The condition that many sequels to successful films suffer from: re-hashing of plot points, shoving the best parts of the original back in your face until you almost hate it, ETC, all while trying to make the movie "bigger and better" than the original through the addition of an over-abundance of special effects, or new characters that you just dont care about (or, on some occasions, omitting major characters that people DID care about). Sequelitis can make one of 2 things happen: the third film will back off and be much better than the second, or part 2 will have been so awful that a 3rd never even gets made.
I dont remember there being a "Men in Black 2" until I saw it the other day, and now I remember why I forgot it to begin with. "Lets take a smalljoke and turn it into a main character!" Totally suffers from sequelitis.
A spiritual sequel, sometimes called a spiritual successor, is a successor to a video game, movie, novel, comic, stage play, or television mini-series. Instead of being a standard sequel, spiritual successors share genres, themes, styles, and often developer teams, without continuing on a previous story. While this term can apply to almost any content, it has most commonly been used in video games.
A person who cannot wait for the next installment of their favorite movie to have one last adventure with the characters. Lately this has also branched out to video games and TV shows when no direct movie sequel can be created.
Sequel Nerd Comments:
I cannot wait for Tron: Legacy so we can see what happened to Flynn!
Back to the Future: The Game is going to be great, they even got Christopher Lloyd to be the voice of Doc Brown!
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was decent but I hope they can make up for it with Indiana Jones 5!

Person 1: Ouch, Lee DeWyze's debut album only sold 141,000 copies.
Person 2: Sounds like a badcase of Sequential Season Syndrome.
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!

another term for a station wagon, mini-van, or any other kind of vehicle that is targeted at the "family" demographic(also M.A.V.)
