15 Movie Sequels That Were Way Better Than The Original

Everyone knows that “Star Wars: Episode IV - The Empire Strikes Back” is the greatest sequel ever made. It proved two things: that you could not only make a quality sequel to a science fiction film but 2 ) you could improve on “Star Wars.” Since then, countless franchises have been launched to varying degrees of critical and commercial success.

The secret to a successful franchise is no big secret but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to pull off: you just need to do the same thing as before but different. But not too different or you’ll alienate your audience. And it’s no secret why sequels - along with remakes, reboots, and the like - are so popular now more than ever: they bring home the cheddar. Sequels are a boon to the big Hollywood studios so you better believe they’re going to bank on franchises to keep their ledgers in the black.

Sometimes, albeit seldom, a sequel manages to improve on the original in ways once thought unthinkable - while most times they’re subject to the law of diminishing returns. Well, today we’re going to take a look at the exceptions to the rule: the “Empire” of some of your favorite film franchises, including Star Trek, Mission Impossible, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which boasts some of the best follow ups in recent memory. We’re talking about films that in some cases completely redefined their respective film franchises and/or improved on the original concepts in surprising ways, all while making serious bank at the box office!
