Star Wars and Lord of the Rings are undoubtedly the greatest examples of fictional wars in cinema, but if it were me, I'd switch their placements. Why? Star Wars is essentially a family drama, an opera, at its core, with the backdrop of an ongoing war to move the plot and characters forward, whereas the entirety of Lord of the Rings is the buildup and realization of a massive conflict between good and evil. It's a looming and all-encompassing threat from the very beginning, which culminates in a truly fleshed-out war that covers the majority of the final two films, while Star Wars only features several battles, largely serving as a means to progress the central family conflict, in a war that has lasted years, much of which is off-screen. But, that's just my opinion. I love both.

+Pepitobenito I couldn't agree more. I think LOTR is the ultimate story of good vs. evil. It has so many themes and different angles all wrapped up in one beautiful tale. And the battle scenes in LOTR are of such an incredible scale. It shows the true horrors and bravery that were displayed in medieval warfare.

To be fair, they were referring to the wars in its entirety. Not the 'top 10 fictional war movies'. Most consider a cross-galaxy war between billions (if not trillions) of individuals to be slightly better than a war across a single continent. If you include how the war was represented in the other forms of media (books, graphic novels, even video games) then it only continues to grow. In terms of the actual movies, I'd definitely have to say Lord of the Rings wins out in terms of actual carnage, but in the wars represented (and most other terms being represented, but not quite shown in the movies), I'd have to give the medal to Starwars.

Erikon14 Not disagreeing that the overarching conflict in Star Wars is on a much, much grander scale, especially when taking the EU into consideration, but this is a top 10 fictional wars in movies list, which I take to mean the representation of these conflicts directly on screen, not backstory.

@wooow35

Pepitobenito I maintain this. They are not speaking of fictional battles. They are still speaking of wars on a complete scale. Even then, the aspects of the war represented in the movie is more than a little bigger than the other represented aspects in the lord of the rings. As I said, battle wise lord of the rings is better. But lord of the rings sorta seems more like a 12 year old came up with his dream fantasy war, and then sent it off to a great writer to expand on it. It's really nice in most all ways, but it really sorta lacks depth to me. Seems alot like what I would come up with those lego castle sets from a decade ago. At the same time, that same thing could be said about starwars, but it still has a certain sense of originality, in a few more ways.

I feel like number one should go to LoTR, considering it's depiction of war was so heavily inspired by J.R.R Tolkien's first hand experience in World War 1, and is represented so well in the film adaptations.

All the stormtroopers miss and die in a cheesy manner with no blood or gore; causes sense of a lack of desperation and intensity. Whereas in lotr there are amazing fight scenes and spectacular deaths with character losses that make you feel the pain of the war; the worst that happens in star wars is luke loses his hand. The scale isnt as impressive as lotr either; i bet when you saw the camera pan out over 6000 riders as theoden concluded his speech it left you breathless. give it up WatchMojo!

I personally prefer The Lord of the Rings even though I grew up with both Star Wars trilogys. As great as both the more political and eventually full scale Clone Wars were (even though nobody likes them) and the darker and more character driven rebelion war against the empire were, the scale of The Lord of the Rings wars are just immense. The sheer amounts of orcs, the amazing battles themselves, the different races fighting against and with each other and the consequences of the actions of the peoples of middle earth, just makes the whole story epic. I love both but if I had to choose one, I'd pick Lord of the Rings. (Please don't hate me Star Wars fans). Also (although its not as grandios, gritty or heavy as LOTR) I have so far really liked the Hobbit films that are fun lighter hearted films. From what I've heard though, the final film is going to be the best as the battle of five armies is apparently (from quotes from the creators) more ambitious and amazing as any of the other battles in the LOTR films which gets me very excited. Also, the parts with Thorin, the meeting of the races, Dol Gul Dor and Smaug I am very much looking forward to! :) Also also, I can't wait for Star Wars Episode VII. GOD I AM SUCH A NERD! xD

Yes! You are right; if the Battle of the Five Armies is like how the book suggests, it will undoubtedly be the best out of the Hobbit trilogy!

Shit will get crazy there at the Lonely Mountain, still the fact that Legolas was in The Desolation of Smaug still bothers me, same as creating Tauriel. Still both were awesome but I still wanted something not that far from the book. Plus, really Kili getting shot with a Morgul arrow? Come on its nearly the same as Frodo getting stabed by the Witch King. Hoping he has a book like death, awesome as hell I hope...

$poilerDude I can understand some fans not liking the changes from the book, but apparently the extended cut of DoS is much longer and has more parts from the book in it (dunno why they weren't in there in the first place). And about Kili, I think that may affect him in BotFA and he dies in the battle due to the arrow. I also think that Tauriel will die too to make it more emotional. I actually didn't mind the elf, dwarf love story, I thought it was a nice refresher during the Smaug parts to go back to them and it never felt cheesy to me. Also I hope this is the best one of the three. Both of the first I really enjoyed and actually after low expectations going into AUJ and being surprised by it immensely, I went into DoS with high expectations and didn't think it was as good in many areas. But after watching it again, it seemed better. Both the first 2 had flaws but I have a feeling that some of those flaws will be cleared up in the third film! Can't wait! :D

Nerds rule, normals drool!

This is a touch one because the list can goes on and on .

War of the ring better be #1. Battle of the five armies (first move by sauron), skirmish at Amon hen, slaughter of the Uruk-hai at the borders of fangorn, Attack of the wolves of isengard, battle of helms deep, siege of osgiliath, battle of pelenor fields, battle at the black gate are superior to whatever you pit the lotr against. I didn't include the mines of Moria because it wasn't directly initiated by sauron or saruman.

1) Clone Wars 2) Trade federation war 3) Great Galactic War 4) Galactic Civil War 5) Every other war in Star Wars.

A list with Starship Troopers is always a good list! :)

I love it when my 2 favorite franchises top the list!

The next one should be on TV wars. I think number one should go to the last great time war in doctor who.

Lord of the rings would be first!

I absolutely love Terminator 2. Even that little scene where T100 says "There's one more chip", just that bit, makes my throat tighten.

Agreeing with lots of comments. LotR should be #1. Just so many epic battles and ground breaking in how they were pulled off from a movie making stand point. Helm's Deep, Pelennor Fields, Isengard, The Black Gate... they all give me chills. They were shot to give you the full scope of the battle. I'll say that Star Wars is a solid second slot though. :)

Thank you for not adding twilight! 👍

Also FYI Storm Troopers are the best shots in the galaxy! Look it up their is a big thing about it. Everytime Stormtroopers suck and can't hit anything is all part off the plan. The Deathstar "They let us go" "The tracker is in place" the Cloud city they were under orders not to harm Luke but on Hoth and when they took Lea's ship at the start of IV no problems. Quick and efficient NEARLY everytime they lose it was according to plan.
