Quite a few sequels have to retcon the characters progression from the first movie to have a story to tell. What are examples of sequels who managed to avoid that? (piefed.zip)

It's been a long while but I think back to the future manage to squeeze in two sequel without retcon the character.

Except the whole "nobody calls me chicken" bit.
