One does not simply pick their favourite Lord of the Rings movie…
Honestly it gets marathoned with the extended editions everytime I sit for a watch. It’s all one book, so why not one big 12 hour movie? Lol
It’s three books?
Well it’s a little complicated. Tolkien wrote it as one novel, which contained 6 books + appendices. But the publisher didn’t want to publish a 1200 page (iirc) book, so they made him divide it into 3 volumes, each containing 2 books, and then they titled them to be what we know them as.
Fun fact, the only title he wasn’t happy with was The Return of the King, because it gave away what happens in the book.
I agree. It’s like the Godfather. Once you press play the entire story is going to be on, so sit down.
One movie with a few intermissions (for the faint hearted).
I’m partial to The Two Towers because Helms Deep is amazing and it blew my 9 year old mind when I saw it in theaters. But they’re all fantastic movies.
Yeah I never really remember where the movies start or end. It’s really a part 1, part 2, part 3 thing.
Unironically, I refuse to see them as individuals. If they told self contained stories it would be okay to choose, but as a whole story it doesn’t make sense to pick
Tried to think of a “favorite” and just can’t. They all blew my little mind in equivalent ways. Fellowship is such an amazing start to the trilogy. Towers has Helms Deep and everything else. And Return is a mind blowing finale. They’re all so goooood.
I have been shamed for my views.
That is also low quality fish
Listen man I actually thought RoP was decent but God damn that’s very incorrect.
There’s two of us!
,\s for those who think this wasn’t sarcasm
