Not sure why Highlander should be included in this over something like Police Academy.

No Highlander movie has ever made significant money.

Highlander
Budget: $19 million
Box Office: $12.8 million

Highlander 2
B: $34m
BO: $15.6m

Highlander 3
B: $26-34m
BO: $36.7m

Highlander Endgame
B: $25m
BO: $15.8m

Highlander: The Source
B: $12m
BO: $213k

vs.

Police Academy
B: $4.5m
BO: $149.8m

Police Academy 2
B: $7.5m
BO: $115m

Police Academy 3
B: $12m
BO: $106.7m

Police Academy 4
B: $17m
BO: $78.6m

Police Academy 5
B: $14m
BO: $54.5m

Police Academy 6
B: $15m
BO: $33.2m

Police Academy 7
B: $10m
BO: $126k

I mean it took 7 movies before one was a commercial failure for Police Academy (and 7 was largely a straight to video release) and unless you think one is better than the first one, I'd say it qualifies.
Well, all the Police Academy movies are good, and almost all the Highlander sequels suck, for one.
