So which is your favorite and why? for me, its the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the grandure of the series is imense, with a cumulation of very talented actors, an exellent director, and a story that has a special place in the hearts of many thanks to the novels by Tolken himself. LotR truely feels epic, and stands bar none above any other production to date, at least to yours truely.

My geekyness won't allow me to vote for anything other than the original Star Wars trilogy. I grew up with Star Wars, and can't remember a time when I wasn't a fan. While some of my fandom of Star Wars may have diminished a bit over time with the disappointment in the lack of availability of the original trilogy on DVD, and the overall lameness of the new trilogy, the original trilogy holds the top spot for me.

I do give Lord of the Rings a close second though. ^^

Lord of the Rings for me...if it wasn't for the last Terminator,which wasn't "sci-fi" enough for me(truck chases are better left in cops and robbers movie hehe)i would of voted for Terminator...all those are awesome though(the first Alien is one of my top sci-fi movie ever).

The Star Wars Trilogy is probably my favorite. Though... I think it would've been better if someone killed C3PO somehow... *ahem* Anyway, yeah my two cents. :D Lord of the Rings is great too but who needs bows, arrows and swords when you have lightsabers, x-wings, and the Force? hehe And to Crush, yes the three ninjas trilogy is an honorable mention.

Original Star Wars Trilogy, with a caveat that also applies to The LOTR and Godfather Trilogies.

The first two Star Wars movies are exceptional but the series falls apart at Return of the Jedi. The same almost applies to the LOTR troligy as well, I'll explain. The third movie is by far the most powerful of the three but gets mired down in too much "Hobbit Love", crying, and too many "endings". Yes I have read the books and I know they even chopped out a lengthy bit at the end concerning the Shire, but it lessens the impact of the trilogy's closing. Now as for The Godfather, 1 and 2 are cinematic masterpieces, but the third installment is a major letdown.

I am going to choose a more perfect Trilogy as my write in choice.
