[QUOTE="Snarf Zagyg, post: 9184331, member: 7023840"] No. If you were to say that Airplane II was a great followup, I would completely agree. But the original Airplane was the better (and funnier) film. As much as I love William Shatner. I assume that the intended topic was, "Sequels that weren't complete rubbish, and/or were arguably better than the originals." So I will list all the ones I can think of, including one that have already been listed: [I]Godfather, Part II[/I]. Better? No. But really good. The two combined are arguably the best one-two punch in moviedom. There was no third movie. [I]Empire Strikes Back. Wrath of Khan. The Dark Knight. [/I]Indubitably. [I]Mad Max [/I]series. The first one was fine, but the series got better. I would even say that [I]Fury Road[/I] is one of the finest action movies ever. [I]Winter Soldier[/I]. The first Cap Movie was good. This was one of the best MCU ever. [I]Thor: Ragnarok[/I]. By taking Thor in a completely different direction, made the character so much more compelling. [I]Christmas Vacation. [/I]A controversial choice. The first movie is the better [I]movie[/I], but the second movie is a holiday classic. [I]Pink Panther [/I]series. Most people forget that the original PP movie didn't really coalesce into what we think of in terms of the series until the second one ([I]A Shot in the Dark[/I]). [I]Goldfinger[/I]. Dr. No might be iconic, but [I]Goldfinger[/I] was better. Yeah, it was the third movie. But it was the one that truly established Bond. [I]Evil Dead [/I]series. Evil Dead 2 and AoD are just stone-cold classics, surpassing the original. Not included- [I]T2[/I]. Great movie. The original was better. [I]Bladerunner 2049[/I]. Loved this movie so much. But the original was a stone-cold classic, establishing many of the tropes of the dystopian science fiction on the screen that we know today. [I]Top Gun Maverick. [/I]The original had a better volleyball scene. [/QUOTE]
