The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Prime)

[Cecil Terwilliger]

I’m disappointed it’s just ROTK. It was the least good movie. I’d much prefer to watch fellowship or two towers in theatres again if I had the choice. Gimme some battle of helms deep on the big screen with Dolby atmos. Hook that #### to my veins.

On a positive LOTR note: The Return of the King will be coming back to theaters later this month for the 20th anniversary! And it looks like they're going with the extended edition.

I'm gonna go multiple times.

Me too! The Fellowship is my favourite, but this one is just so spectacular on the big screen. I saw it 3 times when it first came out. Can't wait!

I've mentioned it before, but I found the best way to watch the trilogy is to watch the extended versions as 1 hour episodes, so it doesn't feel like such a time sink. A good 10 hours of TV viewing. I still have to FFWD through the stupid parts of the Battle of the Pelennor Fields though.

We watch the extended ones it in halfs, so we split each one into two nights. It works out well, usually no more than two hours a night. Athough we're huge fans of the trilogy. I could see where that might be a lot for people who really into it.

FOTR is a perfect film. I've undoubtedly seen it more than any other movie (if I had to give it a number, easily 20 times); I'd love to see it in theatres again. Not so much Return of the King, though.
