The Empire Strikes Back (1980) is my pick for the sequel that is better than the original.
I'm sure Cody didn't mention that one just because it's too cliche. Lol
That’s a solid pick forsure
Me to
It's a great sequal.
Same
I’m really surprised The Dark Knight didn’t even make the list but still a great list.
Look at his reviews, he’s given his reasons why he’s not quite as high on The Dark Knight. In fact I think he prefers Batman Begins over The dark knight.
@@bassmanplays7285 smart man
@@cyrus2546 they're about even to me i give begins a lot of credit because origin stories are harder to make and batnan begins nailed it.
@@joeywalker2061 the villains are kinda boring in Begins. Scarecrow was cool but he got taken out in seconds and never did anything. Compared to the Dark Knight that has a WAY better suit and Heath Ledger’s joker and Two-Face is awesome
@@austinreed347 joker is the best but i didn't much care for two face especially compared to joker
Terminator 2 is quite possibly my favorite sequel of all time. Keep up the great work
It's my favourite movie of all time, it's perfect.
@@tjclarke6074 my favorite film as well
DEFINITELY agreeing with Child's Play 2. Probably my favorite of the franchise
The best sequels ever
1. Aliens A+
2. Terminator 2 A+
3. Indiana Jones and the last Crusade A+
4. The Godfather 2 A+
5. Fury Road A+
6. Blade Runner 2049 A
7. 28 Weeks Later A
8. Batman Returns A
9. Empire Strikes Back A
10. Army of Darkness A
The Last Crusade & BR 2049 are two of my favorite movies ever made
I agree with this list with the exception of 2. I would say Evil Dead 2 is better than Army of Darkness. And The Rise of Skywalker is the best sequel.
Just kidding Empire is the best. Was serious about Evil Dead 2 though. Good list.
Replace Batman returns with The Dark Knight
@@diegocontact4631 nah.
28 weeks later was terrible
1. The Dark Knight (this may be overrated as a superhero film, but to me it’s a crime thriller featuring a superhero)
2. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (my thoughts are about the same as yours on this film)
3. Aliens (I love the story of this movie and action in it. There’s still Horror elements to it. But I love the story and the performances).
4. Terminator 2: Judgement Day (thoughts similar to yours Cody. But believe it or not this is the one I saw first. The only reason I saw it first was because my dad was introducing me to Robert Patrick who was about to be cast John Doggett in the X Files. So yes, thanks to my father and x Files I saw this movie and fell in love)
5. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (I enjoyed the first avenger but this one is just incredible).
6. Mission Impossible: Fallout (I didn’t get the chance to see this one in theaters, but when I saw this at home after renting it I immediately bought it and watched again lol. This movie is awesome. It is hard to choose between this one and Ghost Protocol)
7. Star Wars Episode V: the Empire Strikes Back (a classic sequel. A New Hope feels really mediocre to this one even if it was groundbreaking. This one has my favorite version of Vader in this. He’s at his most menacing and villainous.)
8. X2: X-Men United (this sequel blew me away in theaters. I had enjoyed the first one but didn’t watch it a lot. But this one was just amazing with its story and everything )
9. John Wick Chapter 2 (I was surprised by the first movie even more surprised that they got better here. While 3 has some great stuff in it, it feels like it focused more on the action rather than the story. Chapter 2 focuses more on story and is probably the best of the bunch.)
10. Spider Man 2 (Sam Raimi/Toby McGuire)-another movie experience in theaters for me. What a sequel to an already great movie. Also features one of the big screen’s greatest villain performances.)
- Aliens
- Terminator 2
- Child’s Play 2
- Friday the 13th: Part 2
- The Dark Knight
- Spider-Man 2
- Empire Strikes Back
- Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
- Toy Story 3 (I’d say its better than 1 and 2)
- American Pie 2 (unpopular opinion here)
The thumbnail had dark knight & mad max fury road. Friday the 13th part 6,4, & 2 is better than the original. Avengers Infinity War. Godfather part 2, empire strikes back, Annabelle creation, strangers prey at night.
Dark knight would be number 1 for me, EASILY my favourite superhero film and one of my all time favourite films
I was just watching friday the 13th 2009 yesterday and ohhh man godamn is it good
It might be the best Friday the 13th if it weren't for the insufferable characters. I really couldn't give a shit who died in that movie.
@@WindyCityNick yeah the characters are probably the reason why I haven't bothered to watch the remake as much as the others. I do like Jason in it tho. But I prefer ones like chapters 1 thru 6 that has a decent amount of likable characters and chapter 4 being my favorite of the franchise, you can't go wrong with the people in it
@@AlexWeberg Yeah two is my personal favorite actually
@@WindyCityNick yeah the annoying characters killed that movie for me. Just insufferable d bags that are grating on the nerves. Worst of the series to me.
My Top 5 Favorite Sequels
1. Spider-Man 2
2. Return of the Jedi
3. Shrek 2
4. X2: X-Men United
5. Toy Story 2
Return of the Jedi and Toy Story 2 were great picks. I agree whole heartedly.
Yes!! I’m happy that I am not alone in that! I love Toy Story 2 more than the original!
I've watched spiderman 2 so many times. Definitely my favorite spiderman and comic book movie. Tobey maguire will always be my favorite for the role
@@AlexWeberg excellent choice
Only the second movies:
The Dark Knight
The Empire Strikes Back
Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan
Temple of Doom
Spider-Man 2
Superman 2
Lord of the Rings Two Towers
Captain America The Winter Soldier
X-Men Days of Future Past
Terminator 2
Batman Begins > TDK
Clearly the best sequel is Trolls 2, but to be serious Spider-Man 2, The Dark Knight and T2: Judgement Day, X2, Xmen Days of future past and Star Wars Episode 5: Empire strikes back are some of the best.
I would disagree, Troll 2 is far better!
Days of Future Past is so underrated. It's a fantastic film. Great story, great action, and great themes as well. With how much money comic book films make it's a shame we don't get movies of that quality more often.
@@jalenjohnson1662 a lot of X-Men movies are underrated, Wolverine is the best example of that.
For me Bad Boys 2 was much better than the first it was just filled to the brim with action and it had some of my favorite action scenes in a movie.
Spider-Man 2 will forever my favourite sequel, kept me going through some dark times
Same. Not only my favorite sequel, not just my favorite Spider-Man movie, it’s my favorite movie of all time.
Mycah J for sure 🙌🏽🕷🕸
Thank you so much for picking my idea! So glad to be apart of the Leach brotherhood!
Great list Cody.
Same #1 for me. Still the template for how you do a sequel for me.
Thanks for all the great content during these crazy times.
1. Avengers 2: Age of Ultron
2. Blade 2
3. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
4. Spider-Man 2
5. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
6. Child's Play 2
7. Terminator 2
8. 28 Weeks Later
9. Godzilla: King of the Monsters
10. The Dark Knight
11. Furious 7
Age if ultron is good but not even close to the original
would agree apart from age of ultron I saw it 3 times in cinema wanted to love it so bad but just never clicked with me personally
Highly disagree with Age of Ultron
Age of ultron is not good😓 wanted to like it tho
But it is your opinion
Cody is on point in his dissections of why he chose the movie he did over the original. I’m 50 and watch these young bucks with a very critical eye because most of them are fanboys of one sort or another, but Cody shows us here that he has a true understanding of cinema and understands why people may appreciate the originals. This is good work...
I feel like because "El Mariachi" was a low budget film done in Mexico, people overlook "Desperado" as a killer sequel. I watched the SHIT out of that in 90s.
Agreed. Both El Mariachi and Desperado were kick-ass films. Didn't really like Once Upon a Time in Mexico, though. Was ok but could've been better.
I honestly can’t chose between the first two terminator movies, I love them both equally, to me, they are both perfect.
Amazing films. I remember in that gap between t2 and when t3 finally came out. I wanted a t3 so bad. Now there's been so many shitty sequels. Those first 2 were perfect movies imo.
What I think makes ur content incredible is the tiny stories when ur doing the reviews. Like why u didn’t like mi 3 when it came out because he jumped on couches. Terrific.
Caught this one early, have a great day Cody!
Child's play 2
A nightmare on elm street 3 dream warriors
Damien omen 2
The dark knight
Spiderman 2
Final destination 3
One of the main reasons is because with someof these sequals they go deep in depth in the character and explores the interesting elements. Great video cody as always brother plus I've been getting into breaking bad I love it huge fan of it ❤
You just mentioned my all time favorite M:I movie! I freaking love you and this channel!!!
P.s. that kinda sounded weird lol but still you're literally the most awesome guy ever and you're the reason I started my UA-cam channel.
And if you have any advice on top ranking or movie review videos, it would be much appreciated! Thanks Cody!
I always find it interesting when someone says 28 Weeks Later is better than 28 Days Later. I 100% agree with you on the opening of Weeks being scary as hell. Its in my Top 10 Openings of All Time. (That's a great video idea). Unfortunately, to me, the rest of the movie never reaches the greatness of the opening. You have the scene where the father reunites with you know who but other than that, I think the movie is just forgettable.
28 Days Later on the other hand has a great opening and it continues to get better. It has a great group of survivors that continuously have great chemistry building scenes, scary ass zombie scenes and it has a great final act. I'm also a fan of the grimy look the movie has.
yes.
i’m so happy you put Dawn on this list. When that movie came out I couldn’t believe my eyes. A masterpiece.
Is the difference between alien and aliens and T1 and T2 is razor thin to you or its a landslide ? I have this inner struggle for these movies since forever! Watched war for planet of the apes last week, some CGI is hit and miss but pretty good over all. Thx for the great video!
I’m blown away that Dream Warriors didn’t find its way onto here
He explained because the gap between the 2 wasn't as vast as the ones on the list. Probably why Dark Knight didn't make it either.
@@dormammusubjective5774 he likes begins more im pretty sure
Great list Cody-some of my faves in there.
5.)The Bad News Bears In Breaking Training.
4.)John Wick 2
3.)Gremlins 2 : The New Batch
2.)Descendants 2
1.)Diary Of A Wimpy Kid : Roderick Rules
Love the videos man! And 100 % agree with you on Captain America: The Winter Soldier. It’s my fav MCU movie and I just love the story and characters in it. The action was top notch too.
T2 is my favorite movie of all time. Flawless!
I agree with you about everything, but i absolutely agree with you on 28 weeks later!!! I watched it last night for the first time and boy was it good, it was shot in high quality and for that reason alone it's much better
10. Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part 6- The reason I picked this one is because it was the first Friday the 13th I saw so it has sedimental value for me. Whenever someone asks me what's the definitive Jason movie I immediately think this. Jason's portrayal as this undead slasher was defined in this movie and it provides good humor in between the scares.
9. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes- Pretty much everything you said Cody. Rise was good but Dawn was the shit! I love how it builds the relationship of the apes more and Caesar's standoff with Koba was awesome.
8. The Conjuring 2- I liked the first Conjuring but I was not as high on it as everyone else. I honestly much rather prefer the sequel probably because it reminds me so much of The Exorcist. The characters are all great and you really feel scared for the little girl in the movie. I also found the demon to be much more frightening maybe it's because I'm a religious person but when I first saw that demon nun it scared the crap out of me in that painting scene. Surely if they make a movie around that Nun it would instantly be great. Right?
7. Godzilla King of the Monsters- As of the sequel to the 2014 Godzilla i adored this movie. It's in my top 3 for the entire franchise which consists of 35 movies. I enjoyed the characters in the movie and I was deeply moved by the scene with Serizewa. However the monsters are truly the star in this picture. Each are given distinct personalities and they're all depicted as ancient deities which i loved. When Godzilla and Ghidorah charged each other i won't say it was my most hype movie experience but it's up there. Also say what you will about the movie but if you say that Bear McCreary's score sucked you are just wrong.
6. Avengers Infinity War- I was going to pick either this or Endgame but I find myself going back to Infinity War more often. I feel it's because the whole movie feels like the climax and each character gets their moment to shine. Thanos' buildup was so big we thought Marvel couldn't possibly pay it off but they did and Josh Brolin as Thanos is chilling yet sympathetic which is a necessity for a villain like this.
5. Empire Strikes Back- It had to be on here somewhere. It utilizes a darker tone and it works so well. Vader is much more built up as a villain and a character and Yoda breathed so much life in this universe.
4. Phantasm 2- I'm someone who loved the first Phantasm but understood how people can find it boring and confusing. This sequel feels more straightforward but it throws so much at you. You got chainsaw duels, sentinels doing crazy stuff, shape-shifting demons, and of course the Tall Man played by Angus Scrimm who gives some of his most badass lines in this film. Other than that you really feel this comrodery between Mike and Reggie that make you go "yeah stop this guy". Tge score is just as good if not better. Not to mention the quad barrel shotgun feels like it csme straight out of a Doom game. BOY!
3. The Dark Knight- I get how people think it's overrated but I don't care because it still is a badass movie. What else can be said about Heath Ledger's Joker. It's instantly iconic and plays well off of Bale's Batman. While many can debate how much it's hold up over the years there's no doubt that the Dark Knight set a standard for comic films for years to come.
2. Aliens- An ingenious idea, just take the first movie and make it plural. This is the movie that makes Ripley the badass and introduces so many marines that you get attached to and scared for when bad stuff happens. The aliens are terrifying and expanded upon with their hive and the standoff with the queen is one of the best climaxes in film.
1. Terminator 2- From one James Cameron sequel to another James Cameron sequel Terminator 2 takes the already awesome first film and takes it to another level with its actions and emotion. Sarah Connor becomes the badass, Arnold gives his best performance utilizing that robotic style with actual emotional moments that builds on this relationship with young John that leads to one of the saddest sacrifices in film. Not to mention the T1000 being the greatest villain the franchise and one of the best villains period
*Just wondering do you plan on doing a Top 10 Favorite Horror Icon list Cody?*
What did you think of Godzilla vs kong?
Loved it as well
@@anthonyhudak9363
Yeah me too. It was my favorite of the monsterverse films.
Hi Cody, I've loved all of your reviews. Will it be possible if you can review the Final Destination franchise? That would be great.
I know it’s popular to say T2 is better than T1 and TDK is better than Batman Begins but I disagree with both of those.
I loved Batman Begins more than The Dark Knight. T1 and T2 are on the same level of awesome. The rest of the terminator franchise belongs in a landfill.
You are not alone
@@Deadpool784 👍🏻
You ever thought about doing an animated series review like the simpsons depends on the era or south park also 28 weeks later is Hella underrated tbh
I am dying for a top ten favourite movies of all time. Come on Cody. Dying to hear it.
Yer Boy! Aliens and T2 for sure. Childs Play 2 is also my fave in the franchise. Great video Cody 😁👍
I just watched your top 10 Adam Sandler movies and I got an idea, I'm not sure if you've seen a lot of Saturday night live sketches, but I think you should do a list of your 10 favorite sketches of you've actually watched Saturday night live
Lol 😂 Great shirt Boss
There’s a few that jump to mind for me GF 2 is one for me but I’m Sicilian I love all the Mafia shit, Aliens is one to consider, T2, The Dark Knight, Empire strikes back and then if you get into the Horrro Genre id really have to think about it off the rip id say Evil Dead 2, Childs play 2
You didn't like Titanic 2: The Passengers Want their Refund?
There is actually a titanic 2 from asylum films.
@@mattkenary and it was epic!!!!
@@mattkenary yah but I didn’t like it
@@greenscreenmovieguy5582 Lol, I can't comprehend why 😂
Termintor 2 is my favorite of that franchise as well. For me it's the final film in that franchise. It wraps up the story so well that the only way you can make a sequel to it is to retcon the plot (Terminator 3) or cop out and give the exact same John Conner-esque scenario to another kid (Dark Fate).
Definitely a lot to pick from but a couple that you didn't mention: Home Alone 2, ESB and ROTJ, Diary of a Wimpy Kid Rodrick Rules, High School Musical 2, Thor Ragnarok, Civil War, Deadpool 2 depending on the day anddd Die Hard With a Vengeance depending on the day
Nailin Pailin 2 brought me to tears
Would really love to see a video of yur thoughts on the whole child's play franchise including the upcoming series..
I have numerous Childs Play vids
1. Avengers: Endgame
2. The Dark Knight
3. How To Train Your Dragon 2
4. Captain America: Civil War
5. Terminator 2: Judgment Day
6. X2
7. Spider-Man 2
8. Mission: Impossible Fallout
9. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
10. Mad Max: Fury Road
Another great list I agree with child's play 2 i would pick number 3 for pure nostalgia cause like yourself it was my first horror movie. I'm surprised you didn't mention scream 2 over the original.
Of my 10 movies, these are ranked in order from Best to Worst in my opinion, while all of them being definitely better than their original counterpart in my opinion. Definitely controversial
1.Avengers: Infinity War
2.The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
3.The Dark Knight
4.Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2
5.22 Jump Street
6.Halloween H20: 20 Years Later
7.Saw II
8.The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
9.Curse of Chucky
10.Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives
Let’s go been watching your ranking videos a lot
I love the Teen Wolf shirt man. I know it isn't officially connected to that movie but that's where I recognize it from lol
Great video. I completely agree with your picks of 5, 4, 3 and 1. It's a very unpopular opinion, but I love Star Trek Into Darkness, I just think it's a really good movie.
Cody that shirt is hilarious lol. Keep up the great content though.
Awesome top 10!!! What about Spider-Man 2? Number 11?
Your Fast 5 opinion is on point 100% agree
3:16 After reading what the original idea for a 3rd Blade film was going to be before Trinity I'm sad we didn't get it.
Awesome vid as usual cody
Terminator 2 Judgement Day, Aliens, Spider-Man 2, Toy Story 2, TDK, Winter Soldier, Lethal Weapon 2
I’m glad there’s somebody out there that actually somewhat appreciates Tokyo Drift. I know it’s got the cheesy Karate Kid/Never Back Down vibe to it, but it’s good in its own way overall. Nobody can deny the fact they’d love to learn how to drift. Shit looks fun as hell😆
I'll throw in a vote for Sherlock Holmes A Game Of Shadows. You got a better story, the fantastic Jared Harris as Dr Moriarty, excellent banter between Holmes and Watson, and the action scenes at the arms factory were very fun.
Yes another great video cody
1. Avengers Endgame
2. The Dark Knight
3. Star Wars Episode V: Empire Strikes Back
4. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
5. Toy Story 3
6. Furious 7
7. Thor Ragnarok
8. Mission Impossible: Fallout
9. The Bourne Ultimatium
10. X-Men: Days of Future Past
I think it's a common misconception that originals are better than sequels, as a rule. As Mickey said, "Bullshit generalization. Many sequels have surpassed their originals."
Agree on Bladd 2 awesome fight scenes and story, Childs Play 2 has moved to my #1 spot of Child's play movie here lately, 28 weeks later was definitely a step up for me in that series, Final Chapter is my favorite 80's Jason movie 1. the kills 2. Great Jason 3. Shot great 4. Cast was awesome 80's staple, Fast 5 is definitely a step up for me when it came to the series great mix of kick ass fights and driving also funny moments, They definitely stepped in up after 2 Abrams directed a great film and yes Ghost Protocol is my favorite as well wind storm, building climb, more Simon Pegg please I enjoy him so much, I'm more of a James Cameron fan than Scott by a bit Cameron has way more hits than misses for me, Winter Soldier definitely knocks it outta the park fights and story whoa, Dawn is such a step up with those films Love Reeves and thats why I'm pumped for him Directing The Batman, And Yes Terminator 2 will always be my favorite movie I've watched it SO many times it's crazy lol I have like 4 dvd copies on different versions, One film I would add is Batman Returns but I know you're not too much of a Batman Burton fan but man the Batman look and whole feel of the film was awesome P.s. Great video sorry for the essay lmao
The empire strikes back is a must have an any list considering films that overtake the original, not only is it one of the greatest films to ever be made, but it expands elaborates off of episode 4 which is also widely considered one of the greatest of all time

Totally agree on Winter Soldier. It can stand alone outside the MCU as just a great espionage movie. It is definitely the best comic book movie ever made.
Love your video Terminator 2: Judgment Day is my absolute favourite movie of all time
I agree cody the final chapter is the best and I love part 2 to death great video keep up the great work

Friday the 13th part 4
Halloween 2018
Shin Godzilla
Blade 2, one of the most rewatchable films ever... and also strangely my go to Xmas Film along with The Descent 2 and Silent Hill
Love the shirt!
There's surprisingly quite a bit I agree with on this one. Mostly because I've only seen half of the films you mentioned, but I personally think The Empire Strikes Back should've been in there. I recently got to see it again, in theaters no less, and I fell in love with the film all over again. Oh, and the Dark Knight. I know that's cliché to say it at this point, but most people really do show up to the theater to watch the villain instead of the hero, and Heath Ledger nailed it as the Joker.
Oh, and I wholeheartedly agree on T2 and Winter Soldier without a shadow of a doubt.
Having said that, there's only two films I slightly disagreed with you on: Child's Play 2 and Friday the 13th the Final Chapter.
I get your reasons for preferring CP2 over the original, and I actually agree with you that the second was better than the first. However, and this is just for me personally, I liked Child's Play 3 more because of the military academy setting. When I was a little kid, I always wanted to join the military, and I found Andy Barclay to be a bit relatable while he was at Kent. That, and I don't think there's a lot of horror movies that pick military camp as the backdrop.
As for the Final Chapter, my reasoning is more or less the same. Cory Feldman was awesome, I liked the guy ever since I saw Goonies. But I still like Jason Lives more, mostly because it felt like the people working on the franchise realized the series was on the level of B movie, embraced it, and made it into a horror comedy that actually worked. Every time I feel like watching a movie from the Friday the 13th franchise, Jason Lives is always the one I go back to.
But, that's all just my personal preferences. At least we agree that T2 was the shit.
Great list as usual
Yo cody what happened to da top 60 horror films of all time been waiting on it😁

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2

I definitely agree on Child's Play 2 and Aliens! Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter is my second favorite Friday after Jason Lives.
Also, Mission Impossible: Fallout and Avengers: IW and Thor Ragnorak and Home Alone 2
Fantastic list!!!!
At the start of the video im like hmm🤔 i wonder if he will say blade 2 and BOOM I get hit in the face with #10. Great video as always
I think I agreed with most. Alien, terminator and 28... I prefer originals but there isn't much between originals and part 2. Bravo sir👏🏽
Interesting list
I would have expected Empire Strikes Back and The Dark Knight to be there.
Your shirt is so great ❤️😂
1. Empire Strikes Back
2. Christmas Vacation
3. Mission Impossible Ghost Proticol
4. Frozen II
5. Blade Runner 2049
6. Back to the Future Part II
7. Hobbit the Desolation of Smaug
8. Bad Boys II
9. Jason Lives
10. Lethal Weapon 2
Honorable Mention: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
Shoutout to Temple of Doom cause that's my favorite Indy movie too, it's just so close between that and Raiders
Are these also ranked about how you personally feel about the movies? Kinda hard to believe you prefer Friday the 13th Part 4 over Childs Play 2. If its about how you think about them I would have thought you put Childs Play at #1 or #2.
I said at the beginning they are in no particular order save for the top 2
My three all time favorite sequels ever are Aliens, The Empire Strikes Back, and Terminator 2: Judgment Day. I just into watching Friday The 13th or at least the first four, Part VI Jason Lives, and New Blood. I agree about Final Chapter being a really good sequel throughout the franchise. The production, directing, and acting really sold the movie for me as arguably the best Friday The 13th movie. The only other sequel that i still consider to be good regardless aside from Child’s Play 2 is Halloween II. It was a box office hit and the fact that most of it takes place in a hospital was a very interesting choice for me personally. Never really saw Godfather 2 so i can’t say whether i love or hate it but I’ve heard it’s a really good sequel that’s just as good as it’s predecessor even though they both made history in winning Oscars for Best Picture between 1972 and 1974. I wasn’t expecting Winter Soldier to make the list but it really does demonstrate everything that a good sequel is supposed to do from beginning to end. Great list and i can’t wait for the next one.
I love xmen2 over xmen1. The beginning scene with nightclawler is just wow ... simply awesome. Lady deathstryker is hot as hell.
I’ve always thought T2, Godfather 2 and Aliens weren’t better than the first. People were just blown away that they managed to be sequels and decent-especially in the case of The Godfather, considering how it was early and a follow-up to a drama.
T2 has the fun premise of a reprogrammed terminator but the emotion isn’t there. Sarah Connor had a great arc in the first one, both emotionally and through developing strength. In the second, the closest thing we get to growth is the emotionless cyborg shedding one tear.
Secondly, the first movie is actually thrilling. They have no idea whether or not they can defeat their enemy with 80s tech. In the following movies-no matter how strong their opponent is-they always have another terminator on their side. It’s like watching two superheroes fight each other.
Aliens is probably the closest one of these movies comes to being better than the first, but Alien is the perfect sci-fi horror movie, while Aliens is a great action movie. Objectively speaking these three movies are very good follow-ups to near perfect predecessors.
I'm a bit surprised that A nightmare on elm street 3 isn't on the list since you love it so much. Maybe you changed your opinion or something like that.

I think Child's Play (1998) and Child's Play 2 are tonally different films. Even though it's rated R, the original feels like more of a film for general audiences. A suspense thriller, a horror tale, with not much gore and great acting. Child's Play 2 is more of an actual slasher film where Chucky is the focus. Tom Holland even said the original is not about a killer doll, but the story of a mother trying to save her son FROM him. The original Child's Play (1988) is my favorite of the franchise, but Child's Play 2 comes in second!
Great list. I would include Batman Returns
I got lucky ang got to watch alien 1-4 as a kid, which left me with a wide appreciation for the franchise
I enjoy the first Friday the 13th more than the others. My reason is because it is Psycho in reverse. I may be seeing to much into it but the music is even similar to Psycho. Instead of a boy hearing the voice of his dead mother it is a mother hearing the voice of her dead son. The only difference was that Jason was not killed by his Mother where as Norma was killed by Norman.
Evil Dead 2 is a favorite of mine I can watch that sequel all the time
Mines too
Dam bruh u getting BIG
