No spoilers please!
For people that have seen the movie I'd like to hear on which spot they would place the prologue for the Desolation of Smaug including An Unexpected Journey and the LOTR trilogy. Example:
1. Fellowship of the Ring
2. An Unexpected Journey
3. The return of the king.
4. Desolation of Smaug
5. The Two Towers

... but in what world would TTT prologue be in 5th place? lol
For the four that I have seen I'd say:
1. The Two Towers
2. An Unexpected Journey
3. The Fellowship of the Ring
4. The Return of the King
All of them are fantastic, so I guess it doesn't matter to me where DOS fits in.
The Grey Pilgrim, they once called me. Three hundred lives of men I walked this earth, and now I have no time...

I could easily see DOS's prologue coming in near the top, but I also haven't seen it. Among the four I have seen, I'd say:
1. The Two Towers (a beautiful fight sequence with emotional heft and that sterling shot of the far-off fire falling beneath the earth)
2. The Fellowship of the Ring (it does a lot of heavy lifting in a very brief span of time, and it does it with a telling melancholy)
3. An Unexpected Party (its editing jars a little, but it plunges us into Bilbo's story wonderfully, and the way it prefigures Rings is quite lovely)
4. Return of the King (it supplies good back story for Smeagol but really doesn't have the heft or finesse of some of the other prologues; however, I must admire the pluckiness of beginning an epic film with a close-up of a worm)
