A less obvious one is The Blues Brothers.
That would almost be as bad as making a sequel without one of the main characters.

I was under the impression nobody gave a shit about FMJ once D'Onofrio and R. Lee Ermey are done.

Pretty much this. Maybe a few minutes past that, since the "five dollar me love you long time" scene is jumped to right after boot camp, but yeah, I think the vast majority of people don't stick around for the second half of the movie. Maybe on the initial viewing, but certainly not on a rewatch.

Honestly, the story in general. There hasn't been a Robin Hood movie I watched where I went "holy shit that was actually good!"

Now this would've been interesting.
I actually respected the Crowe Robin Hood for discussing the elephant in the room that exists with that story as it dealt with what could happen to the titular character once John became King of England.

Home Alone doesn't make logical sense anymore since airport security is nuts now.

I remember watching the Assault on Precinct 13 remake and wondering how they would get around this. Turns out the bad guys have magical cellphone jamming technology.

Interesting fact. D.W. Griffith made two films before Birth of a Nation, that actually criticized the actions of white men, and the government called Ramona, and The Redman's View. But yeah, this man created racial stereotypes, and damaged relations felt to this day. If it makes anyone happy? He died alone and broke.
