Which trilogies do/will you prefer: Matrix or Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy
While III has yet to come out, I think we all know the story.
Basically, out of two trilogies that left people somewhat disappointed, which do you think is better? Or if you think they BOTH stink vote for that option, just defend why you think one stinks more than the other.

The Matrix Trilogy. At least the Matrix films aspired to something rather than pandering to it's audience, like I feel the Prequel Trilogy has done so far.

Didn't like The Phantom Menace. But enjoyed Attack of the Clones. Sure, there were some laughably bad parts. But I must admit that, as a whole, it was a fulfilling Star Wars story. Hopefully Episode 3 progresses just as Episode 2 did from Episode 1.
The Matrix, on the other hand, was fatally wounded by Revolutions. Really liked the first two. But I just can't watch them again without being reminded of how bad the 3rd one was. It's a shame, really.
So, though neither set of films is flattering, I'm going to have to say Star Wars.

I quite enjoyed the Matrix trilogy. All three of them. I don't have the dying lvoe for these flicks, but they're all damn entertaining, Revolutions included.
Star Wars suffers cause I hate Phantom Menace. Just hate it. I can't stand watching the thing. I loved AOTC, but no matter how good Episode 3 is, TPM will always be a major sore spot.
So Matrix wins.

Loved the first two Matrices and thought that Revolutions was mediocre.
Thought Menace was mediocre but really liked Clones. Hopefully Star Wars will finish strong so that I won't feel bad about a tie.
Right now though, the winner is Matrix.
