Sequels That Are Higher Rated than the Original

... on IMDb, that is.
Not only direct sequels and second parts / not only narrative film series are included.
The common name for a whole franchise may work for the first part - in some, but not all cases.
If the sequel is widely known by an additional name, you will have to enter it.

I know, but it's part sequel, remake/reboot and something entirely new, so I found it more convenient to go with Road Warrior.

Last comment.. if I had ever gotten around to making this I probably would have gone with Rotten Tomatoes over IMDB.. then I could have included Alien and Aliens.

When it comes to determining which film is better, I trust imdb more. Some movies like the Toy Storys just have incredibly high ratings, and I just looked up the Lord of the Rings trilogy - according to rottentomatoes, The Two Towers is the best of these, with 96%.
