What stand alone movies were meant to be a franchise, but never did?

I will like to say Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant from 2009. The movie came out in the heels of the Twilight franchise. Obviously, the Twilight franchise, regardless of your opinion on the movies, were an actual success. However, Cirque de Freak never went anywhere. It received mixed reviews and was a box office flop. They canceled the other movies because of it. Funny, I was actually one of the few people who saw it in theaters in 2009, so I can make the claim saying that I did help with the money a little bit.
