Many people argue, for example, that Frozen II is better than the original, but…what do our readers think? We asked DFB readers to vote on 10 different Disney sequels, and one came out as the clear winner. Find out the ultimate Disney sequel here!

We reached out to our readers on Instagram and Facebook (give us a follow on either platform if you want to share your thoughts in the future!) and over 40,000 readers voted for their favorite Disney sequel. Do you agree with this list?

5. Kronk’s New Groove vs An Extremely Goofy Movie

When it comes to these sequels, 11,000 readers were SURE that An Extremely Goofy Movie, the sequel to A Goofy Movie, is superior to The Emperor’s New Groove sequel, Kronk’s New Groove. 

Which sequel wins?

These sequels were direct-to-video movies, but they’ve both had followings due to the popularity of characters like Kronk, the henchman of Yzma in The Emperor’s New Groove, as well as Goofy and his son Max. Still, it looks like Goofy and Max take the win!

4. Lion King II: Simba’s Pride vs The Return of Jafar

Both Disney classic films Aladdin and The Lion King received sequels, and 13,000 readers voted for The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride over The Return of Jafar. Both of these sequels were released direct-to-video, and interestingly The Return of Jafar still remains one of the best-selling movies on home video ever.

The lions win!

Lion King II introduced the characters of Kiara, daughter of Simba and Nala, and Kovu, her Romeo and Juliet-type love interest, while The Return of Jafar tells the story of, well, Jafar returning from exile. Although The Return of Jafar was very successful, our readers can get enough of the bad boy lion Kovu!

3. Frozen II vs The Incredibles 2

13,000 readers voted for Frozen 2 over The Incredibles 2, though technically The Incredibles 2 received much better reviews than Frozen 2! Still, many readers argue that the music and the story of Frozen 2 are WAY better than Frozen. Who doesn’t love singing, “Into the unknowwwwwwwwn!

Frozen 2 wins!

Of course, this doesn’t mean that The Incredibles 2 isn’t also, well, an incredible sequel. And both movies have girl power superhero vibes, with Elsa striking out on her own to learn the truth about her powers in Frozen II, and The Incredibles 2 sees Elastigirl step back into her superhero role.

2. Ralph Breaks the Internet vs Finding Dory

In a head-to-head battle between Ralph Breaks the Internet, sequel to Wreck-In Ralph, and Finding Dory, the Dory-centric sequel to Finding Nemo, almost 14,000 readers voted for Finding Dory! While Ralph Breaks the Internet dives into Ralph and Vanellope’s complicated friendship, Finding Dory is the touching story of Dory trying to find her parents.

Dory! You won!

On Rotten Tomatoes, Ralph is scored at 88%, whereas Finding Dory is scored at 94%, so it seems like even the critics agree with you. You might, however, agree with some of our readers that these are two well-done sequels!

1. Toy Story 2 vs Monsters University

And the ultimate winner of Disney sequels, with over 14,000 votes, is…Toy Story 2! When put head to head with Monsters University, the Toy Story sequel is the crowned leader of Disney sequels. Widely considered one of the best sequels of all time, Toy Story 2 has a score of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

And the ultimate winner is…

Monsters University tells the origin story of Monsters, Inc. friends Mike and Sulley, while Toy Story 2 introduced fan-favorite Toy Story characters like Jessie, Bullseye the horse, and even Tour Guide Barbie!

Why you’ll NEVER see these movies on Disney+!
