It didn’t. It cost them $30-40M to make, and only grossed $41.5M at the box office. Studios don’t make sequels for break-even films.
It got good reviews, fans liked it - even John Wagner, the guy who created the character, liked it. I don’t know why it did so poorly at the theaters.
They filmed it in 3D, a BluRay of which I’m a proud owner, and it’s fantastic in 3D. It also explains some of the framing of many of the shots, even though (I think) they also work fine in 2D.
