10. X-Men
Best of the trilogy: The Last StandWorst of the trilogy: N/A
Not my most favorite trilogy but was still enjoyable to watch. I do not follow the comics. However, when I was younger, I did watch the TV show which had a very catchy theme song.
Best of the trilogy: Rush Hour 2
Fun movie to watch and it will keep you laughing throughout the movie. I am a huge fan of Jackie Chan's movies and have watch many of his movies.
Worst of the trilogy: Rush Hour 3-Enjoyable but not as funny as the previous films
8. Spider-manBest of the trilogy: Spider-man 2
Movie had good build-up, character development and excellent pacing. It had all the things that Spider-man 3 did not have. I recommend people to watch Spider-man 2.1 as it has more action scenes.
Worst of the trilogy: Spider-man 3
My complaints on this movie:
1. Movie was too long
Solution: Cut out the unnecessary scenes (Ex: The Dancing Scene and when Spider-man became Gothic and "emo"
2. No development for any of the villain characters
Solution: Reduce the scenes with MJ and Harry Osborn (there was no need for a romantic/funny scene between the two)
3. Too many villains
Solution: Have only one or two villains (Venom & New Goblin, Sandman & New Goblin)

Notable mention: The Amazing Spider-man revitalized a franchise that had become a joke and was in need of a reboot after the awful Spider-man 3. This film far surpassed my expectations and was on par with Spider-man 2.
Best of the original trilogy: Return of the Jedi
Worst of the original trilogy: N/A
Best of the prequels trilogy: Revenge of the Sith
My favorite film in the entire trilogy (both original and the prequels). I mentioned why I thought this was the best in my previous post
Worst of the prequels trilogy: Star Wars: Episode 1- The Phantom Menace
6. Lord of the Rings
Blu-ray version of this movie has the best presentation and audio that makes this movie that much better
Worst of the trilogy:The Fellowship of the Ring
I felt that this movie did not have enough to keep my interested in the movie in terms of action and big moments.
5. The Matrix
Worst of the trilogy: N/A
The Matrix was nearly tied with The Matrix: Revolutions as being my favorite. The original beats the third film by a small amount. The original film was immensely entertaining. The movie was very popular at the time that future movies and games would implement slow-motion movement. Conker's Bad Fur Day was a Nintendo game that I played and in one part of the game, you got play the Matrix in a parody version of fury creatures.
4. The TerminatorBest of the trilogy: Judgment Day
Very entertaining movie and a blast to watch.
Arnold was in his prime during this time. I suggest watching the Extended Special Edition which is 154 minutes. Even though it is long, the movie does not disappoint.
Worst of the trilogy: Rise of the Machines
Enjoyable but not my favorite in the series
3. Toy Story
It was certainly hard to select which Toy Story movie was the best in the series since all three films are excellent. I watched the first film when I was a little boy, and the movie was fun to watch. The sequel, Toy Story 2 was also very good but I enjoyed the Toy Story slightly more than the sequel. I watched these two films in 2001, and as each year went by, I always wondered if Pixar would ever make another sequel. As soon as I saw the teaser trailer for the movie, I became so excited. I went to see my first ever 3D film in the summer of 2010. Toy Story 3D was such a fun experience and the 3D made the viewing experience so much better. Eventually, I had mixed feelings regarding 3D which was mentioned in my 3D post.
Toy Story 1 and 3 come very close as being the best in the series. If I had to pick, I would choose Toy Story 3 because the movie felt as if I grew up with Andy. It has been 10 years since the second film and he was off to college while I also started college. The beginning of the movie gave me past memories as a kid watching the first film. The ending of the film gave a satisfying closure to the series and I loved the ending. I was touched by the ending, but I did not have tears running down as many people may claim.
There are rumors of having a sequel to the movie and I would love another sequel and possibly, a new trilogy.

2. Back to the Future
Worst of the trilogy: N/A
This was such a iconic trilogy. Each film did not disappoint and was one of the most popular movie franchise in history. I always wanted a sequel but it may never come. A video-game of the Back to the Future was the sequel but in video-game format.

1. Batman (Christopher Nolan)
Best of the trilogy: The Dark Knight
I do not remember much of Batman Begins and I have not seen the Dark Knight Rises. However, I do know that my opinion on which film was the best in the trilogy would not change. The Dark Knight was absolutely a blast to watch. From start to finish, I was not once bored and some scenes kept me off the edge of my seat. I did not watch this in theaters which I highly regret. I watched this film on Blu-ray and every scene with the Joker was brilliant. The opening scene where the Joker robs the bank and reveals himself was truly iconic. The pencil trick and interrogation scene showed the tremendous acting from Heath Ledger. 
Worst of the trilogy: N/A
The Joker: "Oh, you. You just couldn't let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You truly are incorruptible, aren't you? You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness. And I won't kill you because you're just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever"
Words could not describe how iconic this scene was. This scene was also meaningful as the two rivals (Batman and Joker) may never be able to collide due to the death of Heath Ledger.
I disagree. None of the films of The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the worst. They're all beautifully done and great. You're crazy if The Fellowship of the Ring is boring.
ReplyDeleteToy Story should have been #1. I love the first and third movies but thought that the second movie was alright.
ReplyDeleteYou are missing the Jurassic Park trilogy!
ReplyDeleteHowever, good list overall. Not one single Toy Story was a let down.
You have to watch Dark Knight Rises!
Thanks for the feedback. I really thought hard on this list and had to exclude many other awesome trilogies!
ReplyDeleteI loved Blade, Pirates of the Caribbean, Austin Powers and Shrek (only the first and second).
