@@anhurtorrez yeah, but first of it kept the spirit of the books, and second of all plenty of great films deviate from there source material. Honestly as a whole trilogy lord of the rings is a masterpiece, but two towers is easily the best of the trilogy at least in my opinion.
@@evanrusselburg8027 I really didnt get that sort of feeling when I watched it. The only thing I liked better with the movies then the books is how they showed the different parties doing there thing around the same time, where they jumped back and forth between them, while in the Book they showed one party group to a certain point, then switched it to another to a certain point and the book ends.
@@anhurtorrez well agree to disagree, I felt the fact that the elves came to helms deep and that there were less people at the battle really solidified the idea of fear and hope of the two towers. Plus I feel gollums character as well as the others are given more depth than anything else. Plus I think samwise's monologue is one of the best monologues ever written.
@@anhurtorrez I mean they still deviated a lot in the first like Pippin went with Sam and Frodo since the start and Marry joined them just as they were leaving the farm and also no Tom Bombadil but I still haven't read the second so I don't know how much more it devastates.
Aliens hands down but T2 is second for sure! The first Terminator is a damn good film so T2 wasn't as much as an evolutionary jump in entertainment value as Aliens was from its predecessor IMO of course.
@@keeljones2962 i certainly didn't like nicholson as Joker i agree on that. keaton wasn't great as Batman but way better than Kilmer or Clooney and only slightly worse than Bale
I don’t necessary think Aliens is better than Alien, both are 10/10 in their respective genre, Aliens did the right thing in changing genre and formula, that’s why is so good, but on par with the first for me.
Gremlins 2 better than the first? WTF!? Take it out and add Shrek 2 to your list and you're good. Oh wait. There was a rule against animation. LotR: The Two Towers?
I was about to comment that Gremlins 2 better be #1...#17 is a travesty. Gremlins was a kinda dull horror movie, and they made something spectacular in the sequel.

I like the first one more, but the second film did what the first one promised and did not deliver - the chaos in the city, so the 2nd film is what fans wanted the first to be.
T2, Dark Knight, Spider-Man 2, Aliens, Empire Strikes Back are all undeniably better sequels. But LOTR: The Two Towers really deserved a mention at the very least.
As a kid I found Captain America The First Avenger boring (though The Star Spangled Man With A Plan Song was catchy) but Winter Soldier and Civil War were definitely action packed.
The Hunger Games was great but Catching Fire was AMAZING! Everyone nailed it. The actors were fantastic, Francis as a director, the screenplays was great, the music was spectacular.
Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, X-Men: Days of Future Past, The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug, Undisputed 2, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, American Pie 2, and Raid 2
@@DerkuiDerkui Here's the correct order. Star Wars A New Hope The Empire Strikes Back Return of the jedi The Empire and Return of the jedi are sequels to a New Hope, so yes both are sequels. That's why I didn't mention A New Hope because it started the franchise while the other two are sequels. Check the sources bruh
I've never considered that a sequel since those films were always made clearly as 3 parts to a whole. Each movie isn't really its own story to where a new foundation needs to be built for the sequel, they're basically one big movie.
The source material for _'The Hunger Games'_ was way better than any of the sequels when it was originally introduced in Japan under the title _'Battle Royale'..._
"The Godfather PT 2" "From Russia With Love" "Aliens" "U.S. Marshals" "Blade Runner 2049" "Avengers: Infinity War" "War For The Planet Of The Apes" "The Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King" (They are my favorite film sequels of the original film. I can never understood why Terminator 2 always be on top of the best sequel? Nice List!)
@RandomGaming2.0 it's the sequel to the film "The fugitive" with harrison ford, where he's framed for murder and tries to prove his innocence. Us marshalls is a lot like that, but with wesley snipes, and it's some agents he supposedly killed instead of a wife
You can’t really compare Alien and Aliens because the movies are two different genres of horror. People can prefer either for multiple reasons. They’re also both really good, and if you haven’t already, I urge you to watch both of them (not alien 3, that one kinda sucked).
@@assembled1855 False. Newt was killed off because pre-production draft writer Vincent Ward (along with subsequent scriptwriters) found the character annoying. Furthermore, her death (along with that of Cpl. Hicks and, to some extent, the destruction of the android Bishop) served as a means of creating intense personal loss for Ripley, which would in turn fuel her need to embark on a quest for redemption. Finally, _Alien³_ takes place on a prison planet, which is no place for _children!_ No; they belong on the battle-ravaged, Xenomorph-infested hellscape of LV-426!
Cameron should be on there for Aliens because he did something different from the first film but still awesome. Most people wanted to make the same film again, but he did something no one else wanted to do and that's why it worked.
I get what your saying about different genera but the video is only about sequels so it doesn't matter if there different genera you can still pick both apart in a way where it doesn't come down to preference of genera just to how the movie came out
Lethal Weapon 2? Final Destination 2? Scream 2? The Conjuring 2? Die Hard 2? Saw 2? The Expendables 2? The Mummy? Undisputed 2? Resident Evil 2? I prefer the original Alien, The Terminator, X-Men and even Spider-man movies
@@eazyshippuden7932 Terminator 1 is not better but it's much scarier and it brought the whole idea to the table. The Mummy 2 was more entertaining. As for scream - to each their own
No not Scream 2. That one really sucked. If any of the later sequels measured up to the first one, that would be Scream 3 and Scream 4. The second one was too weak and shouldn't have existed
Scream 2 was brought down for me with the weak way they killed Randy. For me, the original Scream hasn't been matched by any of the sequels and the only movie comparable in meta cultural impact since is Cabin in The Woods. But hey, to each their own.
I was just gonna say, in the case of the SW sequel trilogy, that flipped things on their head and made a not too cohesive trilogy. But that's an exception
Then again spin-off / reboot directed by Travis Knight Bumblebee was way better than the other Transformers films, a lot more better received than the others
YES. It felt like transformers. Not just because of the 80s setting, but it had more heart I wanna say. That and the original animated are just at the top
The Expendables 2 should be on here. Not only does the cast improve but the fan service for action movies gets bigger. great story line, enjoyable characters, great call backs to previous action hero movies and of course over the top action which is a joyride. And just to add the simplicity of Jean-Claude Van Damme's antagonist being called Vilain.
@Jose Moran exactly!! Ledger was amazing, but his character is just there because Nolan said so. There is no payoff at the end of the story, the inconsistencies are blatant and the pacing is all over the place. Batman Begins is by far the best in the trilogy.
If we're only talking 2nd installments, here are some other notable ones. Blade Runner 2049 T2 Trainspotting Kill Bill: Volume 2 10 Cloverfield Lane 28 Weeks Later Underworld: Evolution Before Sunset The Two Jakes Back To The Future: Part 2 The Color Of Money John Wick: Chapter Two If we include indirect sequels... Mission Impossible: Fallout, Ghost Protocol, Rogue Nation, III If we include remakes/future attempts The Thing (1980) Suspiria (2018) The Ring (2001)
I feel like the first two Terminator & Alien films mirrored each other with the fact that the first were dark and gritty thrillers while the sequals were action packed thrill rides.
In each case, the 1st is a SF-horror tale, whereas the second is a militaristic action yarn, especially Aliens (The storyline is effectively concluded as well in their respective "direct sequel" - though T:TSC (2 seasons on Fox, the broadcast entity) does offer an intriguing continuation).
Which is why Ridley Scott should have never allowed James Cameron to bastardize his perfect horror masterpiece with a cheesy '80s action fluff sequel! Smfh
What a great selection, Hotshots 2 would have been my 1st pick, when Charlie Sheen crashes the jet on the carrier as it gradually falling to pieces always cracks me up, " engine just died " , controler "doing great ", " there goes a wing ", controller, " doing fine ", " lost a wing ", controller, "everything looks good ", " there goes the other one ", controller " your ok ", " there goes the other one " , controller " looking good ", pile of scrap metal crashes onto deck with Charlie sitting in the middle of it. Cracks me up everytime.
Terminator 2, Aliens, Gremlins 2, Spider-man 2, X-Men 2, Mad Max 2 were NOT better than the original films. They were as great as original films. They just added more action scenes. Also, there is NO way Aliens was scarier than Alien. Are you serious with that crap?
Lol im sorry to burst your bubble but, T2 is farrrrrrrr better than the Original Terminator. Both are classics and iconic and i love them both, but you have to be drunk not to see T2 is a huge leap forward in everything over the original. And same goes with Spiderman 2!
@@dam185 Believe me sweetheart, you didn't burst anything with your own OPINION! Both Terminators films are different genres. Same with both Alien films. The first Terminator brought the whole idea and is much scarier. The second added ACTION coolness
While A Shot in the Dark (sequel to The Pink Panther), Dawn of the Dead, Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, Batman Returns, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and The Bourne Supremacy should've been on this list, Gremlins 2: The New Batch, Blade 2, Evil Dead 2, Paddington 2 and Spider-Man 2 are nowhere near their originals.
It was a more expensive remake rather than sequel...... Recast El as Antonio Banderas , original El plays one of the 3 in Desperado......once apon a time in Mexico is the official sequel👍
@@nel9357 are you serious? It's widely known that all 3 movies are part of Robert Rodriguez' "Mexico Trilogy". As in El Mariachi, then Desperado and concluding with Once Upon a Time in Mexico. Banderas took over the role from Carlos Gallardo. The later did make a cameo in Desperado, but not as the same character. He was also a co-producer on all the Mariachi movies. Rodriguez also re-shot the finale scene from Mariachi for the flashback scene in Desperado. Come on dude... The Mexico Trilogy is a staple from Rodriguez and it's been well know for being a full arc story of the same character and no reboots involved.

I'm sorry, but the original Godfather is considered one of the two greatest films ever made, along with Citizen Kane.
@Juan Mejia The mother of all sequels
So is godfather 3
What is Godfather Part II to you then? It's arguably the greatest sequel ever made.
@@RobertBurns71405 Part 2 more like, Part 3 is not on that level
@@radentstwo9793 It may have been. All I'm saying is that it's not as good as the original.
Kind of surprised LOTR:TTT didn’t make the list
It can't be in there. All three movies were awesome. None of them outshined the other.
Because it’s not a “sequel” per se, it’s a continuation of the same story.
Lord of the Rings more of a trilogy than a franchise.
I have the Mighty Ducks sequel on VHS
French Canadian
I’d add Rocky II.
#1: tHe DArk KnIgHt
Pretty surprised it was #4 lol
@@lightendavoid5060 you were close
@Jose Moran It might be lacking in some areas but damn if it ain't better than Batman Begins, that one was pretty meh imo
Is the weakest of that trilogy
@Jose Moran exactly!! Ledger was amazing, but his character is just there because Nolan said so. There is no payoff at the end of the story, the inconsistencies are blatant and the pacing is all over the place. Batman Begins is by far the best in the trilogy.
You picked the Wolverine over Logan? Logan's right up there with the Dark Knight in terms something more than a superhero movie
Logan is not a sequel to the 1st movie it is a third. Around the 30sec mark they said only sequel to the 1st movie

Thor Ragnarok, GotG 1 or 2, Frozen 1, Moana, Sweeney Todd, Nightmare Before Christmas, any Star Wars movie,
Indians Jones and Last Samurai are best

Can't disagree with most of the titles on this list, just their placement:
#1) Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan
#2) Terminator 2
#3) Aliens

If we're only talking 2nd installments, here are some other notable ones.

T2 Trainspotting
Kill Bill: Volume 2
10 Cloverfield Lane
28 Weeks Later
Underworld: Evolution
Before Sunset
The Two Jakes
Back To The Future: Part 2

John Wick: Chapter Two
If we include indirect sequels...
Mission Impossible: Fallout, Ghost Protocol, Rogue Nation, III
If we include remakes/future attempts
The Thing (1980)
Suspiria (2018)
The Ring (2001)
X-Men: Days of Future Past > X-2: X-Men United > X-Men
underworld 2 was not better and neither was br2049, John wick 2 was also disspointing, The third was really good
Feels like you just named sequels rather than better ones 😂😂😂
I hope winter soldier is on here that’s my fav mcu movie
Okay so it was on there, but it was lower than Paddington 2? Smh
Padding 2 is a master piece and so is winter soldier both in my top 10
I know right it's ridiculous
You forgot about Home Alone 2 lost in New York
no
Yup

Best list in weeks well done. Happy Thanksgiving
Whenever I see gremlins 2 I think of key & peele skit
That immediately came to mind for me too
I've watched T2 at least 50 times and in multiple languages. Really well done
I disagree on Godfather 2 being better than 1 tbh, outside of the vito scenes i think it's way weaker
I prefer the second part
You break my heart beatingstuff88!
Part 2 is good, but no way is better than The Godfather. Part 1 is pure classic, like a Mozart piece.
The Dark Knight immediatelly occured to me when I read the title.
Edit: aaahh it is on the list
Now I know why avengers is not on the list. They need their own list cuz every sequel is getting better and better.
Avengers 1 is the best of the 4 Avengers films by far.

I feel like the first two Terminator & Alien films mirrored each other with the fact that the first were dark and gritty thrillers while the sequals were action packed thrill rides.
In each case, the 1st is a SF-horror tale, whereas the second is a militaristic action yarn, especially Aliens (The storyline is effectively concluded as well in their respective "direct sequel" - though T:TSC (2 seasons on Fox, the broadcast entity) does offer an intriguing continuation).
Which is why Ridley Scott should have never allowed James Cameron to bastardize his perfect horror masterpiece with a cheesy '80s action fluff sequel! Smfh
What about Rocky II, or even Creed II
The godfather 2 is a phenomenal movie better not nearly as good as the first but both are still in the top 5 greatest movies list
No sequel will ever come close to how better and awesome Terminator 2 is
*how much better
There's better
What a great selection, Hotshots 2 would have been my 1st pick, when Charlie Sheen crashes the jet on the carrier as it gradually falling to pieces always cracks me up, " engine just died " , controler "doing great ", " there goes a wing ", controller, " doing fine ", " lost a wing ", controller, "everything looks good ", " there goes the other one ", controller " your ok ", " there goes the other one " , controller " looking good ", pile of scrap metal crashes onto deck with Charlie sitting in the middle of it. Cracks me up everytime.
Jaaames Cameron, the bravest pioneer.
No budget too steep, no sea too deep.
Who's that? Its him. James Cameron
And he had to screwed with Dark Fate
South Park lol
@@javiersantanaaviles5885 Not sure how much of that film is actually Cameron's idea.
@@Paulafan5 Well he was the one with the idea of killing Connor, after all he made the script
Terminator 2, Aliens, Gremlins 2, Spider-man 2, X-Men 2, Mad Max 2 were NOT better than the original films. They were as great as original films. They just added more action scenes. Also, there is NO way Aliens was scarier than Alien. Are you serious with that crap?
Lol im sorry to burst your bubble but, T2 is farrrrrrrr better than the Original Terminator. Both are classics and iconic and i love them both, but you have to be drunk not to see T2 is a huge leap forward in everything over the original. And same goes with Spiderman 2!
Mad max 2 is a lot easier to watch than the first.......apart from that , I agree 👍😀
@@dam185 T2 is a better Action....... Terminator is more horror..........T1 is way scarier than T2........both awesome👍
@@dam185 Believe me sweetheart, you didn't burst anything with your own OPINION! Both Terminators films are different genres. Same with both Alien films. The first Terminator brought the whole idea and is much scarier. The second added ACTION coolness
How old are you ?
"Too 10 Reasons Why Sandy Cheeks Should End Her Friendship With Spongebob and Patrick".
It should be opposite
Terminator 2 came out when I was in primary school and for FOUR years, all I could hear about was how much I was missing out.
They were right, though.
When they showed the Spider-Man 2 clip at the start of Superman 2’s position I though they just made a mistake.
I would have thought that ‘ouija origins’ would have got at least a special mention since it is a thousand times better than ‘ouija’
Wait didn't they say godfather was the best movie ever bout a month ago?
While A Shot in the Dark (sequel to The Pink Panther), Dawn of the Dead, Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, Batman Returns, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and The Bourne Supremacy should've been on this list, Gremlins 2: The New Batch, Blade 2, Evil Dead 2, Paddington 2 and Spider-Man 2 are nowhere near their originals.

You forgot Desperado. It was the sequel to El Mariachi
It was a more expensive remake rather than sequel...... Recast El as Antonio Banderas , original El plays one of the 3 in Desperado......once apon a time in Mexico is the official sequel👍
@@nel9357 no it's not... Robert Rodriguez even acknowledged this
@@jonathanmartin8113 it's on the DVD extras..........just watched them bro👍
@@nel9357 are you serious? It's widely known that all 3 movies are part of Robert Rodriguez' "Mexico Trilogy". As in El Mariachi, then Desperado and concluding with Once Upon a Time in Mexico. Banderas took over the role from Carlos Gallardo. The later did make a cameo in Desperado, but not as the same character. He was also a co-producer on all the Mariachi movies. Rodriguez also re-shot the finale scene from Mariachi for the flashback scene in Desperado. Come on dude... The Mexico Trilogy is a staple from Rodriguez and it's been well know for being a full arc story of the same character and no reboots involved.
@@jonathanmartin8113 Rodriguez : " we kind of remade El with a bigger budget & cast Antonio. " ........his words......watch the extras.......you got the DVDs yeh ?😁👍

I believe John Wick deserves an honorable mention, but I agree with the number 1 pick.
As much of a meme as the franchise is, Shrek 2 is not only better than the first, but one of the best animated movies of all time
Yesssss
22 Jump Street killed me. Especially when the girl was clowning him about how old he looked lol. And D3 Mighty Ducks.
When are you going to do the animated sequels better than the original list by the way
My honourable mention: Godzilla: King of the monsters
Godfather pt 2. Better than the first????
(LAUGHS IN ITALIAN)
I wouldve included The Devil's Rejects since that is a well more known sequel for House Of 1000 Corpses
It's just a shame they made a third one...
