The age old debate

All I know is theatrical fellowship is the best by far

Why do you have the extended versions lower? I think they’re better.

extended fellowship doesn't add much great scenes aside from a few early on. for two towers it is undeniably better than the theatrical, which i reflected in my ranking. for return, it made the whole ending sequence far longer than it needed to be and the scenes are very obviously mixed in so it doesn't feel like a cohesive experience the way the two towers flashback extended scenes were organically woven in.

Same. I can watch FotR (preferably theatrical version) and feel perfectly content not to watch the other 2. For me the uniqueness is in the adventure, the battles are just like every other fantasy/medieval battles, and the other two movies are riddled with them

its an unpopular opinion these days for a reason my young Zoomer apprentice

Fellowship is so fucking kino. Remember loving it I’m theaters (was in 9th grade). The summer camp I went to had a Lord of the Rings themed scavenger hunt that was awesome. It was in the smoky mountains, had people dressed as orgs, people dressed as the riders on horses. Two Towers was great in theaters, saw it with the same group of friends. RotK didn’t see in theaters, moved away and saw it on dvd, got bored after while.

Fellowship
return=towers
All kino

I think it depends which one you watch first. Only one I saw in theaters was the Two Towers and that is my favorite

If I had to pick one maybe Fellowship, but I honestly I like them all. All had great moments.

>preferring the overdrawn out battles and quips to the feeling of high adventure and peak comfy shirekino
you're the freakin' zoomer man

>Mother's aren't jews
Technically not Jews according to Jewish law.

They all do different things well. Fellowship is the closest to the book it was based on. Two Towers, I think, has the best music. ROTK has arguably the best acting and the set designs are awesome, or at least Minas Tirith is.

>want to rewatch two towers/return of the king
>remember the sideplot of gollum corrupting frodo against sam
yeah this is why i stick to fellowship only.

>dooood WWE wrestler orc who kills Sean Bean and who wasn't in any of the books is hella fuckin based and badass ^_^ fellowship iz da bestest

Are you actually retarded or just pretending really well?

Fellowship is probably the best overall movie but we can all agree right that the best moment of the series has to be the ride of the Rohirrim

I'm not sure what I hate more: this, or what the movies did to Faramir.

Fellowship is such a comfy movie
It has everything

>dood making gimli a comic relief character is hella based ahaha funny dwarf! haha epic bro he drinks a lot but gets beaten by elf while funny music plays lololo

according to Reform Judaism they are both considered Jewish even for just having a Jew dad

fellowsip is literally the best blockbuster of all time. the score, the visuals, even the CGI has held up decently well for a movie from almost 20 years ago. The acting is solid, above average for a big blockbuster movie, too, and that comfy atmosphere.

reform jews are the jewish version of like unitarians, theyre not really jewish at all.

Sean renounced his judaism and is a christian

I'll never forgive the shitty fucking Hobbit movies for crapping all over Galadriel and how cool her "YOU SHALL HAVE A QUEEN" scene was.

That shot of their silhouettes in the shire, second row middle column, is my favourite of the whole series.

you can't cancel your DNA and genes

yeah that shit is art

Two Towers

Based without equal

fucking based

It's really hard to rank them because they all are parts of one epic whole.

However, FOTR does have a particular charm to it that the other two don't. Something about the start of a great adventure and the fellowship itself. That is the only edge it has, in my opinion.

Holy based

Based.

the locations are also better. The shire, the wilderness around the hill where they fight the nazgul, Rivendell, Moria, Lothlorien. Very mystical and pretty locations and the next two movies are mostly on random plains and cities and fortresses, though Fangorn is kino.

Also the fellowship is a group of men setting out on a task together which is just inherently more comfy than the later stuff where theyre all separated and shit is fucked up. Sam and Frodo and gollum's entire story is especially depressing.

Who cares they're all good and I wouldn't want one without the others

Its funny, I love the movies so much yet I always skip the Frodo, Sam and Gollum sections, which I think a lot of others do as well. So I'ts one of my favourite movies yet I probably skip nearly half of it.

i dont skip them but jesus they drag on. I know it's supposed to be like that, in the book too, because you're supposed to feel how isolated and despairing they are, the long, hard struggle or whatever, but it's not fun to watch or read.

Any scene without gollum

quads of truth

treacherously based

mi nigga

On the other hand, Minas Tirith is incredible. My very favorite location in the trilogy. Everybody wants to live in the Shire, but I personally want to live here.

You just watched them for the first time?

this

it is definitely breathtaking, I think the reason it didn't come to mind is that it exists against this giant plain bordered by Mordor. It isn't like a secret little enclosed location like most of the ones in Fellowship, which I think help to lend it that air of mythical mystery.

Probably FOTR, yet the other two aren't far behind. Still amazes me how well the movies aged. I watch them about once a year, usually around christmas, and I'm always surprised that I don't get bored with them. I suspect they'd still have aged well in 25 years from now. It's like Alien, doesn't get old.

Hard truth. Nobody watches just one. For me its all 3 extended versions. Literally a perfect film for being almost 13 hours

I started to take for granted the movies after the first, but GOT made me realize how awesome Helm's Deep was.
