Do the three Monty Python movies count?
I think all the listed ones are crap. Expensive crap in some cases, but crap. I've been taking film classes but I still love music much, much more.

There are 4 Monty Python movies.
And Now For Something Completely Different still counts as a movie even if it is merely a repackaging of sketches from the series.

El Mariachi
Desperado
Once Upon A Time In Mexico.
not even LOTR includes a cooking lesson in the DVD extras......
LOTR is probably the best (and the most faithful film (to the book) out there, most really miss the entire point of the novel)
talking of that, I struggle to watch the Bourne films, because they dumbed the story down so much. an entire subplot and explanation completely mangled. essentially theres only 3 things that the film got right , his "name" is "Jason Bourne" (well its true for a bit), he has amnesia, there is a secret organisation called treadstone. all the rest is completely made up.
and Die Hard isnt a trilogy, remember there was 4.0, with a completely unrealistic representation about the internet and power of computers..... (films are bad regarding the portrayal of technology)

No Indiana Jones? Yeah I know there's a fourth one, but people like to pretend that one didn't happen.

Kieslowski's Blue, White, Red >>> three fantastic films rerspecting the colours >> I'm pleasantly surprised so many people like it or evenb know of it. 
And then Ennio Morricone and Sergio Lerone''s Spaghetti Western trilogy : For A Fistful of Dallars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good The Bad and the Ugly 
The other one (once upon a time) isn't bad as well

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Other. The Godfather. In the following order of preference: Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3. Parts 1 and 2 could not be any better and Part 3 is OK I supose.

I was wondering if anyone else would say Evil Dead. Definitely gets my vote.

LOTR, because, like the books, it is really a single story and was filmed as a continuous work. Most trilogies have a successful start and then the 2nd two are added...to mixed effect.
I know I'm old, but what about Back to the Future? |
No Jay, you are not old because those, both are my favorite films of all time... but I voted for BTTF because they are out of votes right now... I know Marty agrees with me in this one...
Actually I found Bourne Identity as a solid effort with no weak points but can't stand a chance with The Lord of the Rings and Back to The Future... also the first two Spidermans are quite decent a better than most any comic book based movies but the third one was a total failure... the worst Venom in history...
Special mention to Matrix... solid but with some holes in between that makes them not a flawless... but yeah... Marty Mcfly rules... the one in the movie, the one in the site...

Exactly my words... I get really excited while I was missing the climax part of the film... but it was a pleasing pee...

The Sissi trilogy.
Well, if I ever had any street credibility... 
I love the Indiana Jones trilogy, and the original Star Wars trilogy. LOTR was good too, but I wasn't too happy with the first movie of the three.
I haven't seen much by Sergio Leone, but I absolutely love The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

I find Spiderman's lack of faith disturbing. (Hope it explains.)
