1a. LOTR 1b. Toy Story I don't think you can find a truly weak link in either of those series save for the multiple endings in Return of the King. Every other series seems to have a weak movie that screws it up. Star Wars - Phantom Menace, Indiana Jones - Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, etc. As far as quality film making for the ENTIRE series, these two come out on top.
NSFW but pretty much describes how I feel about this thread. <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b0sc-gS9AqM?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b0sc-gS9AqM?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
Can't believe I left out some like Beverly Hills Cop, Back to the Future, and LOTR. It looks like LOTR is pretty popular. Pugs
1) Star Wars 2) Man with no name series 3) New Batman movies (BB and TDK) 4) LOTR 5) Original Alien and Matrix (both amazing films that start off a so so trilogy)
Best 1,2 punch: Alien, Aliens Terminator 1,2 Superman 1,2 Pirates of the Caribbean 1,2 Die Hard 1,2 Kill Bill Once Upon a Time in China 1,2 Batman(Chris Nolan series so far) X-Men 1,2 Best Triology: Indiana Jones(first 3) Star Wars(4,5,6 only) Back to The Future LOTR The Man with No Name Trilogy/Dollars Trilogy Toy Story
Look, I love Star Wars as much as the next guy, but Back to the Future is my favorite. Here's a review from a kid who is easily ten years younger than me (ie. born around the time of the first one) but I like his reviews. They're more in-depth than I would ever do, and I remember trying to recap the 2nd one to a group for over an hour back in '89...
