Are These the Best Movie Trilogies of All Time?
If I told you that 2,000 Americans were recently asked to name their favorite movie trilogy, what do you think the #1 answer would be? Star Wars, right? Noooo siree.
The original Star Wars trilogy came in surprisingly low, while Indiana Jones took the top spot. Yeah, I know, I know... there's a fourth movie, but Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was conveniently excluded.
They did that with a few other franchises, too. Here's the list:
1. "Indiana Jones" (1-3) 39%
2. "Jurassic Park" (1-3) 37%
3. "The Godfather" 35%
4. "Back to the Future" 34%
5. (tie) "The Lord of the Rings" and "Die Hard" (1-3), 33%
7. (tie) "Pirates of the Caribbean" and the original "Star Wars" trilogy (1-3), 31%
9. "The Terminator" (1-3), 30%
10. "Toy Story" 29% (Part 4 is coming next year.)
11. "Home Alone" 28%
12. The "Bourne" trilogy 26%
13. (tie) "Iron Man" and "X-Men" (1-3) 24%
15. "The Matrix" 22%
