Can anyone name a sequel to a comedy that was as good or better than the original? Pure comedy only qualifies and not comedy-action movies or comedies mixing other genres like Scifi or drama. Richard Pryor Live on the Sunset Strip |

...The second one especially, as it introduces the dumb concept that Laurie Strode is Michael Myers' long lost sister. Changes the dynamic of the first one, where she was just a random victim. That's what made it so creepy. And I'm sorry, you can't "un-know" that and watch it fresh ever again. Sequels CAN ruin the movies that come before them.

Re: Sequels you wish never existed?
I don't think comedy sequels need to be as good as the original to qualify their existence, they just need to be entertaining in their own right.
That said, most of them do fail that test. I agree with Ted 2 being funnier than the first. I also liked Waynes World 2, Rush Hour 2, The Naked Gun 2 1/2, Hot Shots Part Deux, Addams Family Values and A Very Brady Sequel. |

The Pink Panther series has some good sequels. My personal favorite is Return of the Pink Panther (#4).

Re: Sequels you wish never existed?
Waynes World 2 was good though most of the public would disagree. Christmas Vacation might be one of the rare good comedy sequels.
Independence Day Resurgence The first movie was ok but not really worthy of a sequel. Bill Pullman looking like the dos equis dude in the beginning could not save that movie. |
