Give me a movie franchise, where the first one was bad, but the second one was good

Like what I mean is the first movie was absolute shit, but the second movie was a cinematic masterpiece that the only thing holding The movie back is the fact that you have to watch a really bad movie first to get the context Needed to understand, and I mean that by quality of the film, the acting reception from critics and box office numbers
