This, I can't sit though one of these movies, they're too boring.

There's a lot to love about these movies.

The book sucked. literally half of it was prosaic descriptions of mountainside.

Its crazy how people born after 2000 are able to post here

The only people who don't like these movies are subhumans who identify with the orcs.

Ok, why don't you tell me what's so good about them?

I was about to start a list, but it's literally almost everything

They're just really good movies. They were the first epic films many people of this generation saw.

oh, except gollum, I think he's annoying and boring as a character

>I just don't get the hype for Lord of the Rings
>Its just a boring Game of Thrones.
>Just look at the CGI!
>Are Sam and Frodo gay?

I'm getting to old for this shit.

Literally everything.
The only thing I kinda dislike is CG Gollum, imho Serkis with makeup wouldve way more convincing.

Imagine being such a faggot that you dont enjoy prosaic descriptions of mountainsides. Perhaps harry potter is more up your alley.

>my diagon alley

Try Game of Thrones. It's like Lord of the Rings but for adults.

Even that dwarf guy?

I masturbated to this as a teen way too many times, it was a challenge considering I only had it on VHS.

the comic relief part gets too much here and there, especially in the extended editions, but yea, even the dwarf

If you have children, I hope someone kills them

Ill give a (you) just to guarantee no more retards fall for this shitty bait

Unironically this

if you`re white and not a soyboy cuck then you`d resonate with this story of unity and brotherhood and despite all odds and feelings of miseary and all hope being lost, fighting together against one common enemy that seeks to invade and destroy everything in its path
also great fucking cgi and visuals for its time
great music that provides best moments of /comfyness/ and /feels/
decent storytelling captured in a visual medium albeit some errors here and there
all in all great fucking trilogy the likes of which will never be seen again with such careful planning that took place years in advance

GOT has garbage casting and screenplay that shits on the source material

More like its lord of the rings for man children and feminists

its like you beg to be made fun of

sorry, i see you`re agitated for missing your dose of soylent today

Not sure why i laughed at this

t.numale increasingly getting butthurt
keep it coming user

What is your go to meal when watching these consecutively?

El goblino

Not only was it an adaptation with enormous scope of the most seminal fantasy work of the modern age.
But its production was also a real life miracle that has never happened before, and will never repeat.
Hollywood simply is not allowed anymore to take such a huge risk, so I doubt we will ever see anything like that again.

Seriously I would much rather watch the theatrical edition of Return of the King.

Scenes like this just show the early signs of Hackson.

im not the one getting butthurt
but i`ll play along with the shitposts since you think you`re winning or something
kek

I watch all of the extended versions at least once a year. gives me feels to be desu

It's the best adaptation anything Tolkien wrote is going to get.
It still fails in many respects, but the effort put into the film is amazing and it keeps the spirit of Lord of the Rings well.

I dont think milleniels 'get' the movie since they've grown up watching capeshit and game of thrones.

Pretty much this. First grand scale epic fantasy on screen with proper visuals.

None, doing "le epic lotr marathon" is the most stupid way to watch these movies.

Why do soyboys get so triggered when somebody criticizes shit flicks like the LOTR flicks?

Leave soypa

maybe the first 4 seasons

They think liking LOTR isn't juvenile and that watching a "brotherhood" of fictional creatures makes them real men.

This! One doesn't simply not feel inspired and in awe when listening to this.

t. not white

I never read the books prior to watching the movies, and those fucking eagles were like a kick in the nut at the end of the trilogy.

So yea, I liked watching it, but the ending totally obliterated any rewatch value or interest in reading the books for more content.

shut the up

two logs of shit with fish and cheese? getting better and better

also stop pretending you eat any of this, when the file names are Sup Forums

absolute kino and soyboy repelant
watching it will make hairs grow on your chest

As much as I love Tolkien you can't pretend he's "too well written for plebs." Critics and intellectuals of his time also derided him for having self indulgent writing that went nowhere, and flat prose. His world building is great, but his writing is not his strong suite. Arguably only the Hobbit, a children's book, is actually decently written and has a story that can stand on its own without the rest of the middle earth mythos.

Is this a deleted scene or something? I dont remember it at all

There's something weird about this trilogy I've found. It seems like it's almost impossible to get people who missed the boat on it to enjoy it. I know people who watched them when they got out and they love them with a passion. But whenever I try to get someone who didn't bother with LOTR back then to watch the films, they always get bored or disappointed.
It feels like you had to be part of that feeling of watching them in the cinema each Christmas and waiting a full year anticipating the next one.

They're well made films with a good story and interesting characters, if a person likes fantasy he'll like these films whether he seen them 20 years ago or not.

Because back then it looked extraordinary. Nowadays with four capeshit movies a year it has nothing new to offer.

If you dont at least enjoy the lotr trilogy you're probably devoid of a soul

The hobbit is best girl

Yes that's the "plebs don't get it" part
Because the movies are genuinely good
They're just not the instant gratification ADHD shit plebs expect

Oh I agree with you, that's why I don't understand how some people can't get into them even though they like fantasy. People my age who never watched them just can't be arsed to try.

That might be the case for people who were born after they came out. But then I have an 8-year-old nephew who loves Star Wars and has no problem watching the older ones, so it's not like graphics are always so important.

El Atrocidad...

I didn't say that graphics are the most important part, I said LOTR movies have nothing else to offer than stunning visuals, and with those visuals not being stunning anymore, it really doesn't have anything left to offer. It's pretty, but the events portrayed are meh...

I'm over 30 years old and I have zero interest in watching any of it again.

People born after 2000 are not millennials, you humongous retard.

i never watched them when they released, and i watched them maybe a year ago and it was so hype i watched all the extended editions, shit was SO cash

idk how a person can claim to like fantasy and not enjoy LOTR

>idk how a person can claim to like fantasy and not enjoy LOTR
underages for whom fantasy begins with harry potter and ends with capeshit

fucking WOMEN am I right? Stay the fuck out of my high class fantasy.

>Howe and Strauss define the Millennial cohort as consisting of individuals born between 1982 and 2004. Other proposed dates for Millennials: According to Iconoclast, a consumer research firm, the first Millennials were born in 1978.

It's essentially a loving paen to white identity and history, so yeah for people who are not white like you it won't really resonate that much.

It's in the extended edition.

You need to watch the Hobbit trilogy first, then you'll get it.

is this a restaurant?

...

imagine being this guy

no some nerd made these

Okay, for you functional illiterates, I explain it in more detail:

LOTR relied too heavily on visuals delivering the story, it was too much eye candy. Now that eye candy isn't eye candy anymore, but pretty normal stuff, so the events portrayed are suddenly a lot more dull than they were when the movies were new. Every story on screen that is relying too heavily on visuals - visuals that will eventually be surpassed in scale and lifelikeness - will eventually have the same fate, they will become less relevant with age and will lose all their value in less than two decades.

truly an embarrassing post

>an embarrassing fact
FTFY

the love for this trilogy mostly comes from ppl who rode the hype train at release and have never given it a second thought since

what a pathetic post

I really feel sorry for you, user

Your tears are delicious. The truth hurts, doesn't it?

>this is what nolan has done to a generation of movie watchers

>your tears are delicious

The movies are good, but not as good as the books
