Although I really don’t like any of those particularly, I would have to vote for Star Wars V

That’s not only really sad, but also unfair, since you haven’t seen ANY of the other movies… I think I’ll add a rule.

I’ve had the Godfather 2 on my Tivo for over 3 weeks…still gotta watch it. As far as Star Wars, I saw it in the 80’s when I was just a little kid…I dont remember it.  😢

Godfather II. The others, excluding Star Wars, are excellent, but Godfather II is far beyond them.  The main difference being that it stands on its own. Kill Bill Part 2 should have been combined with the original as it was supposed to be and not cut in two because of length.  Two Towers is a great film and I’m a huge Tolkien fan but as a lone film it doesn’t stand up against the brilliant story and acting of Godfather II.  If we were talking triologies I would vote for Lord of the Rings; Godfather III wasn’t that great.

A quick word on Star Wars V. I would stab Lucas for making such horrible films after the first three were so enthralling.

“The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” takes place in an alternate world called Middle-earth, where the talking inhabitants have lifestyles rather similar to those of Europeans during the Dark Ages. One such inhabitant is a gentle, pure-hearted soul named Frodo (Elijah Wood), who is a Hobbit, a peace-loving, human-like race whose members are roughly half the size of humans.
