I ended up voting for James Bond because though I love science and everything involved with it, there's something about spies, even though it's highly fictionalized, Ian Fleming was one of my heroes growing up and I loved reading the books/watching the films.Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 19 at 2015 5:53 PM2015-04-19T17:53:17-04:002015-04-19T17:53:17-04:00SSG Private RallyPoint Member602637<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Star Wars.

Where to start, where to finish? All of these movie Franchises have a lasting impact. From the visuals of middle earth in the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit, the story of a boy wizard that inspired millions of children to read, to the Iconic 007, the first and last word in spy movies, to Star Trek, the movie that boldly gone where no one has gone before, to the Incredible story and ground breaking effects of Star Wars. <br /><br />Each one is near and dear to hearts all over the world. I will still vote for Star Wars though. While not the oldest, it had the most impact on me growing up.Response by MSgt Robert Pellam made Apr 19 at 2015 8:02 PM2015-04-19T20:02:46-04:002015-04-19T20:02:46-04:00Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS602921<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I had to say James Bond, just because it transcends the generations different than any of the others.<br /><br />I grew up with Roger Moore, but... I've loved what they did with D. Craig. They brought back a classic film noir'ish vibe with him. <br /><br />Star Wars holds a special place in my heart, despite what Mr. Lucas did to the second trilogy.. and what he forced Ford to do in Indy 4. I have not been this excited for a sequel in so long.<br /><br />The Star Trek reboot is GOOD. It captures the attitude of Kirk/Spock, keeps it a little campy, but makes it a little more "actiony" but also throws just enough twists to make things new and exciting.<br /><br />Potter was a great rendition, and I thought it did justice to the books, but it's a closed series.<br /><br />And Lord of the Rings was was the best and worst it could possibly be, in my opinion.Response by Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS made Apr 19 at 2015 8:49 PM2015-04-19T20:49:45-04:002015-04-19T20:49:45-04:00PO3 Steven Sherrill602928<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Voted Star Wars, but 007 is a close second. Star Wars takes its influence from the old Japanese films along with old westerns. It also entails grand adventure on an epic scale. <br />Bond is full of action, intrigue, beautiful women, and of Course the gadgets. <br />The two are both excellent, but for different reasons. I enjoy both series, but I enjoy Star Wars more.Response by PO3 Steven Sherrill made Apr 19 at 2015 8:53 PM2015-04-19T20:53:13-04:002015-04-19T20:53:13-04:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member603109<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This poll is rather unfair. I would pick all of these excluding Harry Potter. Harry Potter doesn't put hair on your chest the way the rest of them (were meant to) do. However since I have to pick it would be Star Wars, with James bond being a close second, if not equal.<br /><br />Why Star Wars is awesome: Sci-fi with high fantasy elements (the Force), and plenty of action. It's a Space version of WWII if say Nazi Germany was to win, and we all create an insurgency to eventually defeat it. Plus the compelling story of Anakin's fall to the Dark Side, and how his son Luke becomes his salvation. Also, who doesn't want a light saber, and a Yoda?<br /><br />Why James Bond is Awesome: He's a fearless, dangerous sex machine who risks all for Queen and Country. Always places the mission first, even when he's sipping a dry martini (shaken, not stirred) at the casino. He gets unlimited ammunition, women, money, sex, cars, and high tech toys. All of which he senselessly and generously expends to his advantage, and what's great about it is he don't give a ****.<br /><br />As for the rest LOTR is great, though I'm not too into it. Never been a Trekkie. Not touching Harry Potter, but I guess wizards are pretty cool.<br /><br />You should of added Indian Jones. I would of been all over that!Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 19 at 2015 10:28 PM2015-04-19T22:28:58-04:002015-04-19T22:28:58-04:00SSgt Private RallyPoint Member603131<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Pfft.

It shows humans at their best, working together regardless of race, religion, sex, or anything else. It was the first TV show to depict Black people working on equal terms with Whites. The first to show an interracial kiss between a Black woman and a White man. It was also the first to have women and Black people in positions of power and authority. Finally it was not uncommon to See minorities and women play people at the top of their profession. All these are carried over into the movies.Response by SGT Steve Oakes made Apr 20 at 2015 6:16 AM2015-04-20T06:16:13-04:002015-04-20T06:16:13-04:00SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member604421<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My wife and I are Trekkies, but somehow my three girls are all Star Wars nuts.

It paved the way and set the bar for special effects and epic story telling. That's why my vote went to it but all of them are great and I have a special affection for LOTR/Hobbit as well as I feel that franchise is the best fantasy franchise that had been so long in the coming to be done right. I have a little heartache with Peter Jackson and how far from the original Hobbit book that he diverged.Response by SGT James Hunsinger made May 4 at 2015 12:17 PM2015-05-04T12:17:56-04:002015-05-04T12:17:56-04:00SSG(P) Private RallyPoint Member646922<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>All of them.

While certain 007 films do contain elements of sci-fi (especially "Moonraker"), it's the most realistic series of the bunch and therefore the easiest for me to relate to personally; while I don't own a light saber or phaser nor do I possess magical powers, I most certainly can and do (1) drink vodka martinis, "shaken, not stirred," (2) own and fire a Walther PPK 7.65mm (.32 ACP), and (3) travel around the world on official business. :-)Response by Capt Christian D.

They are all spectacular in their own way. I was a Star Trek fan first due to my age. I was ten when Star Wars came out. Wow!!!! I seen it ten times within a month, and have of course followed it since. I read Lord of the Rings in 7th grade. Big fan. When the recent movie franchise for the two stories came out, it was worth the years of wIting to see it come to life with the technology of today's movies. Bond was always a kick ass loner. Unique to himself. So, I can't choose, can't vote. Harry Potter was okay, but was for a younger generation by time I caught on to it.Response by SPC Jeffrey Bly made Jul 13 at 2015 8:42 PM2015-07-13T20:42:04-04:002015-07-13T20:42:04-04:00PFC Nick Kramer812633<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Well there's a few of them that are up there in my opinion. The first one has to be Star Wars , with episodes 4,5&6 being the best. Then there is lotr, or lord of the rings for those who don't know what lotr means. Then lastly marvels avengers including all the movies that are intertwined with it. I. E Captain America,Thor, Iron man. Not only because these movies are my 4 yo son's favorite, but because they are ba. So there you have it. My opinion of the best movie franchises. There's definitely a few more that I could post about( like Transformers and several others but I'll save that for another day. Great topic rally point! Thanks for letting me post my opinions( even if anyone could care less) but it makes me feel like I'm socializing a little bit. Which is something I don't do very often. In person or on the crazy world of the Internet. Have a blessed day all. And God speed!Response by PFC Nick Kramer made Jul 13 at 2015 9:00 PM2015-07-13T21:00:13-04:002015-07-13T21:00:13-04:00SPC Candace Leach812697<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Wish I can vote for both Star Wars and Star Trek since they are my top favorite movie franchise.Response by SPC Candace Leach made Jul 13 at 2015 9:33 PM2015-07-13T21:33:31-04:002015-07-13T21:33:31-04:00SPC Robert Smart1206757<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I voted Star Wars even though this is a loaded question. For the film franchise the original trilogy set the standard for sci films. While I am a fan of Star Trek also the TV show is what that franchise is about. Although the Next Generation and new movies are very good. James Bond was another favorite and as said before me on the thread it has been going on for quite some time and I think has lost some of the mystery it used to have. Harry potter and Tolkien again while both great movies should be taken in book form to get the whole story.Response by SPC Robert Smart made Dec 31 at 2015 1:30 AM2015-12-31T01:30:19-05:002015-12-31T01:30:19-05:002015-04-19T17:41:13-04:00
