Its very boring, the films are too long and i have originally no idea how some people can have a yearly lotr marathon.
Now this is unpopular.
May god have mercy on your soul. LotR memes was one of the first communities to migrate over.
Well that is an unpopular opinion. I think I might watch the extended editions this weekend now that you brought it up. Cheers!
Dude ROTK has like a whole hour of movie after the final battle lmao at some point it’s ridiculous
The ring is destroyed like halfway through the last book. Tolkien was really into worldbuilding, and he refused to let the ring be the end of it. He had to ramble for another half a book about the fallout afterwards. Aragon getting crowned king, Frodo getting banished to the Shadow Realm, some more politicking in Rivendell, and I think we hear a little bit about the elves too?
I’m also not a fan of the series, FWIW. I read the books. Gave them a fair chance. And fucking hated every minute of it, because I kept expecting it to get better. Because everyone loses their shit over it, so it has to get good eventually, right? I’m a massive fantasy nerd, but LOTR is just a slog.
He did the same thing with The Hobbit. Smaug dies like three quarters of the way through the book, and he doesn’t even get killed by one of the characters that we’ve been following for the entire fucking book. The main characters just sort of wait for him to leave the lair, then rummage through his pile of gold once he’s gone.
*applauds harder
Thank you friend.

I kinda like and hate you at the same time XD
Now that’s an unpopular opinion! I disagree, well done.
Thank you
Man, all the comments in here about the “boring” songs and poetry … do yourself a favour and don’t ever even consider reading works like, oh, I don’t know, practically anything by Goethe, Schiller, or Shakespeare. Or from the other side of the world, the novel A Dream of Red Mansions. Or that Indian epic Mahabharata.
They’re not for short attention spans.
They are beautifully shot, well acted, travel porn movies.
I cant really do anything with nice scenery, my sensory overloadet teenager brain with a 5 seconds attention spann is bored quickly
