    A new year means new tournaments. Welcome to Boardsies greatest movie sequel.

    Rarely are movie sequels better than the original, but there many great sequels. Let's find which is the greatest as decided by Boardsies.

    Please PM me 10 movies

    Please only pick movies which are sequels rather than remakes or reboots. Does not need to be a direct sequel to the original, can be any part in the movie series.
    Movie series like James Bond I will not include as they are not really sequels. I will judge each entry separately.

    ...To be continued

    Great idea for a tournament! I’ll get mine in now. It will be interesting to see which movie Terminator 2 beats in the final.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,661 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Only one pops into my head straight away because I love the movie. When have they to be in by?

    Was it Sharknado that an Irish 'celeb' was in one of them? One of the boyzone boys I think??

    I hope to get a min 128 movies so I'd say loads of time to think about nominations.

    I have also another contest to get around to running so no rush.

    3 people have sent noms so far with a few duplicates.

    Jedward were very briefly in one of them.

    Sounds like declaring the Lion King 2 to be the winner will suit everyone.

    Well I've never even seen the first one, so I couldn't say how good or bad either are. But I'll settle for The Empire Strikes Back as an acceptable compromise.

    I was sure it was Sharknado that I seen a clip of someone, I thought it might have been Keith Duffy maybe (couldnt think of his name earlier) getting eaten:D

    It might have not been real though. They wouldn't be the type of movie I could have on even in the background lol

    I was in my late 20s when it was released so it was never part of my childhood, I don't have kids and, most importantly, I hate Disney films.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,661 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    :D:D ah maybe it was that so.

    Soiler alert, he gets eaten! :D

    Never seen the Lion King. Got Disney+ for the kids last month. They don't like it, and I'm not impressed with the lineup. That reminds me, any Marvel movies that get nominated will hopefully be knocked out in the first round

    I like the Marvel movies, they're perfect popcorn for the brain, but I wouldn't actually nominate any of them for this. Going to sign up to Disney+ for a month myself so I can binge on The Mandalorian. Probably won't watch anything else.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Will send in some noms later, i'll have to have a good think about what to nominate

    Same.

    I've no space for them in my nominations anyway, especially since there were so many Leprechaun sequels... :pac:

    Slight tangent, but in case you didn't see, Disney are adding "Star" to Disney+ with grown up content. Was mostly old stuff I think, 24, Lost etc but maybe worth a quick Google.

    Big fan of the series, rewatched them all last month. Part 2 and Tokyo Drift are the worst offenders, the other 6 are awesome.

    Noms in...

    Only two sequels have ever won Best Picture...

    My point still stands, the Oscars suck.

    Boardsies Decide is the only award that matters.

    Ah yeah, I was backing you up :p
    I know Francis Ford Coppola would throw the Oscar in the bin if Godfather 2 wins this!

    Godfather Part II ain't winning sh*t here, not with excellent and epic classics such as Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo in the mix. :D

    My money's on Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol. It was clearly a superb film, otherwise they wouldn't have made another three after it.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Finding Dory is clearly the best


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Return of the Killer Tomatoes has to win this, an all time classic


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,421 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    11 sets of entries in with over 60 unique movies.

    I will declare, most of the obvious are represented and will be seeded, if you want to think outside the box with nominations.

    Fear not, I've added class, sophistication and knowledge to proceedings.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,421 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Given its success in other tournaments, Back to the Future 2 has this sown up, doesnt it ? :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,421 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    75 unique entries in so far and I will add my own. Still taking nominations. All movie entries so far have been validated and accepted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,421 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    I hope to start this next week, probably Monday. Still space for some more, if anyone would like to submit another 5 noms, you can.

    In any case, we will have enough to get started.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,421 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Nominations completed, live thread up, hoping to start tomorrow around 10am

    Unfortunately we have already started the voting. Please PM me them and I will try something with them. Maybe some 3-way matches if everyone is fine with that.
