10 Best Comedy Movie Sequels, Ranked

Sequels, including comedy movie sequels, often have a bad reputation in the world of cinema, more often not ending up just attempts to milk a concept for money while failing to capture what made their predecessor unique enough to demand more. Comedy, especially, is like lightning-in-a-bottle and most comedy sequels can’t match the high expectations, becoming forced, formulaic, and stale. A good comedy hits at the sense of humor of the modern zeitgeist, so it’s hard for a sequel to find a way to match the original tone, especially when the tone is humorous while striking at the moment.
