The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy is the only movie that even comes close to Star Wars in terms of epicness and amazement. After The Lord of the Rings Trilogy is the best movies ever made. Even if you didn't like Star Wars you have to watch The Lord of the Rings movies. There many similarities between Star Wars Lord of the Rings, which I can't describe without spoiling the plot.

Note: The reviews for the Lord of the Rings movies were some of our earlier reviews so they are not near as detailed as our more recent reviews.


The Matrix Trilogy
Warning The Matrix Trilogy is rated "R" but the first Matrix movie is clean except for some profanity so if you can watch a censored verison that would probably be best.
The Matrix also has many similarities and was definitely influenced by Star Wars in that the main character of the movie ,Neo, is thought to be "The Chosen One". The first Matrix was a truly amazing movie and had the most "WOW!" factor since Star Wars. The action scenes in The Matrix are some of the most impressive ever in a movie. The sequels were not near as good the original but are worth checking out if you liked the first one. If you have seen The Matrix movies please tell us because we have not found any Matrix fans on blogger.

Indiana Jones Trilogy
Indiana Jones the character is very similar to that of Han Solo since they are both played by Harrison Ford, the greatest actor to ever live, it is no surprise. The Indiana Jones movies are the most action packed movies ever made. If you like Han Solo you have to like Indiana Jones.

Tron: Legacy
Tron: Legacy is also similar to The Matrix and is heavily influenced by it. But the amazing "Light Disc" fight scenes are very similar to that of Star Wars' Lightsaber duels. And the overall sci-fi adventure element is also like Star Wars.

Star Trek
We are not "Trekkies" but we have seen some the TV series, we haven't seen any of the other Star Trek movies. Star Trek is not known for great and exciting action scenes but the recent Star Trek changed that with an action packed sci-fi adventure that is more like Star Wars than classic Star Trek. Even if you didn't like the old Star Trek movies and TV series you should like this movie.

Have you seen any of these movies? Did you like them? Do you plan on seeing them after reading this? Please comment and let us know. Please check back tomorrow for more Star Wars.

  1. I LOVE a lot of the movies on here. Lord of the Rings is my second favorite movie series after Star Wars and I also really like Indiana Jones and the Star Trek film(I'm planning on watching the old t.v series).
    I have yet to see The Matrix and Tron: Legacy but I'm definitely going to in the near future; I've heard a lot of good things about those movies.

  4. @Shena Tokala: Awesome! I really didn't like the old 60s Star Trek series, it was a little werid and some times cheesy but the ones in the 90s are good. Especailly Next Generation and Voyager. And another great sci-fi TV series is Doctor Who. After season 4 it has been one of favorite TV series.

    @Aalya Rain: Yes, The Lord of the Rings films are amazing. Easily the best movies since Star Wars. They are really long movies. All three of the movies are around 3 hours long but it is well worth the leagth. If you have any questions please ask. :)

  5. I really, REALLY want to see Tron Legacy and Matrix looks interesting as well. I would also like to see the Lord of the Rings series but we probably won't get around to them for a little while still.

  6. @Jamie: Other than Star Wars there is not a movie series that I recommend more than Lord of the Rings and then The Matrix after that. Tron: Legacy is very good but not in the realm of greatness as Lord of the Rings and The Matrix.
