I disagree with this
Spider-Man 2 over Spider-Man (kinda not completly, i was somewhat disappointed by SM2)
Resident Evil: Apocalypse over Resident Evil
Attack of the Clones over The Phantom Menace

here:
ROTK over FOTR
Star Trek II over (way over) Star Trek Motion Picture
First Contact over Generations
Toy Story 2 over Toy Story
Last Crusade over Temple of Doom
Rush Hour 2 over Rush Hour

Thats because both of those are wrong....in my opnion.

Agree with that ones.

I actually disagreed with the first one...read the post

Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade over both previous Indiana Jones films
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back over Star Wars: A New Hope
Return of the King over both previous Lord of the Rings movies
Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban over both previous Harry Potter movies
Toy Story 2 over Toy Story
X2: X-Men United over X-Men
Star Wars Ep II: Attack of the Clones over the Phantom Menace
The Santa Clause 2 over The Santa Clause
Batman Forever over Batman Returns
The Rescuers Down Under over The Rescuers

Scream 2 was substantially less amusing than Scream, but still quite good. LoTR: TTT and RoTK both were overrated, and less enjoyable then FoTR. And Bad Boys II? One of the worst action sequels ever.

STAR WARS EPISODE V - THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK over star wars episode iv - a new hope
STAR WARS EPISODE II - THE ATTACK OF THE CLONES over star wars episode 1 - the phantom menace
SPIDERMAN II over spiderman
BATMAN RETURNS over batman
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS over the lord of the rings: the fellowship of the ring
HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS over harry potter and the sorcerer's stone
X2: X-MEN UNITED over x-men
TERMINATOR 2: JUDGEMENT DAY over the terminator
ALIENS over alien
SUPERMAN II over superman
RESIDENT EVIL: APOCALYPSE over resident evil

and many more

maybe i can add

Lethal Weapon 4 and Lethal Weapon 3 over previous both Lethal Weapon. still a great great great fanchise. i love it.

hard to pick which is better:
Toy Story
Shrek

Batman Returns was better than Batman
Scream 2 was better than Scream
Halloween H20 was better than Halloween


Remakes?
The ring
Texas Chainsaw
The Grudge

Were better than the originals.

I've never seen any sequel better than the original. And I've never understood the praise of Godfather 2, it had none of the drama and arc of the first one.

*Prays that mansonmyers is joking*

Too many!

Return Of The Jedi ove A New Hope
Empiire Strikes back over A New Hope
Spiderman 2 over Spiderman
Shrek 2 over Sherk
Aliens over Alien
Die Hard: With A Vengence over Die Hard

Oooh yeah, SHREK 2 was better than SHREK.
