re: Ghostbusters 1 or 2?

So you've named GF2, LotR (which some argue is not even a sequel), Aliens, Empire, and T2.

Those were off the top of my head.

And yes, all of the above mentioned are sequels. You wouldn't argue it.

And you even admit that you could maybe agree that it's at/near the top of comedy sequels.

I'll go ahead and take that back.

Seems to me like you even agree that it's "one of the best sequels of all time," even if just on the comedy concession alone.

Even if I did make this concession, that means little.

Kill Bill 2
Fa Yeung Nin Wa (In the Mood for Love)
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Saraband
Shrek 2
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
49 Up
Triad Election (Hak se wui yi wo wai kwai)
The Dark Knight Rises
Letters from Iwo Jima
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Before Sunset
Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol
Spider-Man 2
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
The Bourne Ultimatum
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
The Dark Knight
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Toy Story 3
Toy Story 2

These are all sequels that scored a minimum of 30% better (critics) than GB2. They have all also been released in the last 15 years. That's only the last 15 years.

GB2 is nowhere near one of the best of all time.
