    "There's only one Return, OK? And it ain't of the King, it's of the Jedi. Oh what the fuck happened to this world? There's only one Trilogy you fucking morons..."

    I love that scene :D

    I was underwhelmed with it. When I heard Kevin Smith had written a scene like that, I was pretty excited... much as I love LOTR, there's plenty of material there for ridicule and parody. But it was pretty lame I thought... just not very funny.

    Eh, agree to disagree. I think it's hilarious.

    I've seen only that scene on youtube, never the whole movie, so that might have something to do with it. Just seemed to me like Randall was way more cutting and pointed in Clerks and that scene seemed much more... I dunno, mainstream humor. Less wit.

    Glad someone mentioned the spaghetti westerns, I love those but they are not exactly a trilogy, well they sort of are in that there's 3 of them with Clint playing a similar character.
    Whatever, they are 3 great movies, and true, the graveyard scene in Good, Bad.... is one of the greatest movie endings ever (damn I almost said climaxes there....won't invite any of that talk here :mrgreen: )
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    I was thinking of this scene immediately after reading the title of the thread. I do like LOTR though. But Star Wars is THE trilogy.

    Back to the Future I and II were pretty amazing. I is one of my favorite movies ever, but I hated part III.

    1. Original Star Wars
    2. Lord of the Rings
    3. Indiana Jones - not counting Crystal Skull and I loved Temple of Doom
    4. Back to the Future


    Worst? Tie betwenn the Matrix (one was awesome, two and three sucked ass) and the Star Wars prequels (one and two sucked ass, three was awesome).

    Pirates was like the Matrix - one was great, the other two not so much. I don't think that was intended to be a trilogy originally anyway.
