I went to see it on Monday. We came an hour early and bought the tickets, so they only cost us $4.75.

It was great, except at then end when they had to tie up all the loose ends. I mean, they give you like HUGE drinks. and its 3 1/3 hours long...shoulda seen my friend run out of the theatre.

[NeoHunter]

I agree. The ending was wayyyyyyy too boring. Sure. You want to tie up some loose ends but at least spare us the crying and tears and goodbyes. I hate those.

If I wanted to see people crying, I'll go and watch Forrest Gump or Titanic.

And I hate Titanic.

Woppee!!! I love the emotional parts. If I liked LOTR for the big battles, I'd go and see Episode II.

Saw it yesterday. ****ing hell.

I'm sure there are words that can adequately describe this film but I'll be ****ed if I can think of them at the moment.

Immense does not do it justice.

[NeoHunter]

So, was your review going to be good or bad?

[01010]

Good. I loved it, I loved every goddamn second of it and I'm already planning to go see it again within this week. If I can get tickets.

The cavalry charge of the Rohirrim, I nearly cried with joy at how well executed it was. Beautiful film.

[mikhael]

Yeah. When the Rohirrim rode across the Field of Pellenor, I had a big grin on my face. When they road against Oliphaunts though, I had tears on my face. It was just so ugly and futile. It punched you in the gut and made you see what they were really facing: the utter annihilation of everything good and right and free in the world, for nothing more than one being's conscienceless ambition.

[Knight Templar]

Just got the video game.

[NeoHunter]

Still waiting for EA's upcoming Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth.

[Dark_4ce]

The only thing equal to the cavalry charge of the Rohirrim is the first battle scene in Braveheart. no scratch that, the cavalry scene in ROTK is better.

[NeoHunter]

Its "Rohan" and not "Rohirrim" isn't it?

[TrashMan]

Rohirim is Rohans cavalry devision.

The battle scenes kick ass...Alltough I was a little dissapointed with the Battle of pelenor.
Great begining, but the end was disspointing. He should have stuck with the book..

As for me, well, I was right there reciting the poems along with the characters under my breath and cheered like a banshee when the Witch King of Angmar got his comeuppance.

And afterwards, I went on to explain to my wife who Manwe and Aule and Mandos and Morgoth and the rest were and why Sauron needed the ring so badly. And my wife who hates this stuff and especially hates me explaining backstory, she loved it all. She especially loved the history and the end of the time of the Elves.

If he films Sillmarilion,Ill be the happiest man on earth!
* thinks of Feanor, Finfe, Turgon, Maedhros, Hurin, Mim, Echtellion, Ellendil, Eanrill, and loads of other charachters*

SAURON: Well..uumm...it's ...
*Eonwe and Manwe arrive. Manwe picks up sauron and gives him a spanking*
MANWE: You've been a bad boy Sauron! Now you're going to Mandos..and without supper!"
SAURON: Noooooooooooooooooooo!

You profane the great work. If it had been funny, that would be one thing, but it wasn't. You will now be sentanced to being an Orc's ***** for all eternity.

[Kazan]

they screwed up the battle of the black gate -- not enough humans there

[an0n]

I'm bored to hell: Someone explain the Morgoth thing(s) to me.

[Singh]

*refuses to stay dead and decides to come back and tease the LOTR fans*

Hahaha! LOTR Isn't good! Sci-fi is the best!! FS3 WILL kick its @ss any day

ok, so im sorely tempted to go watch after the seeing many shots. But am VERY hesitant in doing so, especially considering the fact that I've not seen the previous movies and dont know a clue of what the story is about except that its your standard good vs evil super-hero battle where sad and tragic things happen.

[an0n]

Think of it as watching T3, Revolutions or Return of the Jedi.

While it's a good idea to have seen the previous ones, you'll still get most of it, just not all the little in-jokes and nuances.
