I've never considered that a sequel since those films were always made clearly as 3 parts to a whole. Each movie isn't really its own story to where a new foundation needs to be built for the sequel, they're basically one big movie.

What a great selection, Hotshots 2 would have been my 1st pick, when Charlie Sheen crashes the jet on the carrier as it gradually falling to pieces always cracks me up, " engine just died " , controler "doing great ", " there goes a wing ", controller, " doing fine ", " lost a wing ", controller, "everything looks good ", " there goes the other one ", controller " your ok ", " there goes the other one " , controller " looking good ", pile of scrap metal crashes onto deck with Charlie sitting in the middle of it. Cracks me up everytime.

In each case, the 1st is a SF-horror tale, whereas the second is a militaristic action yarn, especially Aliens (The storyline is effectively concluded as well in their respective "direct sequel" - though T:TSC (2 seasons on Fox, the broadcast entity) does offer an intriguing continuation).

2 of my favorite all time 2nd installments: Clerks 2- Kevin Smith stepped up his game twelve years after the original chapter of his View Askewniverse. Now Dante and Randall work at a burger joint and Jay and Silent Bob are right outside. Similar to the first in some ways, he pumped up the stakes with the potential for Dante leaving Jersey for Florida with his fiancé when he finds out he's having a baby with another, a coworker. Jay And Silent Bob Reboot- It's a sequel, it's a reboot, it's all these and more. Kevin Smith (again) takes a concept (do the exact same film again) and builds upon it to make an almost completely different film. He grows the titular Jay in ways that he never did in the original,Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back. Plus, it may be the best film of Smith's directing AMD writing career. Who knew that a heart attack (Kevin had one in 2018) could bring out the absolute best into an artist. Terminator vs T2? I say apples and oranges. The first is a romantic love story at its heart. The sequel is the action fueled runaway train.
