Hmmm...never thought of it that way. I think the trilogy is supposed to be individual films with the same character like the Indy movies. The last one is supposed to be the finale and I always took the acquisition of the poncho at the end as signal that the blondie character is indeed the "man with no name" who finally has his "poncho of power" if you want to get into super hero talk stuff.

Is the craptacular Alien vs. Predator the only movie to be both a sequel AND a prequel? (i.e. it's a sequel to the Predator movies, but a prequel to the Alien movies)

Favorite Prequel
How about:
(1) God of Gamblers III (prequel to God of Gamblers) starring Leon Lai which I liked better than God of Gamblers I or II.
(2) I concur with Infernal Affairs II better than Infernal Affairs.
(3) Iron Monkey - a prequel to the Once Upon A Time in China series starring a young Wong Fei Hong.
(4) One could argue that A Better Tomorrow III is better than A Better Tomorrow.
