Pat and I were having a discussion on the way back from lunch today, trying to come up with movie sequels that were as good or better than the original. Here's what we've got so far: * "Empire Strikes Back":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0080684/ * "Godfather II":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0071562/ * "LOTR: Two Towers":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0167261/ * "Terminator 2":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0103064/ * "Star Trek II":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0084726/ ("Khaaaaaaan!")

What else?

*Update:* Thought of a couple more:

* "Toy Story 2":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0120363/ * "Aliens":http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0090605/ I feel a little weird about this one, as it's very similar to T2, in that the first movie was a sci-fi movie, and the sequel was either an action movie (T2), or action/horror (Aliens).
