Seems like today is a good day for polling. And yes, when I say "trilogy" I'm also talking about movies that people sometimes "don't consider a trilogy because it's one big movie" like Lord of the Rings. This thread is about trilogies where you would consider all 3 movies to be really good and on par with each other

So here's some of mine in no particular order:
1. Lord of the Rings
2. Star Wars (original trilogy)
3. Indiana Jones (First 3)
4. Back to the Future
5. Mad Max (even though there's 4 and I love the 4th one)

Oh, tough one.

Star Wars (IV-VI) - because IV and V are so fantastic
Die Hard (1-3) - because 1 and 3 are great (There were no movies after 3 right?)
The Matrix - because 1 is unbelievable
The Godfather - Even though I'm not sure there was a 3
The Dollars Trilogy - may be the best ever if you consider this a trilogy

Here are some I like other than the ones you listed- all of those are favorites as well.

Sergio Leone's Dollar's Trilogy

Chronicles of Ridick: really I just like Pitch Black and the Chronicles of Ridick, but the last one was pretty entertaining.

The Matrix Trilogy- even though the first is obviously the best, I thought the other two were fine.

The Bourne Trilogy: good action trilogy.

Scream 1-3: these were all a lot of fun to watch and I didn't watch them til like 15 years after their release.

Shaun of the Dead/Hot Fuzz/The World's End

Oceans 11,12,13

Aliens 1-3: I grew up watching these and actually think the second one is the best. I also like Resurrection

Silence of the Lambs/Red Dragon/Hannibal

Evil Dead/Evil Dead 2/ Army of Darkness

Terminator, Judgement Day, and whatever

The Animated Lord of the Rings- not sure if this counts or if the films were even made by the same company, but I had all three growing up and their versions of The Hobbit and Return of the King are especially great,

The three Aladdin movies. Really enjoyed these as a kid, even the third one where he meets his scalliwag of a dad.



Still have never seen The Godfather

While uneven, the last segment of Trilogy of Terror has pretty much haunted me my whole life.

Definitely a trilogy and one of if not my favorite since all three movies were on the same level.

Trois Couleurs: Rouge, Bleu, Blanc not yet mentioned. This is definely not a trilogy but one of them inspired the others to be made and watching them consecutively is awesome: Blow-Up, The Conversation, and Blow Out.

I honestly don't know what I was thinking leaving Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy off the list. I absolutely love those films.

You're input is always very much appreciated, highly valued, and in no way an attempt at trolling. EVER.

Thanks, ...brother.

I would say there are five of the Eastwood stranger movies:
The three Leone Dollar movies and the Eastwood directed High Plains drifter and Pale Rider.
