Favorite Sequel To Be Nominated for Best Picture Oscar
[Under Construction: I have not yet decided which films to include, as there does not seem to be consensus as to what qualifies as a sequel. Please feel free to weigh in, especially with lists besides the ones that I have referenced (Mental Floss and Screen Rant). (Personally, I don't know enough about MCU to weigh in on one, and I don't consider the other two in question to be sequels but I'd prefer basing this on archival research.)]
The 2023 Oscar nominations made history by being the first time two sequels have been nominated for Best Picture in the same year. In 95 years of Oscar history, few other sequels have been nominated for Best Picture. There is some debate about which movies should be considered sequels,* but for the purposes of this poll, nine are included. (Two of those sequels won the coveted Best Picture Oscar.) Which of these nominated sequels is your favorite?
After voting, discuss here.
*It has been argued, however, that 'Silence of the Lambs,' 'Black Panther' and 'Letters from Iwo Jima' were also sequels: Screen Rant, for example, counts the latter two as sequels and Mental Floss includes 'Silence of the Lambs' on its list of sequels to earn Best Picture nominations from the Academy Awards. Because this does not seem to be a consensus opinion, however, these three are not included in this poll.
