Gremlins 2 was quite good actually, it just doesn't make any sense to compare the two because the sequel was intentionally shot as a parody of the first one and horror movie sequels in general. It would be like comparing lethal weapon to the naked gun.

Ghostbusters 2 is also pretty good. In no way is it even close to being as good as Ghostbusters, but it is still good by sequel standards.
