Just wondering, most movies that have sequels are usually fail or just not as great as the original

How many movies fit this catergories to you guys?

Iron man 2, Fast and furious 5 and so many others, they are good movies but just not as great as the original

i think to me the only one that was good is probably the lord of the rings trilogy

[fxckyouguys]

Lion king 2

[Pilot]

Return of the King?

[Boggart]

Wait, so your title is saying best sequal, but the OP says "sequels are usually fail or just not as great as the original. How many movies fit this catergories to you guys?"

So which are you actually asking?

[Drakonid]

Star Wars V and VI

[Ladida]

The Dark Knight. Hands down.

LOTR TTT and ROTK technically weren't sequels, LOTR was one epic story broken up into three movies.

[CraigChrist]

Boondock Saints 2

[Ladida]

Actually, the real sequels I've seen (Movie Name 2) have all sucked. I loved Ironman, I can see that sequel not disappointing me

[korochu20]

Umm, toy story 2 anyone?or maybe spiderman 2

Boondock Saints 2

Fuck that shit. The first one was so much better.

[AyoForYayo]

Lion king 2

you stolez my idears.

[simplicity155]

the answers all seem to be movies that werent made within the last 5 years with a few exceptions

it just kinda seems like a lot of the ideas have been done before or so and its very hard to make sequels kinda why i cringe every time something releases a movie and hope for the best that they are good

The Ring two was BETTER than the first "The Ring" imho
After seeing the first "Pet Cemetary" I was VEERRY disapointed with the second one... (there was another even better example, but i can't remember the name lol)

Also does anyone else love Scary Movie 2 more than the other Scary Movie movies?

[GeorgeBright]

Empire Strikes Back comes to mind.

[Connery]

Rocky IV.

[RWS]

Of all the sequels I've seen, only LOTR was as great as the original. Every other sequel seems to fail really hard. None failed harder than the sequels to the Matrix, imo...
