Seriously? LOTR and Alien/s/³ and First Class/Days of Future Past/Logan. All superior Trilogies.
LOTR is obviously THE trilogy....but it's a book. Aliens is mad disjointed and clearly made up. X men isn't even linked (Wolverine aint even in First Class outside of the bar).
The OT is about a boy that wants to be a Jedi, then kisses his sister, then watches his sister actually fall in love with his mate ( and they blow up two super bases in the same timeline). Insert kinda random Emperor baddie ala sequel trilogy but not quite as bad.
The OT is quite literally the story of one boy turned to the darkside, planned out and realised. However shit it may be, editing, acting, bad dialog, the prequels are undeniably the most linked story's in the Skywalker saga, by so many miles.
OT was done off the cuff, sequels were done off the cuff. George had a beginning, middle and end in the prequels.
