Customer Reviews Summary

The LOTR Trilogy is a franchise that I will recommend to anyone until the day I die and I leave it in my will that all my descendants have to watch and read this series because there is literally nothing that compares to it. Tolkien and his world walked so every other fantasy franchise could run. I would recommend this to any naysayers, anyone who "hates" fantasy, anyone who balks the the time frame for both theatrical and extended releases. You could convert anyone to this franchise. As a millennial my formative years were occuring when these movies first released and it is partly in thanks to Tolkien that I am the person I am today. He helped give birth to my imagination, and filled it with all the fantastical things I could dream of while also showing me that there is dark and evil out there as well and how to distinguish between the two. It taught me nuance and that things are not black and white. It made me fall in love with flawed characters and realize that no one is perfect, even heroes. Characters you start off hating you'll love by the end, and you will come out a changed person.Do not let the run time stop you, it seems daunting but when you are experiencing it the time flies in because you get absolutely sucked in and emotionally invested in every characters stories. You will be broken and battered by the end of it, but in the best way possible. First time watch, theatrical release first, and then the extended editions every time after that. In peter Jackson's own words "the theatrical release is made by Peter Jackson the producer, while the extended is by Peter Jackson the fan"
