Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
The Raid 2 (in this case better)
John Wick: Chapter Two
Blade Runner 2049 (mentioning it again because it’s so f’n great)
Robocop 2 - idk why, I just find it to be the best of them all
28 Weeks Later - very surprised a sequel at all worked. But it did.
Return To Oz - cannot deny that it is one hell of a trip, ey?
The French Connection II - evne better and oh boy Gene is good in it.
James Bond - From Russia with Love, one of the best in the whole series
For a Few Dollars More - all three are great.
The Rescuers Down Under - underrated pearl
Young Guns II - great story, great characters
The Expendables 2 - Van Damme, nuf said
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - generally hated, I think. But I freaking luv it.
An American Tail: Fievel Goes West - not a tearjerker like the one before, but holds through and through
I haven’t seen Superman 2 (or one) Captain America 2 (or one) or X2 (lol, or one), but otherwise this is a great list. Don’t know if I can get on board with Lethal Weapon 2, though.
