Movie 2 is the winner here.
Spoilers..
For War, they put out posters of an epic movie. That never happened. So we get a prison escape movie instead of an amazing battle of all time movie.

That poster was fricking awesone, one of the best ever:
But yeah, false advertising.

Not a trilogy, but I'd say the first Harry Potter movie was the worst . . .

Probably 3 to 4,000 great apes in the entire U.S., so for Caesar to have that poster army drawn from the northwestern states would be a bit too much.

I'll throw out the Austin Powers series as a nominee.
All three films were good, but the 2nd and 3rd were definitely better than the first. 2 and 3 were close.
Certainly not Rambo. 1-4-2-3 for it.
Indiana Jones is 1-3.....and 4. Temple of Dumb and the 4th one were both horrible, but at least the 4th one had nostalgia going for it.

It started with him seeming to be a very popular Sheriff of a small town who knew everyone by name. Opening scenes show him leaving to patrol in the morning and politely greeting towns people by their name. Seemed like a nice guy.
It is obvious that he didn't like or trust drifters. He liked to keep his town incubated from outsiders who he felt had no business there. We are probably to assume that he had done the "ushering out of city limits" routine a few times before without incident after he told Rambo "we don't like your kind here." He also seemed to be caught up in the anti Vietnam veteran sentiment that made his bias even worse.
When he looked in his rear view mirror and saw that Rambo had turned around on that bridge and started walking back to the town, he got triggered as hell and lost any sense of reason. Probably something that had never happened before and even if it had the culprit probably just not booked and stayed a couple days in jail. That's what he tried to do with Rambo. Rambo wasn't playing that and lost his shite when he started having flashbacks of being in a Vietnamese prison and being tortured. The Sheriff unknowingly screwed with the wrong guy and it escalated quickly. By the point that Rambo wrecked the station and busted up a few cops, the Sheriffs ego would not allow for anything less than what he considered victory.

I like the first Apes movie better than the second.
I would have to do a rewatch, but just going by memory, I can understand why. Rise was a great origin story that really could have been a disaster, but they pulled it off. Two and three go more the action adventure route. It felt like two and three were almost interchangeable. The battle sequence in Dawn could have been in War. I found myself kind of bored during War when they arrived to the prison. I was expecting a big battle like Dawn and how the poster teased, but I guess they didn't want to retread the same thing. I also didn't like how the movie time jumped from Dawn. Unless I missed something, I was hoping to see what happened to the characters from Dawn. I was hoping they were gonna pick up right where Dawn left off and then maybe fast forward from there.

I can think of a few that were as good or better by #3, I'd rate Ocean's, Captain America and Iron Man series to be as good if not better in my book, the three Christian Bale Batman's, Expendables, Mission Impossible, even Toy Story are as good if not better by #3.

Great film albeit predictable with the virus killing Woody. I felt like the avalache was conveniant Deus Ex Machina. I was very upset that the last scene wasn't the Icarus coming in from orbit. Fassbender would make a great Taylor.

They did. Cornelia was pregnant with Cornelius in that. The last one should have been called War and this one Escape due to the prison element.
