Hello I'm NOT the Nostalgia Critic, I remembered it because no one else cares. As many of you know I'm one of the few people who actually likes sequels. However I know a lot don't but I decided to makes a list of what I think are the best animated sequels. Of course I'll be comparing them to the movies that came before them whether they're not as hood, just as good, or even better than their preceder. Now keep in mind this is just my opinion but please comment but don't be rude. Enjoy!

10.The Rescuers Down Under

In my opinion this is one of the most underrated Disney masterpieces. First of all the animation is absolutely gorgeous, surprising considering how bad that animation in the original is. I love all of the new characters, though I'm not too crazy about Jake. While I love Penny from the Original I have to say Cody by far surpasses her. I love how strong willed he is and how he really enjoys making McLeach mad because he knows he can't kill him because he's the only one who can help him. Also while Medusa is a pretty cool villain she's nothing special while McLeach is actually a much more cruel and sinister villain. I absolutely love the action of this movie, everything makes my jaw drop. The climax really puts me on the edge of my seat because I'm really concerned and really want someone to save that poor little boy. One flaw it has is that we hardly see any of our two main characters but to me that's kind of a good thing. It's not that they're bad and not likable but they're not as interesting as Cody. I wasn't even all that interested in them in the original and they actually have more personality in the sequel than they do in the original. The Rescuers is suppose to be like an adventure and the original was kind of lacking that while the sequel is jack packed with it. The plot is much more epic than the original. So as you can already guess while I do like The Rescuers I think the sequel BY FAR surpasses it. I honestly don't see why people like the original more. Why it's the bland forgettable one people love more I'll never understand. For me it's not higher is because the others are just more interesting.

9.The Land Before Time 4: Journey Through The Mists

First of all I have to say I love The Land Before Time movies, although they stopped being good after the sixth movie. However out of all the sequels I think this one is by far the best and really captures some of the aspects of the original. I love how is ed-knowledge's that the world outside of The Great Valley is suffering and constantly changing. I also like how there's racism in this movie just like the original, it makes it more realistic. However what makes this different is that unlike the original the racism is more of just being shy and a misunderstanding rather that arrogance, stupidity, and bad raising. I love how the characters keep their original personalities, except Cera but she changes for the better. She's still annoying at times and I don't like her like I do in the third movie but she's alright. Ali is also a decently likable character, annoying in some ways but charming in others. I actually like all of the songs in this movie, which is something you don't get in The Land Before Time sequels because they're usually not very good. The villains are also pretty good and entertaining. However it's no where near as good as the original because the original Land Before Time is a complete classic. The original is better animation, score, story, and emotion. However it's better than the sequels that came before it, although they're really good. The reason it's not higher is that the others are more dynamic.

8.Toy Story 2

I absolutely love the Toy Story franchise first of all and secondly I'm so glad they made a sequel. Originally this was going to be a direct-to-video sequel but the more they worked on it the more they wanted to make it a theatrical release and I'm glad they did. First of all I love the new characters, especially Jessie. She's the most dynamic and complex character in the franchise. She has such a tragic back story which makes up with how she was rude and slightly bratty for part of the movie. However she's not just rude and a dull stick in the mud, she's a fun and active character. I love the emotion in this movie about how Woody will one day have to face the inevitable that Andy will one day have to grow up and leave him behind. Eventually we all have to face the inevitable whatever it is so this is a pretty realistic movie. Is also features one of the saddest animated moments in existence, When She Loved Me. This scene made me actually cry for a piece of plastic and actually feel bad for giving away my toys. I actually have to say, while I absolutely LOVE Toy Story and it's one of my favorite Disney movies, I think this movie actually is much better. It's much more dynamic, has a strong female lead that girls can identify with, and much more emotion than the original. It's not higher because I find the others a bit more interesting.

7.Aladdin and The King of Thieves

I have to say I think this is most a perfect ending to both the TV series and the Aladdin franchise. I just love how the Aladdin movies have great continuity and how the sequels actually continues the story. I love how much of an adventure this movie is, it's really epic and I think deserved a theatrical release. It actually really could have if it had better animation and was longer like day half an hour or forty-five minutes. I love that we actually get to learn about Aladdin's father and even more so that we get to see Aladdin and Jasmine finally getting married. I love how they developed Aladdin and Jasmine as characters. Jasmine isn't rude or bratty and is more mature and becomes what she wanted in the original. Aladdin finally stops lying and he really matures. I love how the other characters from the original stay the same. The villain is really good too. I also love all the songs, except Welcome To The Forty Thieves. Don't let the bad animation fool you, this is one high quality sequel. So yeah you must think that I actually love this movie than the original and I think I should but I don't. It's much better than Return of Jafar, although it's also really good, however this movie has better quality. However the original is a classic and the sequel does have things that bug me. I hate Aladdin's father, Jasmine's role is pretty minor, I didn't like the forty thieves, I didn't like the song Welcome To The Forty Thieves, Jafar is a much better villain, and I hate that they had Iago leave the group. I think the group needs to stay together, that's how it should be. It's not higher for those reasons and because I think they really should have given some of the forty thieves and the villain more of a back story and how they ended up where they are.

6.Return To Neverland

One of the few Disney sequels from Disney Home Entertainment to actually make a theatrical release and in my opinion it completely deserved it. I love how realistic this movie is by showing an actual war going on during the movie while in the original it was just nothing. Unlike most I absolutely LOVE Jane and doesn't deserve the criticism she gets. I mean come on people she's growing up during World War II for goodness sake. Do you know what it's called World War? Because it means no war like it. Besides she makes mistakes but makes up for them and actually saves the day. Even before she's pretty witty, sassy, smart, kind, responsible, mature, strong, is gorgeous, and unlike her mother actually has a backbone to stand up to Peter. Peter Pan is actually a pretty good character in this movie, in the original he's insufferable but here he's a charming character, with some annoying moments. Also unlike being hideous beyond belief like in the original he's quite handsome, mostly because of the WAY better animation. The animation is absolutely gorgeous, I love the songs(except for the lost boys song), the score, the character, and the villain. Hook is actually more sinister and evil in this movie. I love the emotion in this movie, it's so sad and even makes me misty eyed. Tinkerbell's death/I'll Try reprise actually makes me cry. In my opinion this movie is FAR better than the original. I actually absolutely hate the original and I think this movie is a masterpiece. It has far better animation, songs, characters, and development. Plus the couple Jane and Peter is more developed than Wendy and Peter Pan. I suppose Wendy and Peter Pan are charming is you like abusive and spineless relationships but if you don't, like I don't, than they're awful. Peter actually like Jane and actually has a crush on her. People say Jane and Peter aren't a couple and I think they only say that because they're more developed than their precious Wendy and Peter. Jane and Peter are more of a couple than Wendy and Peter, a fact not an opinion. Anyway it's not higher because it's a little too simple compared to the others. Plus I didn't really like the octopus, they should have kept the crocodile but I guess maybe there was some kind of reason for it. But overall the octopus isn't bad.

5.The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride

Come on we all knew this was going to be on this list, there's hardly anyone who doesn't love this movie. I love how this movie really continues the story and has great new characters. I absolutely love all the songs, even Upendi. The animation, while not as good as the original, is pretty good especially considering the quality of some Disney sequels and their animation. I absolutely love Kiara, she's even better than Timon and Pumba, my favorite characters from the original. She's strong, smart, fun, adventurous, curious, and wise. I love her speech to Simba about the outsiders. Kovu is really great too, not as good as Simba but still really awesome and complex. The villain actually surpasses Scar, she doesn't turn whiny and pathetic in the second half and is really hardcore. I love how she really loves what she does and is psychotic, she's very frightening and a great villain. Kiara and Kovu are a great couple and actually surpass most of the Disney couples. I bet your wondering if I think it's better than original and that answer is no, I think they're both equally as good. I think both of them are really great but also have their problems like the original's problem is the mixed message. The sequel's problems is for one it's not as long as it was before. I also wish we could have known more about Zira's relationship with Scar and went into a little more detail about the outsiders that were on Scar's side. Plus Simba is a little out of place here but he has his reasons, although at times it's a little over the top.

4.Shrek 2

This movie is absolutely amazing and hilarious and probably the best satire ever. The characters are pretty much the same, except Fiona isn't spoiled or bratty. The animation is absolutely amazing. I love all the songs they put in this movie, especially I Need A Hero. The villain is really cool, I love how she's not the traditional Cinderella fairy godmother and is very controlling and manipulative. Charming while kind of annoying and also pretty entertaining with how lame and pathetic he is. I love the romance between Shrek and Fiona even more here because you can tell how much they love each other with the way they sacrifice for each other. The climax is absolutely epic and the new characters are really great. I love how they actually have a hang out for all the fairy-tale villains called "The Poison Apple", that's really clever.I have to say this movie actually surpasses the original, the original is really good and is a classic but it's kind of simple by comparison. It's not higher simply because I love the others more.

3.Toy Story 3

This is a franchise that just keeps getting better and better with each movie. I actually did kind of wonder as a kid what would happen when Andy grew up and here it is. I love how in this movie Jessie isn't rude like she was in the original. I really love how the toys decided to move on. What's really great is that Woody really moved on and realized he can't hold on to the past forever, that's a huge character development for him. I know a lot of people don't like that Bo Peep isn't in the movie but I honestly don't care, I never liked her and I'm glad they finally saw that she was an unnecessary character. I love how unlike the Barbies in the second movie this one is actually really smart and a total bada**. I mean this chick is so tough that I would actually be afraid to go up against her. I love how it's darker than the first two movies and the character development on the character. The villain is actually pretty cool too. This movie is actually better than the first two movies, it just surpasses the quality and is more dynamic with better character development. It's a perfect ending to and amazing franchise and PLEASE PIXAR DON'T MAKE A TOY STORY 4! It's not higher because the other two are in my top 10 favorite movies of all time.

2.Beauty and The Beast The Enchanted Christmas

I know a lot of people think this is a bad movie but in my opinion it's one of the best movies in existence and the best Christmas movie. I love how the characters all stay the same, except Belle but I think she changed for the better, she became more flawed and realistic. People usually say she was a push over who was trying to change Beast but I disagree. She stood up for herself and others and she wasn't trying to change Beast, she just wanted to bring joy to him and everyone. I really love the songs, all of them are great, even A Cut Above The Rest. The animation is actually decently nice looking, not amazing or anything but kind of good. I love the back story on Beast and Christmas, it's really interesting. I love how emotional and touching this movie is, sometimes I even cry tears of not only sadness but of happiness. The new characters are pretty cool too and the villain, though kind of a lame motivation, is pretty good too. I know a lot of people are gonna attack me for this but I actually prefer this over the original. Don't get me wrong the original is really good but I just felt more emotion from this. The heroine actually has more of a personality and flaws, it's more touching, and the emotion is more natural and not so much fake soap opera style. Plus it makes the relationship between Belle and Beast more realistic by having time gone by. It's problems are it kind of messes with the timeline only SLIGHTLY but hey by logic Lefou and Maurice should have died just by being out in the cold in twelve hours or less. Beast is kind of a rage-aholic but that kind of helps make is more realistic. But I wish it was longer so maybe we could have learned about Belle's mother and some Christmas memories she had with her and some back story on Beast's parents and maybe it's another reason he hates Christmas and more over why he is the way he is.

1.Lady and The Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure

If you guys know me you knew this was coming, I absolutely LOVE this movie. First of all I must say the animation is absolutely gorgeous and obviously better than the animation in the original, obviously because of the improvement over time. The songs are all amazing, although I think we could have gotten a better song than Welcome Home for an opener and finale. The villain is pretty awesome, clever, and sinister. I love all the new characters especially Scamp and Angel, but more so Scamp. I relate so much with Scamp, he's so realistic an relate-able. He's basically the younger male puppy version of Ariel so that's part of why I love him. He makes mistakes but makes up for them by being charming and admits to his mistakes. Angel is also an awesome, sassy, smart, strong, and complex character. I love the beautiful message and how it teaches not only rebel kids but parents a lesson too. It teaches them to try to listen more and be understanding. It teaches rebels to be more appreciative of what they have, family is always there, and to go after your dreams but don't forget what's really important. It's not a rehash of the original and is actually it's own story. I actually think, while I actually quite like Lady and The Tramp, that the sequel is BY FAR A MILLION TIME BETTER! It has better songs, better characters, better development, an actual villain, Angel and Scamp actually have good reasons for their problems with families while Tramp is too vague and just seems like a jerk, a MUCH better and developed couple, better animation, a stable story-line and plot, and a better message. This is my favorite sequel EVER and I wish it was longer so it could be even better and have even more adventure. It deserved to be longer and to get a theatrical release.

Not too long ago I made a list of what I considered the best animated sequels and now I'm making the list of the worst. As many of you know I generally like sequels but there are admit-ably some really bad sequels. There are some that didn't make the cut but came close and I'll give them an honorable mention at the end. These are sequels I suggest you don't even waste your time with because they're so bad that most of them make me cringe. Anyway enjoy and please leave a comment.

It pains me to put anything The Little Mermaid related on a worst...

If only he were female... Wait, what? No, that'd be weird. I never said that! >:I

Now this was a bloody hard decision, but I finally got off my arse and kicked and screamed until these lot finally fell into some sort of order.
Just because a heroine isn't on this list doesn't mean I don't love her. I mean, heck, I am restricting myself to 10! This list will be incredibly biased, bitchy and piss-taking. But you guys enjoy that, so don't be hypocritical and moan...
Jesus fucking Christ, this advert is pissing me off. GO AWAY. NO, I WON'T PLAY POKER WITH YOU. STOP BECKONING SUGGESTIVELY. It's more the way the animation keeps jolting back to the beginning like some shitty animatronic...

The next part of this amazing series where we discover the world of my interests and favorite characters.

So, last time we talked about the ladies, now it's time to talk about the gentlemen. I'll admit that this was a harder list to make, because I do have a mental list for the ladies, with the men it's very uneven and unsorted. So I had to think a lot to get this list going, but I think in the end I managed to get something that works.

Well, let's get started.

He's such a cutie! He barely makes the list but I could talk a lot about him. I love that he's the...

Jane Porter - Tarzan - 1999

In the late 1880s off the coast of Africa, a young couple and their infant son escape a burning ship and land on the unexplored rainforests of Africa, where they built themselves a treehouse in which to live there in order to survive. Meanwhile, a gorilla couple named Kala and Kerchak are traveling with the rest of their group when their infant son is killed by a leopard. The next day, the heart broken Kala hears a distant cry and follows it, stumbles upon the treehouse. She enters the treehouse to find it trashed and blood paw prints everywhere on the floor. Kala...
