Everyone has his or her own tastes, which we should respect.
But for
perspective, I would humbly suggest looking at the lists of best films of the "Noughties". Every one of them has its own axe to grind and own perspective to plug, but overall there's not many that put any of the Jackson films in the top ten. Even those that are heavily-weighted towards fantasy don't put LotR at the top, even when including some part of the trilogy in the top ten. And when the comparison extends to best films of all times, incorporating the legendary films of the twentieth century, Jackson's trilogy just fades.
They might be a top franchise though.
Of course, I could be a smidgeon biased.

I have DVDS of all three movies. But two of them are still wrapped in cellophane.
