Sequels that exceed the original

RE: Sequels that exceed the original

Also, most of the Harry Potter movies. The first was charming, the second was repitious. Im not a fan of the third but most are. The 4th has rightfully mised reviews. But 5, 6 and 8 are all excellent, surpasding the first movie by leaps and bounds.

Remember that the books were aimed at succeeding ages of children. The original intent was to read Book One at eleven and Book Seven at 18. So the intensity of the books escalates, making for better material for the script writers.

To see it done with modern computers and modern setting (I mean is that the only 80's techno/ SF movie that is not planned to be re-made or sequeled?). But let's face it problem is they wouldn't be able to just make a movie like that today, it has to be only the first one in upcoming 20 sequels.
