Your favourate film trilogy?

Well i cant really change your mind here, and neither do i want to because at the end of the day its your honest opinion and so i have no right to.

However thats how the book is, its all about the characters and if you go into the movie thinking its all special effects then you will be disapointed!

The books and the films will never be to anyones taste and niether does it state to be!
 
Best

The Omen
Back to the Future
Scream

Worst

Lord of the Rings
The Matrix
Star Wars Episodes 1-3 (3 isn't out yet but its like brussel sprouts, you just know you don't like it)
 
how can anyone deny that the matrix is the best trilogy ever? some people might come out and the lord of the rings is the best trilogy ever. well apart from the obvious fact that it is without a doubt one of the best stories ever told it still remains to be a story. the matrix deals with nearly all genres in the film industry. there is no ending which is phenomenal! it enRAB neo's story but then again it doesnt end the struggle of humanity. it does shine light onto what human hate and slavery can cause. the philosophy involved reaches out further than are we really here? it deals with causality fate destiny in such a way that u feel that u know everything yet have so much to learn. include that with excellent cinematic mastery and such effects that cannot be re-created. the matrix opens doors to show truth and sheer excellence and then slams it straight back into the face of film makers showing them up for failed masterpieces.

without a doubt a classic and the best
 
looks like i'll have to add the international flavour.
my favourite trilogy is the Bengali trilogy:THE APU TRILOGY,which consists of:
1.PATHER PANCHALI
2.APARAJITO
THE WORLD OF APU
directed by the late and great SATAYJIT RAY.

hat's off La Cosa Nostra and to my favourite slackers too:Jay and Silent Bob
snoochie boochies:p
 
Well, it's not that I can't stand them, but they are greatly overhyped (same thing with the novels which are a boring read).

They are huge productions, epics even, but that doesn't by definition mean they're good movies. I really think a lot of people are blinded by the scale and technical achievements and don't really see they're too long and boring and not the masterpieces they aspire to be.

I really do laoth it when people pu their opinion across but always suger coat it to make it sound like its a fact and everybody else feels the same way as them! Which is absurd.

I however respect your opinion bigar but my opinion is i love them. I have read the books and think they are gorg, and i am not blinded by the sspecial effects at all. Infact this is one of the few films that i have watched that the special effects are blended into the storylines and it seems to me at least, second rated. In answer to the long and boring bit, well yes it is long but so are the books.........and so are the Matrix films!

Now i am not dissing the matrix here but if you wont to slag off a film with a long running time and some how manipulates its viewers with special effects then you cant leave the Matrix out.

So please when you are making your opinion out, please dont use the same paint brush to brush everyone with, because not everyone is liking the LOTR films and books because the special effects etc, and not everyone who watches the matrix only watch it for the special effects! Though some strangely do:confused: lol nevermind.

LOTR is a bit like marmite really, you either take it or leave it. Fortunately, call me stupid or pathetic or dumb, but i took it and liked it.

If you want to see a film that is REALLY overrated then i give you Pirates of the carrabien.......i mean great film but it werent THAT great lol.
 
What's sometimes described as a loose trilogy are Terry Gilliam's three films: Time Bandits, Brazil and Baron Munchausen. So that'd be my choice if indeed they can be called a trilogy.

Failing that, Terminator, although part 3 wasn't up to scratch, and I also really like the Scream films.

I cannot for the life of my understand why everybody isn't utterly bored to tears by the LOTR films. None of the characters are believable, and the events seem to have been thrown together at random. There's no narrative to speak of, and if there is a point to any of it I stopped caring after the first million years, sorry, hour :D. I can only assume that the book is completely different, and that people who read the book when they were five are so happy to have a film version that doesn't totally suck they'll forgive Peter Jackson anything. But I never read the book, and coming at it as a film, there really is very little to recommend it.

Unfortunatly the movies are a very close to the book. I never understood why people liked it, and this is now extended to people who like the movie trilogy.
 
I'm not a 'Western' fan, but I'd take the 'Dollar' trilogy to my desert island. So there you have it..............

Fistful of Dollars.
For a few Dollars More.
The Good the Bad and the Ugly.
 
Nope I liked it. Although I love anything with Al Pacino.

Best

The Godfather
LOTR
Back to the Future
The first three superman movies (the fourth one doesn't count, it was soo bad)

Worst

The Matrix movies (all very over hyped)
 
if ROTJ was as good as the other 2 i'd have no hesitation to say the original star wars trilogy, but i really don't like that film much... pity as ESB is one of the best films of all time, with ANH just behind it... IMO of course ;)

the indiana jones trilogy is similar, 1st one fantastic, 2nd one not as good but OK, 3rd one just couldn't get into.
