8 Movie Trilogies Where the Third Film Is the Best

Comments

1. Wraith Sable: i'm surprised they're not including a trilogy that really tests the perfect ending, like Lord of the Rings. The Return of the King ending was iconic and well-crafted, but
2. Iris: I don't think it's an accident that the most satisfying trilogies are the ones where the stakes keep getting higher, not just plot-wise but also emotionally speaking. What do
3. Elias: haven't read a trilogies ranking that includes return of the king since like 2012
4. Cleo: can we please leave the obvious fan service rankings alone, and actually consider what made those third films work?
5. Nina: three out of eight is a pretty generous statement if you ask me
6. Noahreyes: Glad to see a case for The Return of the King being perfect, but wouldn't call it the strongest third act in an otherwise great series – that honor might go to Fellowship
7. Iron Cipher: yeah okay maybe if i rewatch them but i'd say the Return of the King is way too overlong
8. Vanta Lynx: tough act to follow after three movies that already knew their fate
