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

    Last year. If you’re into nonstop action, then yes, they’re probably not for you.

        And here I’d call most of these over rated 😉. The Shining in particular I found incredibly boring and barely creepy or unsettling.

        There are various reasons that both LOTR and many of your favorites remain so popular but a big one (other than nostalgia) is that they were ground breaking at the time of release. Now, they seem tropey and what have you, but that’s because everyone based their subsequent movies/books/etc on those originals, and then improved upon them.
