Film Great Movie Trilogies (that aren't actually trilogies)

They are actual trilogies....Man with No Name trilogy and Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, right?

Whilst they have been labelled trilogies, they aren’t conventional trilogies, like the op mentioned.

The other trilogy I put down is known as The Vengeance trilogy but the films aren’t interlinked.
 
Michael Mann Cop Trilogy

Manhunter

Heat

Miami Vice

Twin Peaks trilogy


Twin Peaks Seasons 1-2(Tv series sorry)

Fire Walk With Me

Twin Peaks The Return(Its basically counts as a really long Lynch movie)

Thatcherism/Reaganomics

.They Live

.The Cook The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover

.The Long Good Friday

(Bonus - Ghostbusters 1984)
