Mad Max 2: Road Warrior IS the best sequel ever made.

It got listed first since the EW.com article had a countdown of them.

TLeeTx2012 · 06-10-2011, 07:36 PM

Out of this list my faves are:

MAD MAX 2: The Road Warrior
STAR TREK II: The Wrath of Khan
EVIL DEAD II: Dead by Dawn
THE DARK KNIGHT
INFERNAL AFFAIRS II
EVIL DEAD III: Army of Darkness
The Return of the Living Dead Part 2
TRON: Legacy
The Empire Strikes Back

FrellingFrakker · 06-16-2011, 02:25 PM

The ones I consider truly great from this list are:
X2
Wrath of Khan
Two Towers
Return of the King
Spiderman 2
GoldenEye (one of the best all time bond flicks, when the heck is this coming to Blu?)
Casino Royale
Godfather II
The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
Empire Strikes Back

Also, where is Toy Story 3? I thought that was the greatest of the trilogy although I love them all.

It's Top 50, not Top 100.

Dragon Lee · 06-16-2011, 10:30 PM

Godfather II
The Empire Strikes Back
LOTR: The Return of the King
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Aliens

Did you watch it subtitled or dubbed or not at all? You're missing this smiley

I believe. So sorry I enjoy films in other languages besides English.

EDIT: Nice coming from someone who owns all the idiotic Saw movies.

jvince · 06-17-2011, 09:40 AM

The Empire Strikes Back, Spider-Man 2, The Dark Knight, and Toy Story 2 for me.

arcadeforest · 10-01-2011, 08:04 PM

I picked Empire but Aliens was a very close second.

Konfusion1230 · 10-02-2011, 03:34 AM

Empire Strikes Back. A lot of good sequels listed.

I'm one of the few that thinks Alien, although being a great sequel, pales in comparison to Alien. And I'll probably get flamed for this but, I prefer Alien 3 to Aliens. I like the slow burn, claustrophobia and darkness of it.
