The Thin Man
Rocky
Puppet Master
Star Trek
Beverly Hil ls Cop
Rambo
X-Men

...damn this is tiring...

What about Batman and James Bond and the Leprechaun series?

no James Bond?!!

10 options maximum, had to make choices. But If I had 11 options, I would have put James Bond in the poll

Only the first two Terminator movies are good.

The word franchise fills me with dread, it usually signifies a movie that is given sequels based purely on the success of the original & the money making potential of making more, rather than having a valid continuation. Case in point being Pirates of the Caribbean, the first film ended there was no need for more. Of those on the list I would choose Back to the Future, it is the only one in which all the films are enjoyable & tell a unified story.

Lord Of The Rings

Die Hard

I would have voted for the Godfather movies or Indiana Jones if only both of them hadn't made their final installments. As a write-in vote I might choose the Bourne movies. Again, this is before the new one is set to come out without Matt Damon or even the "Jason Bourne" character. But out of those choices I picked The Lord of the Rings movies. I think they did a good job of showing one continuous story.

There is probably no movie franchise that knew when to quit ... on a high note.
To make for a solid franchise, I would say there would have to be at least 3 solid movies in it. I haven't seen all of the movies in the poll. But, from the movies in there that I HAVE seen, to the best of my recollection, for me, they pretty much all have only 2 solid installments.

Since Jaws isn't on there .... Just Kidding! :rofl2:
For the Poll, I'll give the edge to Star Wars because it had 2 first solid installments and then there in one of those later installments it introduced Cutie Natalie Portman. I got a kick out of how that huge creature in the arena just happened to have slashed Natalie Portman's uniform Top very Sexily at an angle. :bowdown:

For a franchise that had 3 solid installments, I'd say Rocky.
After Rocky III, the franchise fell apart.

The Godfather was the only series where none of the movies disappoint. All the rest had ups and downs, and Star Wars just plain sux ass after the first two. And as someone who read the LotR books (plus appendices, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion) countless times, don't get me started about the movies.

And you forgot Harry Potter as a choice.

 

[Spleen]

Funny that all of them have massively shit sequels. The only 2 that don't, in my opinion, are Back to the Future and LOTR.

Back To The Future

Johan - you probably had to make sacrifices here. We all know and understand that.

And yes, the best one here, isn't....

Sylvester Stallone -- Rocky Balboa



And who cannot include the James Bond series of films:

 

[lechepicha]

LOTR for me, please.
