But if you're talking about the DtV ones, I can only recommend a few. Aladdin and the King of Thieves was excellent. Return of Jafar wasn't as good, but if you like the characters, it's worth seeing. The two Lion King sequels are okay, but aren't a patch on the original. If I could steer you away from a few, avoid the Beauty and the Beast sequels and Mulan IIat all costs. They aren't just bad movies, they're downright insulting to the original.

I'd have to say that all the theatrical released sequels are good. My favorite being The Rescuers Down Under and Toy Story 2.
As for DTV i'll talk about the one's i own...
101 Dalmatians II- i'd say this is one fo the best DTV disney has made yet. it has an interesting storyline and the animation is pretty good. One of the best blind buys i've ever made.
Return of Jafar- Being the first DVT disney ever made, the animation sucks. The story is pretty good though, and it's worth seeing the characters again. I've always enjoyed the music, it gets stuck in my head.
Aladdin and the King of Thieves- The animation is stunning compared to Return of Jafar. i don't enjoy the story line as much but the genie makes it worth watching.
The Lion King II- This is one fo the best DTV there is! the characters are good and the music is awesome. "He Lives In You" is one of my favorite disney songs ever! Definately get this one!
The Lion King 1 1/2- This was one of the most successful if not the most successful DVT (i think). and it has good reason. i love it!
Hunchback of Notre Dame II- the story is ok, and the animation is horrid. I was really really really dissapointed when i watched this for the first time. Notre Dame itself changes architectual design like 5 times in the first 10 min. Ignorance of such detales really turned me off to this movie. if you are interested in this, deffinately rent it first then make a judgment about whether or not you want to actually buy it.
Mulan II- i was actually very impressed by this film. I hated the fast play thing, but the animation is almost as good as the original and the story is pretty good too! i'd say it's a good buy, i'd wait to get it at a cheaper price than like $20 though, lol
Tarzan and Jane- Ugh, out of all the DVT i own, this one i dislike the most. It just really really really really annoyed me and i hope that if diseny ever outs it in the vault that it stays there so that everyone fogets its existance, lol as you can tell i have harsh feelings but that's only because i love the original a lot! at least i bought this in a package with 101 Dalmations II, so i guess it made the buy worth while!
I hope that kinda helps! Good Luck!

My favorites are: Toy Story 2, Fantasia 2000 and Lion King 1 1/2. Lion King 2 Simba Pride and Return To Neverland were pretty decent too. I didn't like any others.

Anyhow, as stated, I also liked Return to Neverland, Lion King II (the music is a lot better than most sequel songs), and Mulan II. Mulan II was a really nice story with a few moving scenes and it does well to continue the original tale, my only problem with it is that Mulan's character kind of...well...become more feminine then necessary. Of course she is a woman anyhow, but there were too many "girl power" moments in the movie. Still, I enjoyed Mulan II and it definitely is one of the better sequels.
If you want to be really brave, you can try out Cinderella II. Though many many people bash this one, as a movie by itself, it is a delightful collection of Cinderella like stories.
The BatB sequel is a very nice, Christmas story that sort of strays from the original in that there is a slew of new characters that are only found in this movie.
Overall, I'd say get sequels to the original movies you really enjoyed. Chances are you'll end up liking it or at least learn to like it. I still have to give Hunchback II another chance.
