Anyway, back to the matter at hand
Despite massive competition, I feel that the Cornetto Trilogy deserves a place on everyone's Top 20 trilogies list and maybe it's a bit of a stretch but I'd just about squeeze it into a Top 10 list if only because of the easy charm of the leads.
My personal Top 10 would read something like this (everyone will have a different Top 10 . . . that's a given):-
1) TOY STORY 1 - 3
2) DOLLARS TRILOGY
3) GODFATHER TRILOGY
4) INDIANA JONES 1 - 3
5) TRILOGY OF THE DEAD
6) TERMINATOR 1 & 2 + 3
7) SPIDER-MAN 1 - 3
8) NAKED GUN TRILOGY
9) CORNETTO TRILOGY
10) JERSEY TRILOGY
Admittedly Top 10 out of the dozens of film trilogies is nigh on impossible with so many out there but possibly an easier task if you only rate one or two of the three films in the trilogy. A few examples like that would be for me the first three DIE HARD films (out of those don't like #2 for some reason) or the BACK TO THE FUTURE films (for some reason only warmed to #1) or the first three ALIEN films (only a fan of #1) or the HANNIBAL LECTER trilogy (again only a fan of #1) or the first three LETHAL WEAPON films (only a fan of #1) and so on.
Of course the blockbusters deserve a place on most folks' lists such as THE LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy, STAR WARS original trilogy, JURASSIC PARK original trilogy, BOURNE 1 - 3, IRON MAN 1 - 3, CAP AMERICA 1 - 3 and so on.
