Indiana Jones 3 is as good, if not better, than any other movie in the series.

Back to the Future 3 is nowhere near on par with 2.
This is some ragebait right here
Wtf do you mean, part 3 is awesome and has some of the best humor in the series. Sure it's a bit derivative, but that doesn't stop it from being a better 3rd in a trilogy than most others. It's also got a lot of quotable moments, I quote this for just about anything that's hot
Well, I suppose if you had a straight stretch of track with a level grade, and you weren't haulin' no cars behind you, and if you can get the fire hot enough, and I'm talkin' about hotter than the blazes of hell and damnation itself... then yes
1 and 2 are about even. 3 is a little lower than them, but not by much.
The first two really are parts 1 and 2 of a story. The 3rd completely changes the scenery, which gives some people the impression it's not as good. It is though , and it ends the story well.
Then there's the fun fact that parts 2 and 3 were filmed at the same time. So the impression the films give is backwards from how they were made.
I've always preferred 3 over 2, even as a kid. The future stuff and the alternate 1985 are fun,, but the third act feels like such a retread of the first one, especially in a marathon situation.
I'm considering it better. Not that part 2 is bad, but I like part 3 more.

I disagree with the Indiana Jones ratings. The third movie was better than the second, and possibly better than the first too.
Hmm for me 1 and 3 are about equal (both fantastic), but 2 is my least favourite.

Awman, I didn't think matrix 2 and 3 where that bad.
I remember enjoying them.
I think Matrix Reloaded would be improved greatly by leaving out the Rave Zion Dance Party.
Low point.
They made viewers work to understand. Viewers largely rejected that.
Which has led us, irrevocably, to spoon fed trash that plays to the dumbest person in the audience.

Don't understand why people dislike those movies so much. Even enjoyed the 4th one.
They didn't deliver on the promises that Neo made at the end of the first movie. They're quite different than the first film. The 4th one was an obvious cash grab by the studios. The Wachowskis didn't want to make the movie, and they straight-up tell the audience in the movie that they were forced to do it, or let someone else do it.
The fourth was sort of hilarious on that point. HERE'S YOUR STUPID MOVIE! I'd have been pissed if I was expecting something different, but I laughed my ass off.

I don't agree with most of those.
The bars for the LOTR trilogy are only that scale because of how long the movies are.
In what world is die hard 3 worse than die hard 2. It’s arguably tied with die hard 1 as the best one.

Blade is definitely better than Blade 2 IMO.
I might pick Die Hard 3 over 2 as well, but it's been a bit since I saw 2.
Die Hard 3 is commonly thought of as one of the good ones. The other one is DH1.
DH2 isn’t very memorable outside of ~2 key moments.

LOTR is the same as star wars. First one is 95%, second is 100%, third is 80%. Way too much climbing and whining in the third one.

The meme is funny, I'm going to acknowledge that first.
But what are these rankings? Indiana Jones 3 is ranked the same quality as 2. Spider-Man 1 is ranked demonstrably worse than 2. Jurassic Park 3 is ranked work than Jurassic Park 2????
I know it comes down to a matter of opinion but I also have to wonder if the person who originally created this meme watched the movies, because those are some spicy takes.
Most people think Spider-Man 2 is the high point of that series, and sometimes superhero movies as a genre. I think they got that one right.
I'm one of them, I'm just saying it's a closer call between Spider-Man 1 & 2 than this chart denotes.
(And Spider-Man 3 is not that bad.)

I am fully aware I'm pretty much alone with my opinion, but I find Terminator 1 far superior to T2.
Even with the limited budget T1 manages to create a far more horrifying vision of an unstoppable killer coming after you. The lo-fi'ish synth soundtrack sets a perfect oppressive feeling. The casting is perfect, Michael Biehn' s scarred and wiry Reese with Hamilton's young and scared next door girl going against metal-Arnold in his prime is the epitome of underdog scenarios.
And the pacing is very good, the plot flows.
T2 is a good film, but like many sequels, it suffers from the "let's do the same thing from a different angle, but bigger and louder!" - syndrome. It doesn't really get to be it's own kind of beast. I was very surprised that Cameron fell for the trap, after he avoided that mistake with "Aliens". Switching genre from space horror to space action made that film stand firmly on it's own feet and the result was good.
Lastly, T2 has the young John Connor doing the "badass kid" - role, which so many seem to love. I just find the character annoying.
I agree with you!

Strong disagree on Back to the Future. The last one's probably the best one

This is bait.
I can't wait for Dune 3. If Villeneuve sticks the landing his trilogy will become for Sci-fi what LotR is for fantasy.
I still want him to do God Emperor. If anyone can do it, it's him. Also, I want James McAvoy to reprise his role as Leto and that's the only chance of it happening.
Terminator is a strange one. Cooked with the first movie, second one is somehow even better and then the third one is absolute ass.

Last Crusade is better than Raiders. Fight me.
What about side by side with a friend?
...yeah, no...
Cruelly overlooked: getting Tremors 1, 2, 3 and Highlander 1, 2, 3 onto this chart.

I know it doesn't fit the trilogy thing, but you left out the best Rocky movie: Rocky IV.
Kinda telling how many of these are Spielberg, movie making beast
really ought to make people realize that letting people do what they're passionate about results in amazing products, this is how we got the london tube map as well.
I love all three Godfather movies.
The Godfather, The Godfather II Part 1, and The Godfather II Part 2
That other one doesn’t exist as far as I’m concerned.
