The Matrix Trilogy

This poll sucks. You forgot one of the best trilogies, "The Matrix"!

Pirates of the Caribbean 100%. I'm not saying I'm the movies #1 fan, but I'm probably in the top 50 fans list.

Red face What, no Bruce Campbell fans!!?

Maybe I was a bit too cryptic (or inaccurate on the wording- go figure) on earlier post. My favorite trilogy is the Evil Dead trilogy. (Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, and Army of Darkness). Maybe not critically acclaimed, but still one of director Sam Raimi's most creative work, imo. I know these films ripped off a lot of ideas from other films, but they also provided much original material to future ripoff artists! Bruce Campbell is a perfect fit for the role of Ash. Without him, this would not have been a series of movies. The project would have died after the original Evil Dead.

That was the hardest poll EVA to vote on. I just sat there staring going "I don't knoooooooooow!!! Why make me chooooose??!" lol.

After a lot of thinking with my love of Pirates, Star Wars, and Lord of the Rings...:sigh: I finally went with the trilogy that moved me the most, which was...

Lord of the Rings.

Everytime I went to see one of the movies (night it was released) I would always get very emotional and such just by the scenery, everything in those movies was just..perfect.

But omgs my love for SW and PotC is just as strong! :clings to her Darth Vader and Will Turner dolls: lol.

I wouldnt consider Final Destination a trilogy since there are, as of now, future movies planned. If I have to pick of the listed, I would say LOTR. I'm not a fan of that genre of movies, but they had me hooked.

I'm going to have to go with Eliza, as well, with the Oceans movies.

But there are several trilogies I like: Back to the Future, Beverly Hills Cop, the Meet the Parents trilogy, the Mexico trilogy (El Mariachim, Desperado and Once Upon a Time In Mexico), I can go old school with John Wayne (it's John Wayne), Rush Hour (? maybe), Fast and the Furious....there are many trilogies, all of which are going to be good to a wide set of audience.

It's all about preference of movie.

Thanks for all the replies and votes so far! Just to clarify, my intent for this poll was mainly just to compare the "Pirates" movies with other big trilogies that are in the same category. I probably should have titled my poll "Which PG-rated action/adventure trilogy is the best?" Anyway, that's why there's no option for "Godfather", "Bourne", "Matrix", etc. -- all of which I really like too. I just want to test your level of "Pirates" fandom a bit.

I probably could have added "Back to the Future", I just forgot about it. Oddly enough, I don't really think of "Indiana Jones" as a trilogy -- just 3 separate movies about the same guy. There's not really one continous storyline that runs through all 3, and not many recurring characters.

I've enjoyed seeing your votes and reading your comments.

I would have voted POTC if the Star Wars OT hadn't been there.

The only good movie in the Spider-Man series is Spider-Man 2.... >_<

And btw if Indy had been an option, I'd have voted it. Even though it's not a trilogy anymore.
