31 on 31: Fantasy Edition | Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars and Narnia Ranked

[@Silly81]

Off topic, I’ve been a subscriber of yours since 2018, always wondering why you’re numbers were low given the fact that you put out excellent content and exceptional reviews. Now you’re close to 90K subscribers and I’m damn proud for your success. 100K is within reach and may you have much more success for the future, keep kicking ass 🤘🏾

The third act of Two Towers contains what is easily the greatest battle sequence of any epic fantasy or sci-fi blockbuster. It's not just exciting; it gets my blood pumping like nothing else. And the visuals are beautiful to look at. I even love the buildup to it, with the king musing glumly on his people's prospects as we see shots of elderly men and little boys being suited up and armed for battle. It really raises the tension by emphasizing the desperation of this kingdom, and once the fight is joined, great expectations are more than fulfilled.

[@ryanulinski3]

Great ranking! I love all films in this. Funny enough I met Elijah Wood last year at Motor City Comic Con, took me three hours in line, so I popped on The Fellowship of the Ring on my phone and it finished right on time when it was my turn to meet him. Awesome guy!

[@colinbaldwin313]

That movie's runtime was never too long. Nor was it too short. It concluded precisely when it was meant to.

[@seanyonthemic]

The Lord of the Rings has always been special to me. Some of my favorite theater experiences came from the Lord of the Rings. The extended cuts just elevate them for me. They are special to me. I wish my dad had been alive to finish the trilogy out with me. Star Wars is awesome :) Harry Potter is fun enough. The Hobbit should have been one long movie instead of a trilogy, but I still enjoy them for the most part. I prefer the books of Narnia over the films, but the first Narnia film I saw with a big church group and that was fun. I respect your takes on these Cody since you’re not a fan of fantasy.

Im there with ya bro, my first early theater experience come from LOTR trilogy(saw all 3 in theater), Star Wars PreQuels and early X-Men movies. King Theodens speech before charge at Pelinor Fields is still top tier.

[@lethalus3494]

@@seanyonthemic It's funny when I was young I liked the 3rd and 2nd the most just because of the big battle sequences and the scale. Now that I'm older and understand film a little more I think the first is the greatest. The opening intro is the best scene in movie history. Perfect cast, perfect score and a timeless story that relates to the real world.

People seem to forget that "subverting expectations" doesn't automatically mean that it's a good choice. Sure, having something different can be good and/or refreshing, but that's no guarantee that it will work.

[@jacindaellison3363]

You can say that again!

Also I'd like to add on that "subverting expectations" is not always going to work for everyone.

I agree with your Lord of the Rings take but I'd say Fellowship is the best. The Hobbit trilogy was such a let down I think all of the Harry Potter movies are better (not fantastic beasts).

I grew up on Lord of the Rings and Star Wars and became a Potterhead 2 years ago, love rewatching these franchises some of my favorites Masterpieces 1. The Return of the King (an absolute masterpiece of a film, the only flaw of the film is that it has too many endings) 2. The Fellowship of the Ring (my most rewatched film of all time, does a phenomenal job of worldbuilding, characters are interesting and people you can relate to) 3. The Two Towers (my favorite trilogy growing up, I just didn't like this one as much as the other two) 4. Deathly Hallows Part 2 (Very satisfying payoffs, love the action sequences, and has great character moments) 5. The Empire Strikes Back (Best Star Wars film, takes the original and ups the ante in the right ways) 6. A New Hope (Classic film, one of the greatest of all time, the only problem I have with it is that it starts out kind of slow) 7. The Prisoner of Azkaban (best-directed film of Harry Potter, very unique visual style, and who doesn't like a time travel story) Great 8. Order of the Phoneix (duel between Voldemort and Dumbledore is my favorite moment in Harry Potter, Umbridge is a good villain) 9. Sorceror's Stone (great introduction to Hogwarts, very magical film, I have rewatched this one the most of the Harry Potter films) 10. Return of the Jedi (loved the relationship between Vader and Luke but feel like other aspects of the film haven't aged as well, never liked the Ewoks) 11. The Force Awakens (Rewatched this one recently, had a blast with it, lots of fun, Kylo Ren is great) 12. Rogue One (I call this one Episode 3.5, it does a good job of bridging the gap, hallway Vader scene is one of the best moments in Star Wars, underdeveloped characters that I didn't connect with that much) Good 13. Deathly Hallows Part 1 (The chase scene is really well done and thought it did well adapting the first half of the book) 14. Chamber of Secrets (good adaptation of the book, slow at times and drags a bit which is understandable but it's enjoyable) 15. Goblet of Fire (I thought Mike Newell did a poor job of adapting the book, the tone at times feels off too. He should have built on what Alfonso had done in the previous film like how Chirstopher Nolan built his Dark Knight trilogy, needed to be more consistent within the Wizarding World) 16. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (Nostalgia glasses might be on for me since I grew up with it so I have happy memories with it, used to watch it on my birthday when I was younger. I like this one more than I probably should) Solid 17. Revenge of the Sith (Best of the Prequels, this one has grown on me and will probably continue to do so) 18. An Unexpected Journey (Best of the Hobbit films, cave scene with Gollum was the highlight) 19. Half-Blood Prince (the cinematography is visually unappealing, it's too dark, did not do a good job of adapting the book) Average 20. The Last Jedi (ruined Luke Skywalker in my opinion and the Rose Finn plotline is one of the worst in Star Wars) 21. Solo (a pretty safe film that doesn't take a lot of risks but that's ok, it understands what it is) 22. Rise of Skywalker (tried to undo The Last Jedi so the narrative wasn't as smooth as it should be) 23. Prince Caspian (fun adventure film but it's fine, doesn't do much for me) 24. The Desolation of Smaug (CGI is way overdone, Martin Freeman is good as Bilbo though) 25. The Phantom Menace (it's grown on me a little bit but still has its flaws) 26. Attack of the Clones (bad acting, cringy dialogue, and a romance I don't buy, felt like a video game at times Bad 27. Secrets of Dumbledore (best of the Beasts films but that's not saying much, felt underwhelming) 28. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (not interested in the main characters, doesn't have the Harry Potter magic) 29. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (It's not memorable and feels rushed) 30. Battle of Five Armies (don't stretch out a section of a novel that is about 5 pages into a 2 hour movie) 31. Crimes of Grindelwald (one of the worst films I've ever seen, very convoluted)

In terms of sheer quality return of the king is the best. The dialogue, the acting, the cinematography are perfect and done so well. It has reaches these levels of perfection where other films on this list struggle to. However, I did rewatch prisoner of Azkaban yesterday and I really underestimated it’s quality. But I do respect this list, Empire Strikes Back is possibly the best sequel of all time. The famous quotes, the character development and the dynamic of Yoda and Luke on dagobah aswell as Vader and Luke in the final act has always been memorable for me

[@christianknight3014]

Well I am a pretty big fantasy fan in film and book form. So mine is definitely different but differences are what makes things interesting, I wouldn't want to watch someone of the same opinion, that's boring yet many people forget that. 31. Crimes of Grindelwald(not a fan of the trilogy so this is going to fill out the bottom three) 30: Secrets of Dumbledore 29: Fantastic Beast 28: Voyage of the Dawn Treader(As a fan of the book, this tried to make a story that was just episode in nature and tried to tie it with the most generic fantasy plot you can imagine). 27: Rise of Skywalker(saw it once in theaters, haven't gone back, probably won't unless someone wants to watch it). 26: Last Jedi(cinematography and performances are generally good or great, story and delivery of it's message along with character handling not so much). 25: Battle of the Five Armies 24: Chamber of Secrets 23: Goblet of Fire 22: Solo 21: Force Awakens 20: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe 19: Attack of the Clones 18: Rogue One 17: Phantom Menace 16: Deathly Hallows Part 1 15: Return of the Jedi 14: Prisoner of Azkaban 13: Desolation of Smaug 12: Prince Caspian 11: Order of the Phoenix 10: Unexpected Journey 9: Deathly Hallows Part 2 8: Philosophers Stone 7: Empire Strikes Back 6: Revenge of the Sith 5: New Hope 4: Half-blood Prince Lump the Trilogy into one movie as my second favorite film of all time 3: Two Towers 2: Return of the King 1: Fellowship of the Ring

[@jaredliebergen1179]

Fellowship of the Ring is my favorite movie, so it's my #1 and Return of the King and Two Towers are my #2 and #3. I'm also in the very small minority that I actually like the prequel Star Wars trilogy a lot (way more than the sequel trilogy). I really like the Jedi at the end of their prime and the lightsaber fights are at their best. I know it's not the best reason to like a movie, but a good lightsaber fight entertains me. Looking forward to the debrief, I think there are a lot of differences in rankings!

[@jaredliebergen1179]

I'm watching this for fun a year on, and the way Cody describes Fellowship of the Ring--my favorite movie, and he says he felt exhausted watching it--that's how I felt watching John Wick 4. I liked it, but really felt that run time. I do not feel that watching the extended edition of Fellowship.

@Mark S there are actually 9 saga movies mate, I would like to forget a few of them as well lol.

[@carynwitthoft4178]

We had like a week or so that we set aside that every day we would watch one lord of the rings movie, I think we watched the extended versions and sometimes we wouldn’t be able to finish the whole movie that day do to circumstances but I fell in love with them. Sure you might get exhausted with them if you do a movie marathon but I think the right way to watch them is one movie per day

[@brycestrong1904]

I Completely Missed This

[@akihikosanada2020]

Cody definitely would've liked LOTR much better with the theatrical cuts. That being said I actually enjoy the last Jedi quite a bit because it tried to do something new and whether it succeeded or not I'd rather a movie try something new like TLJ than a movie that tries way too hard to stick to the status quo and retcon everything (ROS). I know that TLJ kinda retconned some stuff from TFA but idk I really enjoyed the concept of Luke's character arc and I LOVED the twist that Rey is a nobody. It makes the force feel so much better imo as you don't need to be the son or daughter of someone special to be able to use the force. ROS was incredibly safe and went back on everything I enjoyed about the previous movies

[@colinbaldwin313]

I'm glad that I watched the theatrical cuts of LOTR when I first got into the trilogy. I still haven't seen any of the full extended editions, but from some of the clips I've seen, I'd say they are a positive addition to the films. I seldom prefer the extended cuts to the theatrical ones. (Take Peter Jackson's King Kong, for instance; the extended edition adds a couple of gratuitous prehistoric-creature attacks and a silly gag involving a truckful of soldiers). However, when you have a franchise as inherently lore-filled as LOTR, I think they're in order.

[@tyleroutland435]

Love a new hope now the first half was to slow for me but once Luke meets Han and resuces Leia and blows up the first death star. And meeting a old obi wan that was amazing

Great list as always! If you were to make another action based 31 on 31, you should include The Terminator franchise as well as the Daniel Craig 007 films

[@Kurtsg10]

I do happen to love the family-friendly/high fantasy genre (which is what I consider Star Wars, Harry Potter, LOTR, and Narnia). 1. Return of the Jedi- my favorite Star Wars movie due to the triumphant ending for the heroes and I don't mind the ewoks (although I agree that they should've been wookies instead of the child-friendly teddy bears) due to Warwick Davis 2. Empire Strikes Back- the best movie in Star Wars in terms of acting, story, direction, and writing but its depressing ending makes it not as enjoyable as Return of the Jedi 3. Star Wars a New Hope- the little movie that started the Star Wars franchise. It's a great tribute also to Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon, and The Hidden Fortress. 4. The Return of the King- wraps up the story on such a triumphant note and with equally amazing battle scenes 5. The Two Towers- amazing battle scenes 6. The Fellowship of the Ring- the movie that started the LOTR movies, I love it but prefer the other two due to having more action and victories for the heroes 7. Deathly Hollows Part 2- my favorite of the Potter movies, ends the series on a triumphant bang 8. Prisoner of Azkaban- a great Potter movie with excellent direction, but it doesn't wrap up the story convincingly like the one above 9. Sorcerors Stone- the Potter movie that started it all and made excellent creative decisions despite studio pressure (like keeping it in the UK and including JK Rowling as a creative presence) 10. Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe- my favorite of the Narnia series with great effects and performances by the cast 11. Prince Caspian- a solid Narnia movie, but not as good as the first one 12. Dawn Treader- the weakest of the Narnia movies, but I still find it quite enjoyable and preferable to those below 13. Deathly Hollows Part 1- had a great setup for the finale 14. Order of the Phoenix- I would've ranked it as my least favorite of the Potter movies but it has great villainous performances by Imelda Staunton and Helena Bonham-Carter 15. Half Blood Prince- also a good movie, but not as good as the rest above 16. Chamber of Secrets- a good movie, but not as good as the rest above 17. Goblet of Fire- the Potter I like the least but still consider good and watchable only due to weak performances and a depressing ending 18. Fantastic Beasts- started the post-potter movies off on an interesting note, but not as good as the others 19. Rogue One- the best of Disney Star Wars with some neat characters, effects, and a story, but had some plot holes due to the troubled production and ended on a depressing note 20. Crimes of Grindelwald- suffered from story bloat and none of the characters really engaged with me like the Potter ones but with a good performance by Johnny Depp 21. Secrets of Dumbledore- the weakest of the Potter movies, but with a good performance by Mads Mikkelsen 22. An Unexpected Journey- it started on a promising note, but also suffered from the story bloat of its sequels 23. The Desolation of Smaug- fun but a bloated mess 24. The Battle of 5 Armies- fun but a bloated mess 25. Revenge of the Sith- the best of the prequels but still full of bad performances, story flaws, and bad creative decisions by the director/writer 26. Phantom Menace- had cool effects and some good performances, but failed to live up to the hype and made some bad story decisions plus jar jar binks 27. Solo- entertaining but made some stupid story decisions and the troubled production showed, plus overrelied on CGI 28. Force Awakens- it began the Disney trilogy with considerable promise, but made a number of story and cannon errors that got worse with each passing movie 29. Attack of the Clones - the worst of the prequels, the one that was truly about "British politicians" instead of "American Freedom fighters" plus with a waste of the great Christopher Lee 30. Rise of Skywalker- was entertaining, but was clearly rushed and made disastrous story decisions even if it was still better than its predecessor 31. The Last Jedi- ruined Star Wars for me and had a terrible storyline that overwhelmed any performances or cinematography or effects

[@TheEagles80]

I always watch your videos because you pretty much have the same tastes and opinions as I do in regards to movies. .. I probably said that before. But never has it been more evident til now. I'm not a fantasy guy really. I'm a star wars guy yes...middle earth ..took me forever to get into. I remember my friends dragging me to return of the king and I hadn't seen the other 2....took a 4 hour nap. Finally watched them and really like them..however my ex wife made me watch the Harry Potter movies with her ..probably payback for making her watch every Halloween movie...I can't remember one thing about them.. not 1. I know I watched . But I must have blanked out. Not my thing..along with Narnia and fantastic beasts..never saw and have no desire. So basically I can only relate to 17 of the 31 movies. Star wars and middle earth movies. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the debrief

Man...where was the thunder when discussing the Marvel movies, lol. Thor would've been proud. I'm a fantasy person, but different realm of fantasy. Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Legend, Willow, Hook...stuff like that. The movies in the franchises you did are SO LONG and I just give you so much respect for sitting through ALL of these hours of film to do this ranking. Especially since its not your genre of choice. I just watched Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring and I liked it, but I've yet to find time to do the other two. I have done Harry Potter and those are enjoyable, but I've not done the new ones. I didn't even know there was more than one Narnia and just...No for Star Wars. I can't get into it. I've tried.

[@shatendraseethiah2217]

Whether you love or hate The Last Jedi, at least it decided to go somewhere. Colin Trevorrow's Duel of the Fates would have continued and concluded it. The fact that they didn't plan out the trilogy would still have been felt, but at least it would have been a somewhat coherent experience. Instead, The Rise of Skywalker backed out on everything and made the whole trilogy feel more discombobulated than it already was.

Score: 3/4 8) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban "For Harry Potter, at least, the third time's a charm." Score: 3/4 7) Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back "A spectacular sequel to 'star wars' but not as good." Score: 3.5/4 6) Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi "the film catches many of Star Wars’ most important themes. It tells me that organizations such as ‘The Empire’ and ‘The First Order are doomed to fail because the story of Luke will continue to inspire others, even long after his death." Score: 3.5/4 5) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 "Well done Harry! You've saved the best for last." Score: 3.5/4 4) The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers "Peter Jackson's Tolkien adaptation hasn't lost its devastating humanity, its heart-stopping cinematography or its epic sweep." Score: 3.5/4 3) The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings "shot through with an aged-in-oak sense of wonder, the trilogy's first film so thrillingly catches us up in its sweeping story that nothing matters but the vivid and compelling events unfolding on the screen." Score: 4/4 2) Star Wars "George Lucas has made the kind of sci-fi adventure movie you dream about finding. When I first saw this film, I was blown away, and have remained blown away ever since." Score: 4/4 1) The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King "Those who have walked beside these heroes every step of the way on such a long journey deserve the emotional pay-off as well as the action peaks." Score: 4/4

[@ashlielove6513]

I'm the exact opposite of you where I have no hardcore nostalgia for star wars as much as others in my family. I was born in 89, so missed out on the theater experience for the original 3. I liked the prequels but didn't love them. I grew up reading Harry Potter on the other hand, so those movies hold more significance. I like Goblet of Fire but they took so much out of the movie from the book it could have been so much better. Same goes for Half Blood Prince, which is actually my favorite book because of Voldemorts back story. Purely from a movie standpoint however, in fantasy there will never be another film experience like Return of the King. I cry every damn time and will be watching LOTR every year till I'm dead 🤣 It's hard to believe they were made over 20 years ago now and will stand the test of time imo.

Never was a fan of Narnia. Actually agree with your placings of Star Wars movies. Generally watch your horror movie reviews, glad I came across this one. Lord of the Rings in my mind is ten times better than The Hobbit Trilogy
