You could think I'm a freak, but if I have to choose the best trilogy ever made I would choose, without any doubt,  , BACK TO THE FUTURE.
Better than the Goodfather, Marty McFly's journeys are an amazing mixture of adventure, sci-fi and comedy...
And what about Emmett L. Brown? He's great! Did you know what means the "L." of his name? Lathrop. Reversed, more or less: "Porthal". Emmett Lathrop ---> "Time portal".
I never see in a sci-fi film anything so amazing as The Flux Capacitor...

The Matrix would be near the top of my list, note because of the plot or anything important such as the quality of the acting (not) but purely for the special FX
Indianna Jones of course and maybe also in my top 10 would be Die hard

Have to agree Talisker I love Die Hard triology though not as big a fan of the 3rd one.
For me though the original George A. Romero movies are a must, not counting Land Of the Dead as to distant in time from the other 3 though still a very watchable film that I hope to have shortly :D

Without Land, I would choose Romero's trilogy.
But Michael J. Fox... He's so great! From here best wishes to Michael J. Fox!!!! :D :D :D
I bought yesterday the whole Back to the future trilogy with a DVD of extras. It seems that there are more than 9 hours of extras in the four discs!

The Frightners with Michael J. Fox, directed and written by Peter Jackson was an excellent movie. I know that Michael has Parkinsons and has had several operations to stop the tremors but is still busy working the last i heard.
Good luck to him and his family.

Watching that site you posted about, I entered in the page aboot the film with Michael J. Fox and viewed a picture of a guy simmilar to Marc Singer (moronic Donovan in V). Intrigued, I searched in IMDb Marc Singer's career and realiced that HE WAS THE BEASTMASTER!!! Of course!!! But I never realiced that till now!!!
The beastmaster was a great film by, nothing more nothing less, DON COSCARELLI... The world is so little...
I loved that film! Specially the monsters stood and quiet that can eat you with a single movement. Do you remember them?

| Just been having a think - how about the 3 Terminator movies :D :D Not a trilogy as such, pretty much the same story told 3 times, but damn good popcorn movies! |
