The Empire Strikes Back.

**Karpo_007** · 11-24-2003, 07:16 AM

T2: Judgment Day
SW Episode V: Empire Strikes Back
Aliens

3 sequels that I consider being atleast as good as the original.

Definately.

Two Towers was great as well.
TMNT 2 was kind of almost just as good but not quite but it definately was a good sequel. But TMNT 3 just ruined everything.

[Edit: Ill add Toy Story 2 and X2]

*raphael_is_cool* · 11-24-2003, 07:35 AM

Gremlins 2

..can't think of anymore right now

**Barkworm** · 11-24-2003, 07:38 AM

-The Empire strikes back
-The Two Towers (not as good as the first one though)
-Batman Returns

*Taloniss* · 11-24-2003, 08:33 AM

Terminator 2, Aliens, and X-Men 2

I wouldn't consider Two Towers to be a sequel. It's part of a set trilogy. When Fellowship of the Ring was created, Two Towers was already created as well. They are all three meant to go together. It's basically just one long movie broken up. Empire Strikes Back may be the same thing since it was all one idea George Lucas already had.

I think a sequel is just when they make one movie and then later decide to make another one based on how well the first one did. Terminator 2 and Aliens follow that, I think, because the first movies had closure and the creators never expected the story to be continued in the beginning.

That's just me though.

BTW -- 100th post!!! Woo-hoo!!!

[sarcasm]Oh yeah, people just KNEW there wasn't going to be an Alien sequel since the ending scene involved Ripley going into hypersleep destined to encounter unknown phenomena in the galaxy and wake up 57 years later and not age a single day...

Anyway:

Terminator 2
Aliens
Empire Strikes Back AND Return of the Jedi (you heard me right)
Star Trek IV
Star Trek: First Contact
Robocop 2
Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (anyone who argues with me is asking for a flamewar)

*Mars-Chan* · 11-24-2003, 10:28 AM

X2! DUH!

, Terminator 2, Empire Strikes Back *Mimmics R2-D2 perfectly*, Return of the Jedi, (gee....am I a Star Wars freak?

) and....I can't think of any others right now.

Way to go, Relay! Keep it up!

*Bowser_Koopa* · 11-24-2003, 10:56 AM

Batman Returns (screw you!!! i liked it!!!)

*The Defibrillator* · 11-24-2003, 11:03 AM

Besides LotR and Star Wars, Toy Story 2 and X-men 2.

Meira-Bates · 11-24-2003, 12:43 PM

Terminator 2
Two Towers
Yu Yu Hakusho; Spirit Report(heck...all things considered it was way BETTER than the first 'movie')
Armitage Third: (can't remember the rest of the name of the movie's sequal....While the second Armitage movie isn't entirely as good as the first I think it deserves credit anyway. They did very good with it considering it was a movie about a 'settled down' version of Armitage. You know, married, with kid, living normal, boring life and then all the sudden she has to get back into action, ect.)

I WOULD have liked Mortal Kombat 2, but even with not liking Jhonny Cage, killing him like that was nuts...and my favorite character outside of Raiden is Jade....so YEAH...I was QUITE dissapointed there.

*raphael_is_cool* · 11-24-2003, 02:00 PM

No Rez, Aliens wasn't an already planned sequel, and the ending was meant to have Ripley return home...the 2 films have different writers too

I quite liked predator 2 over the 1st and also the later lethal weapons are good

*That Matt Guy* · 11-24-2003, 02:22 PM

Problem Child 3.

InsaneZane · 11-24-2003, 07:13 PM

dontebell,
i'm sorry.. must disagree..
the first Mortal Kombat was OK... but
MK: Annihilation was one of the biggest disgraces in movie history...
I'm almost 18, now, and I could have done a better job on the scipt when the movie was new, and I was younger back then, and trust me, i was young, but still absolutly brilliant... and I knew everything the was to know about Mortal Kombat.

I was very disappointed w/ MK2 and I'm about as big as the MK fans come.

If anyone wishes to test my knowledge of MK... feel free...please.

----I have to say Empire Strikes Back and X2: X-Men United(except N'Sync)

I'll list more as I think of them.

Dontebell · 11-24-2003, 07:24 PM

there nothing wrong with mortal kombat:annihilation i think it was great.
