That's easy:

STAR WARS

LORD OF THE RINGS


Why, you ask?
Well, with Star Wars, it's because four of the six movies are such
utter garbage that it makes me want to never see the first two (which
were kind of entertaining--in a mindless sort of way) ever again.
With LOTR, they were just way too overhyped as some kind of millennial
event for cinema. The films weren't as bad as the Star Wars films (or
the Harry Potter films), but they weren't good enough to deserve all
the hype and attention they got. Part 2, in particular, seemed totally
superfluous. They don't do anything in it that couldn't have been
handled in a few scenes at the end of Part 1 or the beginning of Part
3 or handled with some onscreen text or a narrator's description or
something. And the Best Picture Oscar for the third film was just a
blatant reward for an astounding commercial achievement.
