[QUOTE="Flexor the Mighty!, post: 1219775, member: 1013"] I wonder if the Return of the King will be like seeing Matrix Revolutions again? A sad and dissapointing end to what should have been a great series. Fellowship of the Ring blew my mind. It was amazing and bought both DVD sets and watched it 100+ times. Two Towers was ok, I didn't buy the initial DVD, as the movie wasn't that great. Too much cut, too much Arwyn nonsence added, and horrid writing that destroyed the characters of Theoden & Faramir. It just wasn't that great a movie, at least for me, who expected the PJ to be true to the spirit of the second book and not butcher whatever was needed to make Aragorn seem even greater. I wish I had skipped the theater showing and just waited for the Extended DVD which has a lot of the stuff I thought was left out to the detriment of the story, but which will still have the bad characterization and over Arwynization of the story. With Return of the King...I'll wait until next November and watch the extended DVD edition when my brother buys it. I wouldn't be suprised if the final battle is Arwyn and Frodo fighting Sauron with swords... [/QUOTE]
