But in the case of Godfather or Terminator, they did deserve a sequel, both after the first one and the second one. It's just that the second sequel didn't deliver. I believe a better example would be Taken. It's a fun movie, but nowhere near interesting enough to continue the storyline. Jaws is another good example.

I get you. I guess they didn't deserve the threequel

Actually, I think that while The Godfather II is obviously a very well made movie it feels really redundant and just treads the same themes and essentially the same character arc as the first one.
