Ok Kids, Here It Comes: First Star Wars Film In 3D To Hit Theaters in February 2012
"If the American people had ever known the truth about what we (the BCE) have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched." - Poppy Bush, 1992
The only film series that comes close to this in terms of telling one story spread over several films is Lord Of The Rings.
James Bond does not count, as it is not "one story", more like "The continuing adventures of..."
What about Rocky or even (gasp) Star Trek? Hell, LOTR only had 3 films (not counting The Hobbit, if and when that ever gets started), so by that manner of thinking, the epic trilogies of Smokey & the Bandit and Rambo films would meet the standard, as well.

True that Rocky and Star Trek had a buncha films, but my definition here does concern "Epic", and I personally don't think Rocky or Star Trek even come close. They are more like episodes in a TV series.
Just my opinion.

Man, if you haven't, pick up a copy of Bill Shatner's Star Trek Movie Memories. For one thing, it's funny as hell. For another, it really is astounding to see just how strangely those first five films were put together, in some cases almost on the fly. In many ways, the egos involved (along with the jockeying for a position of power) had more to do with how the films turned out than the actual scripts or budgets.
