Which is better?
Which is more fun to have a triple feature with?

Jasonic · 03-24-2014, 02:03 AM

Can you please just stop?

sycro · 03-24-2014, 02:04 AM

Is this really even a question?

One is 3 amazing movies. The other is 2 great films and a plot hole filled mess.

toddly6666 · 03-24-2014, 02:05 AM

add a tie choice because they both tie as superb trilogies.

Mandalorian · 03-24-2014, 02:05 AM

What's the better thread? The Avatar vs. Watchmen one, or the Dark Knight vs. Lord of the Rings one? This is the more important question! Which is it!?

LegacyCosts · 03-24-2014, 02:37 AM

Death to all superhero films, except dredd. Lotr of course.

chris_sc77 · 03-24-2014, 02:40 AM

All are excellent movies.
I sense the OP has a fetish for super long excellent films like I do as well.

Did not even have to think about this one - Lord of the Rings Trilogy

Gizz · 03-28-2014, 09:15 AM

Voted for the Dark Knight trilogy.Not a fan of the Lord of the Rings films at all.

Scarface32 · 03-28-2014, 12:35 PM

I have some issues with Batman Begins. One is the way Nolan pronounces Ra's Al Ghul, another is that he turned Ducard into an alter-ego for Ghul. In the comics, Henri Decard a knowledgeable detective with excellent man-hunting skills, and Bruce Wayne approaches him in Paris for training. Nolan was both sloppy and lazy by combining them.

That said, I picked he Nolan trilogy because 90% of LOTR is boring.

— you can hear it pronounced correctly in this video.

"It's not very hard to choose between the two, is it, Precious??"

CaptainYoda · 03-28-2014, 02:07 PM

I went with Batman becuase LOTR movies are just too darn long.

lol that's all Nolan's trilogy has going for it...that it's shorter than LotR.

I only liked The Dark knight, myself.
Voted LotR of course.

AKORIS · 03-29-2014, 03:59 AM

I'd much rather watch the BATMAN series so that gets my vote

Lord Of The Rings, while good, are bottom line the most overrated series in the history of cinema imo

kylor · 09-24-2020, 02:42 PM

The Lord of the Rings easily!

imsounoriginal · 09-24-2020, 02:45 PM

Theatrical Lord of the Rings is the greatest film trilogy ever made.

The Dark Knight trilogy is fine but it's no LOTR.

DR Herbert West · 09-24-2020, 03:53 PM

Rings

Jerry2345 · 09-24-2020, 05:45 PM

Even though I like both, LOTR still wins this by far.
