A few words on what I meant by "collaboration": the epic often comprises a team effort which goes beyond the individual: Star Wars (1977) for example, or the already-said The Birth of a Nation (1915).

I think the best example of a film which transcends the epic while also working brilliantly on an individual level is The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003).
