Nah. Usually the middle ones suck. But that mostly applies to trilogies.
I think the first ones are usually worst...

Yeah, it depends on your opinion.

However, the first is at least second best, as it is the novel that boosts the series to fame...usually. Leatherstocking tales is one exception.

Ptolemy's Gate is probably my favourite ending ever.

The worst? The ending of the Fionavar Tapestry.

Amen.
The Last Harry Potter was pretty good, but not the best.

Well the ending was ok, it's the epilogue that was vague and uncertain.

Well.
Epilogues are short.
I have to admit, It left me wanting more.

Not counting spinoffs, Hollywood isn't counting those.

nooo, In the series.
I.e., what movie is coming out next.
They're adapting the main kid series, not the spinoffs.

If the last one just came out next year then I doubt it. Unless they filmed the two movies at the same time.
