The reason why lord of the rings is the best movie is... many many many nerds watch it over and over over. They then get together with other nerds and decide this uber nerdy movie is the best movie. It is, in fact, NOT the best movie.
The best way to grill a steak is... heat your coals, let them burn out until they glow red, throw your ribeye on that puppy, flip after 4 minutes, and take it off four minutes later. Perfection.
