In moviedom, {{Sequelitis}} is the most common cause of FanonDiscontinuity. It's very common to hear fans of a popular movie series disavow all sequels beyond a certain point, typically the first or second movie. For example, the unofficial slogan of the ''{{Highlander}}'' fandom is, "There Should Have Been Only One." FanonDiscontinuity also tends to arise when an audience has been dealt a particularly bad WallBanger.

FanonDiscontinuity is the act of fans mentally writing out certain events in a show's continuity which don't sit well, no matter if it's a single episode, [[Main/DorkAge a season-length arc]], an entire season or even an entire ''series''. If a plot or [[SnicketWarningLabel ending]] rubs one the wrong way severely enough, fandom can just decide that the offending events never happened. On the series level, events may fall under Discontinuity because the show is perceived to [[Main/JumpingTheShark suck at that point]]. Events also get "discontinued" for particularly screwing up the characters or setting, and a show that starts to suck will end up screwing things up eventually anyway.
