| Although not a trilogy, my all time favorite is the original 5 Planet of the Apes movies. |

All these years, and nobody mentioned Jaws? Not only was it a ground breaker, it even was in 3D by the end.

Lord of the Rings.... EXTENDED EDITION. i wont even bother with the theatrical any longer, the extended editions add much more back story to the secondary characters.
and yes the Bourne series is a close second.

Well clearly it was the best.... Otherwise I would pick the Bourne set (to be fair the last 2 were really one movie :-/ ).
Edit: Well shite, I got fooled by the zombie as well :-/

The best will be "Pirates of the Caribbean" when the 3rd comes out.
Closely followed by the "Kill Bill" trilogy. |

Hmm, top three in no particular order (Excluding LOTR):
1) Back to the Future
2) Terminator
3) X-Men
All very cool in albeit very different ways...

The thing is about LOTR, it is unlike any book or film ever made. It truly investigates and involves in such a range of emotion from simplicity, fear, despair, hope, courage, redemption, triumph, peace, authority. I could go on infinitely. A true masterpiece. True. There is not a better book in the world. Could be argued against in film (I would never), but as much as I love say the Godfather, the Corleone family and its trevails across America and back into Sicily, do not even begin to touch the range of LOTR. There certainly are major moments (and Godfather 1 & 2 are together in my top 5 of all time), but personally that tale is one of simply despair. The Godfather starts at a crescendo in the opening scene, and basically everything is downhill from there....

perhaps because you're watching a fan giving homage to a book instead of an artist interpreting a book.

I found LOTR to be a lot of "sound and fury signifying...nothing"
I couldn't really connect with it.

ref Harry Potter, I am not in to movies like that either. Exception of LOTR but that is only because My wife is from New Zealand and while we were down there for a visit the hype was just too much to escape. So I watched the first movie on DVD, Then went and seen the second at the Embassy Theater which is where they held all 3 world premier showings of the LOTR Trilogy. From there I was hooked. Now I am waiting for the Hobbit to be made into a movie.
