Not so much as a positive example, but The Hobbit. They're all equally average.

With 24 Bond movies, no way would we agree on all of them. I love A View to a Kill, so I have no room to judge Neither do I. I liked Batman And Robin, so my tastes in entertainment may be considered 'weird' to some people. The Naked Gun People criticize 33 and 3rd, but it's still insanely funny and fits perfectly with the other 2. Great example! I know I am one of the few,but I have disliked T2 since I saw it in a theater when it came out. Love the first and 3rd films. But haven't bothered watched T2 in close at 20 years. I understand. Avatar was a huge hit and I got bored with it. What if all three movies are total ass? Then you either have a low budget trilogy or a porno. Avatar I turned off about 30 minutes into it. For me James Cameron has made two great films,then a bunch of crap. |

I can see why some would get restless with the extended Two Towers but the theatrical version might be the best of the 3 theatrical versions. But then that was just an awesome theater experience with my pick for the absolute greatest climactic scene of all time (basically anything from them charging out of Helms Deep, Gandalf arrives on the white horse, etc.). Just breathtaking. In fact the Battle of Helms Deep was such an epic struggle there I don't think anything in ROTK quite topped it. Sure it had more scale and bigger armies, but after seeing 3 main guys, some old men, and young boys take out an army of 10,000 orcs, I never much felt the entire army of Gondor was in as much jeopardy.

The Battle of Helm's Deep is the finest spectacle in all of the six Middle-Earth movies, as far as I'm concerned. The night setting and the rain really sets the atmosphere far better than the broad daylight settings of the Battle of the Pelennor Fields or the Battle of the Five Armies. |

Honestly I don't know if I'd rather have Batman Begins' weird action sequences or Dark Knight Rising doing ridiculous, almost cartoon levels of unrealism in a trilogy all about realism.
I mean there's a point where Bruce Wayne literally travels to the other side of the world in between scenes off camera without being noticed and with no explanation whatsoever.

There were potentially interesting scenes in how he got back into the United States, and then into Gotham, with no money, no ID, and no bat gear, but nah. |

Dark Knight Rises still feels like something Nolan had to do so he could make Inception. There's a lot of plot holes in Rises that seem too obvious to have been on accident. Also, I think all three Men in Black movies hold up. |
