Terminator 2, while not as good as the original in most ways, is still esteemed in many people's minds (including mine). But Robocop 2? Yeah, it's not so hot.
Predator 2 is underrated. I liked the way that they evolved the Predator's gadgets/culture, and I always enjoy seeing actors cast against type like what they did with Danny Glover, making him the loose cannon who pisses off the police chief but dammit, he gets results. Plus the fact that everyone is perpetually sweaty is just funny.I like P2. It's so different from the 1st but manages to hold it's own. Aliens is still better.
And I agree that the different location/feel is a nice departure from the first when most sequels try and mimic the original as closely as possible. Plus, there's tons of action and violence, and who doesn't love that?
