Trilogy Time

[Silver]

You can only rewatch one film trilogy for the rest of your life. Which is it?

For me:

---

The X-Men trilogy

Tossup for me between The Millenium Series (Swedish version) and the Blade movies.

The Millenium Series

Had to look it up, never seen it, but there appears to only be two movies.

I refuse to be pigeonholed into trinary thinking.

With you, I'm guessing the killing spree that began as a result of the death of a dog.

Woof.

The Millenium Series

Had to look it up, never seen it, but there appears to only be two movies.

There are three.  The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.


In the original Swedish, not the American version.

I own the DVDs, have read the books, and recently listened to the Audio books.

There are more in the series but they were written/finished after the author, Steig Larson, passed away.

As for any American version, perhaps there are two but I like the Swedish version better than the American Version.  Also, the main male lead of the first three movies passed away begore the next one could be made.

The BRD Trilogy: The Marriage of Maria Braun (1979), Lola (1981) and Veronika Voss (1982).

Generally speaking, most such series are not uniformly good, so one is faced with the lesser of two evils, either a trilogy that is uniformly decent, if underwhelming, or one that has one or two standouts alongside something far less commendable. Given that, I'd have to say the original Star Wars trilogy, whose titles are more or less all fairly entertaining, or the Matrix series, which, while possessing less evenness in their entertainment value, are overall quite entertaining. If I were to pick something based upon what I've heard but don't know from experience, I might pick a trio of Bergman films or the Tolkien Lord of the Rings trilogy. Though part of the appeal of both is not knowing enough to make a sound assessment of how I would feel about either after having watched them.
