I do sequels as one movie simply because my mind can't separate them and rank them differently. With that said...

1. Back to the Future / Back to the Future II / Back to the Future III
2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
3. Spider-Man / Spider-Man 2
4. Batman / Batman Returns
5. Ghost World
6. Office Space
7. Sideways
8. My Girl / My Girl 2
9. 12 Angry Men (Henry Fonda version)
10. The Slums of Beverly Hills
