Lord Of The Rings Memes

Indiana Jones 3 is as good, if not better, than any other movie in the series.

Back to the Future 3 is nowhere near on par with 2.

This is some ragebait right here

I disagree with the Indiana Jones ratings. The third movie was better than the second, and possibly better than the first too.

Awman, I didn't think matrix 2 and 3 where that bad.
I remember enjoying them.

I don't agree with most of those.

The bars for the LOTR trilogy are only that scale because of how long the movies are.

In what world is die hard 3 worse than die hard 2. It’s arguably tied with die hard 1 as the best one.

LOTR is the same as star wars. First one is 95%, second is 100%, third is 80%. Way too much climbing and whining in the third one.

Blade is definitely better than Blade 2 IMO.

I might pick Die Hard 3 over 2 as well, but it's been a bit since I saw 2.

I am fully aware I'm pretty much alone with my opinion, but I find Terminator 1 far superior to T2.

Even with the limited budget T1 manages to create a far more horrifying vision of an unstoppable killer coming after you. The lo-fi'ish synth soundtrack sets a perfect oppressive feeling. The casting is perfect, Michael Biehn' s scarred and wiry Reese with Hamilton's young and scared next door girl going against metal-Arnold in his prime is the epitome of underdog scenarios.

And the pacing is very good, the plot flows.

T2 is a good film, but like many sequels, it suffers from the "let's do the same thing from a different angle, but bigger and louder!" - syndrome. It doesn't really get to be it's own kind of beast. I was very surprised that Cameron fell for the trap, after he avoided that mistake with "Aliens". Switching genre from space horror to space action made that film stand firmly on it's own feet and the result was good.

Lastly, T2 has the young John Connor doing the "badass kid" - role, which so many seem to love. I just find the character annoying.

The meme is funny, I'm going to acknowledge that first.

But what are these rankings? Indiana Jones 3 is ranked the same quality as 2. Spider-Man 1 is ranked demonstrably worse than 2. Jurassic Park 3 is ranked work than Jurassic Park 2????

I know it comes down to a matter of opinion but I also have to wonder if the person who originally created this meme watched the movies, because those are some spicy takes.

I must protest this mistreatment of spiderman 3

Back to the Future is, as a whole, the best trilogy on this list.

Strong disagree on Back to the Future. The last one's probably the best one

I can't wait for Dune 3. If Villeneuve sticks the landing his trilogy will become for Sci-fi what LotR is for fantasy.

Terminator is a strange one. Cooked with the first movie, second one is somehow even better and then the third one is absolute ass.

This is bait.

Last Crusade is better than Raiders. Fight me.

Two towers is the weak link

Cruelly overlooked: getting Tremors 1, 2, 3 and Highlander 1, 2, 3 onto this chart.

...yeah, no...

Kinda telling how many of these are Spielberg, movie making beast

I know it doesn't fit the trilogy thing, but you left out the best Rocky movie: Rocky IV.

I love all three Godfather movies.

The Godfather, The Godfather II Part 1, and The Godfather II Part 2

That other one doesn’t exist as far as I’m concerned.

A lot of those crappy trilogies were not written all at once the way LOTR was. The more common case of writing follow-ups to cash in on the popularity of the original is a time-honoured way to make money while producing derivative garbage.

I feel like we need a different word to separate those “cash grab” trilogies from proper multi-part stories like LOTR.

Personally I enjoyed matrix 3 more than 2.

The Star Wars one could also apply to the sequels, keep the proportion but maybe lower by half? Ep. 8 certainly was the least bad.
