Not that Independence Day was another Citizen Kane or anything, but by Christ, the sequel was atrocious!

Independence Day is a great movie. I mean it never aimed for high cinema but it was a brilliant somewhat cheesy entertainment.
You're right about the sequel, horrendous.

Hall of Famer
Having watched Zombieland: Double Tap last night I would have to say that it deserves a nomination.
I also started to watch Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul the other day but had to turn it off it was so incredibly lame and the acting was terrible whereas the first few were well done with good acting and many genuine lols.

Donnie Darko 2 was a stinking pile of shit. First movie was lightning in a bottle that they can't capture again.
Two obvious ones... To me anyway.
Caddyshack - Caddyshack II.
The Blues Brothers - Blues Brothers 2000
And another horror nomination
The Descent - The Descent 2
All the sequels were BAAAAAAAAAD. Like piss-poor bad.

I watch a lot of horror and I will say Descent 2 is not that bad for the genre. I give the first movie a 10 the first time I saw it and then about an 8 on repeat viewings.
The sequel in relation to the original I give a 7.
It carried on perfectly and was only inhibited by the fact we already knew what was down there, though the reveal at the very end was quite unexpected, Texas Chainsaw Massacre like turn.
Hardly a nomination in this thread imo.
Yeah, fair enough. I guess I liked the U.K ending where
Sarah remains trapped in the cave surrounded by monsters and only the memories of her dead child to keep her company and Juno was definitely well-and-truly f*cked
rather than the U.S one. I saw it in the cinema with the U.K ending and so the second one just didn't sit right. I might watch the second one again, maybe I've been too hasty.
Is there a horror franchise that has a better entry than it's first installment? Evil Dead?
I just think of the entire horror genre when I read the thread title.
Halloween 2 > 3 might be one of the worst.
The Ring, SAW, Hellraiser, Elm Street. Scream...
Jeepers Creepers..

Insidious 2, from memory, was very good. Better than the first in my opinion.
Halloween 3 is a GREAT bit of 1980's cheese. It's just not a Michael Myers Halloween movie. Friday the 13th Part 2 was every bit as good as the first - maybe even a tad better. Hellbound: Hellraiser II had most of the bones to become a superior film to the first, it was definitely more expansive in scale than the first. Somehow, maybe because it degenerated into a bitch fight bewtween the Doc and Pinhead it somehow lost its way in my eyes.
I actually liked Elm Street 3 more than the original. Still do.

Yeah, Elm Street 3 I would have above the original.

It’s going to pain me to say this because the original is one of my all time favourites but Fletch Lives is completely inferior to Fletch

Loved the first one. How hard would it have been to make a sequel that kept some of the awesomeness?
The Hangover was very good, the sequel ok, the 3rd movie was an abomination.
A victim of Hollywood/TV's overcompensation recently of ensuring the Wokeness is turned to 10 first and any time left over for a plot is just a bonus.

Terminator and Alien are not really comparable against Terminator 2 and Aliens. In both cases the first are gritty, psychological horror / sci-fi movies. The sequels are shameless big budget action movies. I like all four, but would clearly rate T1 over T2. Alien and Aliens (the extended edition) I find much harder to split. Aliens is just so damn quotable.

If I remember, it has good moments, but overall a shit story that just lumbers from setup to setup?

I've never seen them but I imagine the Bloodsport sequels without Jean Claude Van Damme are pretty poor.
On the flipside, the Kickboxer sequel without Van Damme is actually alright.
