I think Star Wars works both ways, it's one saga but it can be thought of as two separate trilogies mainly because they have different protagonists.

Two great films, one dodgy one. High end of the middle group.

I see Star Wars IV-VI as the Anakin Skywalker Trilogy.
So, I place these trilogies over the TDK Trilogy. Pirates of the Caribbean (not counting On Stranger Tides) Jason (Bourne) Toy Story Anakin Skywalker (Star Wars) The Matrix The TDK Trilogy would have been a lot better if they all had the same tone of Batman Begins.

Surely a Trilogy is only a True trilogy when there is one story arc or major connection which joins the 3 movies together (which isnt just the central character?)
For Example the Indy films (and i Love the Indy movies, sans Crystal skull)are all seperate, stand alone stories... that was the intention when they were made, in the vain of older matinee adventure movies. The only connecting factor is the character. Much the same as the Potc movies are not ALL part of the same story arc. The first 3 possibly are (at a stretch) but with the fourth the only connection was Jack Sparrow (and the franchise did not start out as "TheJack Sparrow Story") The Dark Knight Trilogy works because it is the continuation of a bigger story arc. Starwars.... is a tricky one. Im older and therefore count the original Trilogy as the greatest and the prequel trilogy seperatley... but i guess.. it is ALL one big story and so.. ..i dont know... I guess the prequels are anakins story and the original Lukes so there are 2 different trilogies there. The Matrix... just got too messy for me. Toy story is right up there (im assume everyone classes it as the ANdy Trilogy ![]() Back to the Future, hmmmmm first two 10/10... the third... erm... not 10/10 I cant wait for a Dark Knight Marathon at home, with My buddies and Beers (Will send the wife out shopping for that one) I think that is when i will truely know where this story fits in my collection. |

The only truly "Flawless" trilogy is Toy Story.
In the close but no cigar section are Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Back to the Future, and yes, The Dark Knight trilogy. If I had to rank them in terms of closest to being flawless, it'd go like this 1. Lord of the Rings 2. Star Wars 3. The Dark Knight 4. BTTF So yes, Nolan's trilogy is certainly amongst the greats, but so far nothing has managed to match what Toy Story did. Three nearly flawless films that not only make a great larger story but also stand up individually just as well. |

Toy Story 2 wasn't that great IMO. Feels a bit straight to video-ish to me. (I know the story behind it and yes it's AMAZING that they were able to make it as good as it was).
Toy Story 3 was leaps and bounds better IMO. Every trilogy has a film that some people consider a weak link. |

I would put the LOTR, Star Wars (OT), Bourne, Toy Story and Back to the Future trilogies ahead of the Nolan Batman trilogy. Iron Man can't be a great trilogy (thanks to IM2) but it does have the potential to have its third film being the best in a superhero trilogy for the first time.

You'd think on a batman movie forum that a batman trilogy would be number 1 on bat fans list.

I think if LORD OF THE RINGS didn't exist, that would be a lot more common.
