Hey I'm a bigger Star was fan than LOTR. But I do rememver that secene where he goes "My name is Mannequin Skywalker. My ****** acting is ruining saga."

Good times.

I think FOTR captured the feel of the book more than the other two and that is why I adore it rather than merely liking it.

I couldn't wait to see the Twin Towers and I walked out of the theater just liking it.

Same goes for the Return of the King, the downplay of Gondor really turned me sour to the movie, although, I do have to admit the added seen with Faramir and the Knights of Gondor charged Osquiliath really was a nice addition.

Yeah, I'll have to agree with Rick James there that the 1st movie was probably the best.

I'm with OE. Both the Twin Towers and ROTK left me with more to be desired.

However, I remember going to the FOTR when it first opened with a bunch of friends. Some dork dressed as Saruman in the front left corner, some geek dressed as Sauron in rear right corner and myself (seated somewhere near the middle of the theatre) were the only three that realized that was the end of the first movie. I was blown away by it.

That sounds like when I was standing in line for tix for The Phantom Menace, my then gf (now wife) met me there. We were surrounded by some good ones lol. Two guys in the parking lot were fighting with lightsabers, and they had it like choreographed. She looked at me and said "What have you gotten me into?". :eek:lol:

i was actually given permission to skip a day of class for one of my film studies classes because the professor was showing a Star Trek movie and knew of my hatred for them. Just about everyone else in the class was so excited about getting to see that movie, no one really cared that I didn't have to show.

I can forgive you for the Star Trek movies, but not Star Wars, esp, the original trilogy.

I will pray for your soul.

Good news - I've always like the Hobbit more than the others. I think I still may have those old tapes of the Hobbit that is all animated.

Personally, I'd rather someone take earlier parts of The Silmarillion and make a movie/trilogy.

i would have loved to have seen the whole movie with just the fight scenes. they were great.:) jackson should have added the sam character stabbing frodo in the back and stealing the ring. i hate frodo. the sam guy was the hero.
