Best Movie Franchise?

X-MEN AND LOTR ALL THE WAY!!!

The Star Wars Franchiase just got bigger. A 20 episode cartoon series called Attack of the Clones on Cartoon Network. Snore..... Star Wars doesn't really appeal to me. I am more of a Space Horror freak (Alien movies, Pitch Black, ect)

Which Star Wars films are you talking about, Mr Parker? The first two of the original trilogy or the first two of the prequels?

Oh, and can someone tell me what the Romera Zombia Trilogy is about. I've never seen nor heard of it.

To answer your question Jedi,the first two from the original trilogy,you know the ones with Han Solo and the Millinium Falcon? You might disagree which is fine,but I dont feel like there has been a good Star Wars film made sense Empire Strikes Back.I was really dissapointed with Return Of The Jedi.Some people actually think that one is the best of the original trilogy,I dont understand why but hey were all different.I love the Harry Potter movies also,cant wait till the next one comes out.

Amity and Kes,very well said,good points.

LORD OF THE RINGS!

i say lord of the rings.
i think the first two harry potter really let the books down.
hope the third will be better with the new director.

Actually, I'm guilty of being one of those who thought Return of the Jedi was the best of the trilogy. But Empire Strikes Back falls closely behind it in my book. Just curious, but why was ROTJ a big dissapointment to you? I respect your opinion though and can understand why you would like the original first two the best. And for the prequels, I enjoyed them but I thought GL could have done better, especially with the love story in AOTC. I'm sure you've heard many people say this but the dialogue exchanged between Anakin and Padme was horrible. Hopefully the Episode III will rock. I just hope GL can pull it off. I would hate for the last and final installment to be a great disappointment.

Harry Potter...can't wait to see the third one either. I wonder how they're going to do the rest of them, seeing as how each book gets bigger.

Well no movie franchise has ever done so much for movies than star wars. No movie franchise will ever achieve what star wars has. However with lucas's new greed inspired installments of the franchise which fall as failed attempts. I lost a lot of respect for the man. Coincidently my favorite franchise is george lucas inspired. Indiana jones Is my favorite. There is no icon quit like INDY. I guess LOTR is probably the most technically professional franchise, but for three films it seems to get very redundant at some points.

Yeah ROTJ was the weakest of the the three star wars films. I say three because there really is only three. Those other two "prequals" Are just empty attempts that focused on the special effects over depth of a story. Anyway i know alot of die hard star war fans who hate ROTJ, I to dont know why. The answer i get all the time when asking why everyone hated it so much. Is the Eowoks. Now That is the same reason i can't stand the film, but i still thought it was an acceptable end to a great story

To tell you the truth it was the prequels that made me a fan. But after watching the originals I have to admit that they are nothing compared to the classics. I still think GL is a guiness, but I understand with what you are saying. GL seemed to have gone crazy with blue screens and digital filming with the newer installments. I think he focused too much on effects instead of the actual story line. I like the general direction he's trying to go, but there's definintely room for improvements, such as the dialogue.

I liked the Ewoks, but then again my room is filled with stuffed animals. I'm a girl, so I guess you could say I'm a little biased.

I don't like Harry Potter, as you may have guessed.

Chalk up another vote for the Romero zombie trilogy. But I also love LOTR and the back to the future movies.
