Watched the special LOTR TRIPLE FEATURE ( [img]graemlins/showoff.gif[/img] all 3 films in 1 row with just 15 min. breaks between!) in a local cinema yesterday. Ouch, my a$$ and legs still hurt! But it was very cool to see the whole story on one day.

I have to say that I like the first of the three parts most. IMO, it's the closest to the book (just dropped some parts of the book but not so much "Holywood-elements" added like in film 2 and 3 (for instance Aragorns fight and fall with the Warg(s); Faramir takes the hobbits to Minas Tirith just to give Sam the chance to heroically save Frodo from the Nazgūl; Legolas' "special battle-moves")). The HUGE battles in part 2 and 3 are, of course, pretty amazing. But I can't get rid of the impression that there's a bit too much comedy in them (Gimli becomes the 'clown' of the show ).

As I said, my opinion, no offence meant. [img]smile.gif[/img]
