Lol...I've seen that before, but someone made a very good point...possible [spoiler] the flying Nazgul wouldn't have let them get that far, and the eagles couldn't have fought them off while carrying people [/spoiler]

Anyway, I love the films...have watched the extended editions a few times already...

The first one is the best out of the trilogy,mainly because it was a spitten image of the book.teh_destroyer

I loved the movies and the books, the books were obviously better than the movies however, but i don't think a better version of the books could have been made into film, they are as good as they possibly could be.

I love the movies, they are some of my favorite. Getting lost in the world of fantasy is an experience that nothing can compensate for. aaaaarrrrggggg

I first read The Hobbit and TheLord of the Rings when I was a kid. I loved them, and I was really psyched some years ago to hear that a live action film trilogy was being made. I thought that technology had caught up to portraying Tolkien's world, and Peter Jackson's films most certainly did. Many scenes were flawlessly done, in that I could not possibly imagine a better view of Middle Earth.

Nicely stated. I feel the same way.

talk about having no life if they can create such awesomeness >_>

The Lord of the Rings does represent a life's work. Tolkien didn't just write a story; he created an insanely detailed world in which they take place. Other fantasy mythologies are pale imitations of it.

Good Movies, but the books are better

Agreed, Some characters and scenes that were in the books were not in the movies. i.e. Tom Bombadil and Goldberry.

I'm going to have to be honest here and say that Lord of The Rings films are just above average at best. They are not Amazing, they are not good. They are just above average. I read the books much before the movies were made. I watched the movies several times, and the more I watched them the more I realized they weren't that epic.EMOEVOLUTION

Funny you should mention these films, I'm currently watching Return Of The King (Extended Edition) and watched the first two over the course of the last few days.

Easily some of the best movies ever made. Pure epic films.

Are you being serious? Just curious...because Tolkien, the author of the books, died in the 1970's...way before Jackson's version of the books came out...only stating that in case you were being serious...if you weren't, then kindly disregard my post, lol.

They seriously bore me. smarb001
