Better movie franchise: Matrix or Star Wars

As a fan which do you prefer ? Feel free to give your opinion on major characters of both franchises if they fought as well.

Star Wars. 3 good movies vs one. Then 2 bad movies vs 2. ROTS was average.

...Let me think on this for a while.

Star Wars.

Star Wars has 6 films. 3 are good. 3 are bad. 50% are quality.

The Matrix has 3 films. 1 is good. 2 are bad. 33.333...% are quality.

Star Wars is the better franchise due to quantity of quality. Also much fewer monotone voices.

I myself was more excited for Matrix. I also enjoyed them better overall. I loved the first two and didn't care for the third. I was never a huge star wars fan but the potential is there.

Also Smith would kick any Star Wars characters ass in the Matrix.

Darth Nihilus would eat Smith actually, even in the Matrix.

Star Wars.

Also, Return of the Jedi sucked ass, Revenge of the Sith and Attack of the Clones were better.

Come at me.

Star Wars
Ep IV, V, and VI progressively one-upped the previous film
Ep I was ok, II was poop, but III sort of saved the reboot.

The first Matrix was great and still is. The second has good parts and is watchable but isn't too grand; same for the third.

Star Wars should win.

Though I got more from Matrix 1 and the Animatrix than the SW films personally.

Well......Matrix films win for me. More thought provoking and exciting.

I can't in regards to battle which heavy weights beat who.
Jedis/Sith should wreck havok inside the Matrix. The Machines aren't aware of the Force.

Only the first Matrix is as good as the OT.

Ah, but you said any SW character, did not specify. 😉

Even if the Matrix sequels are "bad", I wouldn't say they're on the same level of bad as the worst of Star Wars.

Star Wars, overall, has better movies. However, it's space opera, a genre which has been around for almost a century, and already was done very well via Star Trek. So, on the positive, Star Wars has been very entertaining, but on the negative: been there, done that.

Virtual reality stories are much more recent, since the eighties, so there was more room for creativity. "The Matrix" impressed me as one of the most original films to come around in a long time, as well as being a better allegory for mystical awareness than Star Wars. However, it was basically a one-shot deal. The Matrix sequels weren't bad, but not as good as the Star Wars sequels (though I would say the Matrix sequels were better than the Star Wars prequels).

So, for pure entertainment: Star Wars.
For thought-provoking originality: The Matrix.

You have to give credit to The Matrix for doing something very complex and completely original. It was harder to make the Matrix work IMO than Star Wars.

Star Wars was more enjoyable but Matrix had better technicalities overall.

The Dark Knight trilogy is better than both.

i don't get why people think Matrix Reloaded was bad.

Hmm...the Matrix series produced groundbreaking visual effects that, however lacking "quality" as some say, was for some time the highest grossing film of all time (disregarding all the merchandise). However on the opposite spectrum, a series that (in its youth) consisted of its own groundbreaking visuals for its time, had plenty of "meat", the Star Wars films are of course a classic. That being said, I must go with the Matrix, because not only does it share philosophical meaning as far as liberation of the mind is concerned (which of course one could argue Star Wars makes the same stretch of ideal,) it is also the start of a trend of movies that prefered the Black trenchcoat, sunglasses, combat boot phase. Plus if your a Wu fan like me, you gotta go with the Matrix.
