Your top 5 movie trilogies of all time, and why?

Personally I like 1 and 3 but think that 2 doesn't quite fit. The tone's off; it's too intense compared to the other two.

The thing is, many of the most iconic pieces of the franchise, especially basically everything from 2015 (the giant video wall, the Reagan-themed diner, flying cars, the hoverboard, the sports almanac) are all from the second film. 1 definitely has its iconic moments, but 2 is almost unarguably the most iconic film in the franchise. The "Bad Present 80's" is all kinds of icky but (a) that's the point and (b) it's a relatively short part of the movie, and allow me to also bring up counterpoint (c), Lea Thompson.

It was also worth it for mad max Strickland.
