Three classic trilogies--

What about the Evil Dead Trilogy?

well, you answer first T-Dog

I voted Godfather, but I think we're missing out on another classic trilogy in American cinematic history:



JOOOKEEESSS!!!!

I voted Star Wars.

LOTR all the way!

As long as it's the original Star Wars, that beats the other two



course I haven't seen the Godfather so...

The Lord of the Rings!!!!!!!

Back to the Future.

I liked the first and the third movie in the Back to the Future trilogy, but never really cared for the second film.

Naked Gun!

Although #3 didn't do a whole lot for me.

LOTR and Star Wars

here is something novel.

I am predicting that the "Twilight" trilogy will be my all-time fav

I loved Godfather 1 and 2, but three didn't make it for me.

Otherwise it was a tough draw between LOTR and Star Wars, but after a five round bout, i went with LOTR.

I was also thinking of Pirates of the Carribean. The movies arent that great, but Jack Sparrow takes the Rum.

shalom
bro mark

Twilight....


:vomit:

my tastes range from horrid to sublime

got a love a little romanza though eh?

I just got back from a road trip during which time I drove for 4 hours with my friend Vanessa, who is in LOVE with the serious. She literally spoke, uninterrupted, for 2 and a half hours about Twilight, giving me the entire storyline as well as commentary and characterizations.

This leads me to say...Twilight == lame...

"The Eagles are coming!"


LOTR kicks asphalt!

We need an emoticon with Gandalf fighting the Balroc.....kind of like the Star Wars one.......................

.
.......don't ask me how to do it .....does dUST not have enough to do? .....I just like coming up with ideas.




.....ONE RING TO RULE THEM ALL AND IN THE DARKNESS BIND THEM... ..

Well considering the first two movies are exactly the same, it's not really a trilogy, is it?

I forgot about Back to the Future.

But a trilogy quiz should only have three choices, should it not?

I still can't believe that The Godfather only got two votes!

The final movie in the Godfather trilogy was pretty weak.

True, but the first more than carries the weight of it's errant sibling.

Bourne Trilogy baby!

I totally agree - the old Star Wars is WAY cooler. It was a tough choice for me between Star Wars and LOTR, but I had to pick Star Wars.

I second this trilogy... another good one left out.

Lord of the Rings or Back to the Future.

Lord of the Rings all the way, baby! Great story (even if Jackson skewers it a bit), great action, great characters (even if he also skewered people like Faramir and Elrond ) and awesome battles and special effects! I'm rereading the books!

However, I think that Frodo dropping his sword like a weasel on Weathertop, and Gollum splitting apart Frodo and Sam were awful blasphemies, but as a series of movies (or one movie) they are wonderful! I love Gandalf and Boromir especially!

are we talking books or movies?

The title of the Poll says it all...

Lord of the Rings all the way. It has so much more meaning to it than Star Wars does.

Those hobbit movies were boring as hell. All it was, was a bunch of people walking, three movies of people walking to a volcano.

LOTR, long versions

Lord of the Rings isnt really a trilogy, its simply one book and story divided into 3 bound books and 6 sub books (2 book parts per book). I am sure there is a word for it hahhaha.

But It is definately my favorite!

I suppose that would be a simplistic way of looking at it.

The Lord of the Rings couldn't have done better but its more of a story broken up into three parts whereas star wars is six parts and it is 1 generation so I say
STAR WARS ALL THE WAY.
"May the Force be with you"

I'd rather leave Godfather III up to my imagination.

Star Wars' Jedi could have been better.

LOTR wasn't completely done according to the books.

LOTR wins

Star Wars changed the way of special effects.

I wound up voting LOTR, though the movies are vastly inferior to Tolkien's books. (Though they're still an impressive piece of fantasy film-making in their own right.)
However, I'll admit that by the time the entire movie trilogy was over in the theaters, I suffered from a bit of hobbit-fatigue.
Some major downsides to the movie LOTR were Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom prancing around in that girly blonde wig, and the miles of of footage of Aragorn and Liv Tyler in her big pointy Vulcan-ears pining away for each other. (It's one thing to strip down from a lengthy novel to make a movie move along; another to add tons of slow-moving sappy coagulated milk nowhere found in the source book).

If it weren't for Part 3, The Godfather Trilogy would give LOTR a strong run for its money. And as the original Star Wars trilogy played a large part in my young childhood, I'll always have a soft spot for it (despite Lucas' later CG atrocities).

Though comparing a crime drama to two fantasy adventures is kind of comparing apples and oranges.

LOTR.

Wow, we agree on something!

FOTR was good. The other two were terrible, IMHO. Viggo Mortensen was a terrible Aragorn, he just didn't have the necessary gravitas. I also disliked the "artistic liberties" that were taken with the books, including Aragorn coming to the "rescue" of Boromir at the latter's last stand, Aragorn being dragged off a cliff by a warg, the aforementioned scenes with Arwen. Basically, I just didn't care for the Aragorn character, and that gutted the movies for me. Viggo Mortensen was to Aragorn what Hayden Christensen was to Darth Vader, with the attendant impact on their respective movies.

you rock kafka. except it's got four books not three.

LOTR = pure awesomeness.

Pirates of the Caribbean too...

NOBODY DISSES ORLANDO.

But Elijah Wood was an insult to the books. Completely destroyed a good character in the books. Made him look like a weak fool.
