23. The Road Warrior
22. Before Sunset
21. Return of the Jedi
20. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
19. After the Thin Man

10. Bride of Frankenstein

6. Terminator 2: Judgment Day
5. Spider-Man 2
4. Aliens
3. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
2. The Empire Strikes Back
1. The Godfather Part II
Another fair list. The inclusion of Godfather Part II makes me realize they left Godfather III off the "worst sequels" list, which is a pretty classy move, considering what an easy target it is. And speaking of classy, Before Sunset? After the Thin Man? Quite a bit more sophisticated than I'd expected of Moviefone.
Christmas Vacation is a good choice I wouldn't have thought of. Minor quibbles: Is Kill Bill Vol. 2 really a sequel, or a just a separately-released continuation? Is Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade better than Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? Have I just watched Temple of Doom too many times?
Spider-Man 2 doesn't do much for me, nor does Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. Overall, thanks to Moviefone, for putting together a fairly decent list, and writing a couple posts for me.
