Before you get mad at me, when was the last time you watched it?

  • Dialogue is mediocre
  • story left me indifferent
  • characters are one dimensional
  • there are no surprises
  • the world is cool tho
  • and my god are they crying a lot while carrying that MF to that Volcano 🌋

The best thing I can say about this movie trilogy is that it is kinda comfy

    My family watches it every year

    -the dialog is pretty iconic

    -story is simple, it’s fine though

    -the characters are pretty simple, but they are still interesting in their own way imo

    -the ending to return of the king does undeniably drag

    Honestly I think it’s a pretty polarizing film series. It takes some huge gambles in including a lot of pretty deep lore and details that most people probably don’t care about. Most people i know who’ve seen it say they either love it or found it boring. I’ve never met someone who said the series is “pretty good”.

    I will say, the lack of reliance on plot twists makes it more rewatchable. That and the absolutely beautiful sets and costumes. In today’s age of CGI and now AI, we will never see the like of it again. EDIT: How could I forget the soundtrack?
