late 20 tens, no one could have expected an origin story for Han Solo to become a box office bomb.

Good luck, Hans Seller, What have you flying in?

Some mates say solos failure stemmed from too much Star Wars content, while others would point to the film's mediocre quality.

I'm sure you've noticed that London has feelings for me, which makes working together difficult because I do not feel the same way about him.

Well, those would be plausible cause is another factor could be that audiences didn't care.

Did we really need a look into the smugglers?

Early years?

Look, I came up running scams on the streets of Cordelia was boosting a view 21 when I was 10.

Did we really need an explanation for how Han Min Chui was it really necessary to see the Kessel run?

No.

And yet Disney thought we needed Thio.

For some reason, I find a faster route.

There isn't one.

You can't make the Kessel run in less than 20 Part six.

Watch me before we get to the most unnecessary origin story of them all.

Here are a few dishonorable mentions.

Hell, listen, Sundance, he was naming you shooting me?

Oh, well, that's okay, guy.

Almost killed.

A rule is a tool.

Kids Music.

Now here is a monster who looks like a scare.

All right, Number one.

The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas Despite being a lousy movie, the 1994 movie adaptation of The Flintstones made nearly $300 million over it's relatively low budget.

Clearly enough, people knew the modern Stone Age family to see the movie, and yet universal would go on to make one of the worst prequels ever.

In 2000 The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas focused on developing backstories for the show's main characters.

Like how Fred met Wilma and how they adopted Dino.

However, it relied too heavily on coming up with explanations and forgot to be a good movie.

Besides, The Flintstones has been around since the sixties and is known by millions of people to this day.

Do we really need an origin story?

Do you agree with our picks?

Let us know in the comments.

What's it gonna be?

You're right for me.

No, baby, no.
