[choombaz]

A few more:
Bourne 1-3
Toy Story 1-3
Oceans Trilogy
Dollars Trilogy

 

[Mondragon]

Bourne 1-3

Bourne films are definatley underrated, have gone back to them a few times, first three hold up well.

Could likely break down the Bond films into a best three in row. Just have to pick which three.
As well as the MI films.

Can't remember everything else down the pike for the next two years, yet I anticipate ^this will be the next one added to my list. (though still bellow the Scifi channels TV mini-series)

SW is pretty much spent, depending how well they connect (and Gilroy seems to have hinted they will) , the above may hold up as a new trilogy.
The Matt Reeve's Batman has still yet to convince me, if a trilogy is even worth it.
I don't care what this new bloated mess of a suposed Gollom trilogy will be.
The only Marvel I'm looking forward to is TVs Daredevil.
I don't even know what DC is doing?
Avatar 3? The first two were just ok.

Godfather three made one mistake. Sophia Coppola.

She single handed wrecked that film.

No other film in history was ruined worse than Godfather 3 by a single actor.

In some ways it wasn't her fault. Her father should have realised she wasn't up to it and not cast her. But then a lot of poor decisions were made during the making of that film.

The Godfather Trilogy is my favourite, even though I don't care for Part III. The first two are masterpieces of cinema.

The first three Alien films also make a very good trilogy.

Yeah I mean I think Winona Ryder was in that role I think and she got sick or pulled out at the last minute. I really like that film, I think it’s better than what most people say, and no one is to blame for its failure, I think papa just panicked and said here you do the role. It must have been really intimidating. The directors cut is a little bit better.

I totally agree. Mostly it's Papa Coppolas fault for not re casting her. ..

I actually Like the film outside her scenes. The unfortunate reality is , even if you discount her awful scenes prior to the end, you cannot lose the scene where she is shot, as it's the core plot of Michael's arc.

And it's just embarrassing to see her total flat reaction in that scene.

Shes even bad playing a corpse....and her "love" scene she's about as dead in that scene also.

I can’t hate the film that has this in it:

Do we consider Star Wars as separate trilogies, or just a series?

If so;

Star Wars Original Trilogy
Star Wars Prequel Trilogy
Back to the Future Trilogy
Jurassic Park Trilogy (I enjoy JPIII) - Jurassic World I consider a separate trilogy
Captain America Trilogy (although not sure if we consider MCU movies trilogies or just part of the 20+ movie long "Infinity Saga")
Cars Trilogy
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
The Man With No Name Trilogy
Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy


There have been mentions of others that I love but I don't consider them to be trilogies anymore (Indiana Jones, Toy Story, Die Hard, etc.)

The only exception to the above is Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy, which I know is technically a 5 movie series. However, considering the first 3 movies are so linked by an overarching plot, have consistency in the central characters of Jack, Will, and Elizabeth, and have overall recurring antagonists in Barbossa, Jones, and Beckett, I consider the first 3 movies to be a trilogy and the subsequent 2 movies to be separate. "The Curse of the Black Pearl", "Dead Man's Chest", and "At World's End" are a wonderful trilogy of movies, IMO.
