The Matrix.

The first one was great, the second one was meh, and the third one blew chunks. Don't think that's the makings of a good trilogy there.

Picking between my two favorite trilogies is hard, but I'd say Star Wars over Lord of the Rings. I give Star Wars the upper hand because I would rather be in the Star Wars universe than the LOTR one. I've always preferred light sabers to rings

You bash the matrix and then you say LOTR is good?!

Fuck man, LOTR and the Matrix were a load of crap. If you took out all the facial close-ups in LOTR, the movie would be like 20 minutes. It was comprised of those close-ups, and some shitty action scenes.

Horrible movies.

I had zero problems with LOTR, I thought it was amazing.

Also, a strange factoid: from a series of events I've managed to see The Matrix 1, 2, and 3, Star Wars 1, 2, and 3 and LOTR 1, 2, and 3 all on opening day. It wasn't planned at all, but I kept getting invited by friends or scoring tickets off a radio show (that happened for both Star Wars 2 and LOTR 3).

I pretty much assumed that, since you put it as one of your possible favorites!

Indiana Jones. Every other trilogy will at least have a few movies that either outright stink or bore me.

Sameeeeeeeee

The Qatsi Trilogy.

Haven't seen the last of the them, but if I had, I'd probably pick this trilogy too. And "the Dollars Trilogy" ("A Fistful of Dollars", "For a Few Dollars More", "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly"), if it can be considered a trilogy (Sergio Leone intended it to be one). Godfather Trilogy is great too, of course.

I liked the LOTR trilogy, but to call it my favorite? My advice to those that answered LOTR (or the laughable Matrix trilogy): see more movies. Quality movies at that. That means (basically) no movies made after 1990.

edit: forgot one trilogy I love: Yasujiro Ozu's "Late Spring", "Early Summer" and "Tokyo Story"

Also Police story trilogy....well now it's up to 5 movies, but the relation between the 4th and the rest is only in the title(even the main character has a different name) and the 5th one is not very consistent either.

I wouldn't consider it a Trilogy, but the El Mariachi movies were great! (El Mariachi, Desperado, and Once Apon A Time In Mexico)

What I should have said was, its not considered a WELL KNOWN trilogy.
