Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers: Extended Extended Edition

    Well they are back in theaters, which is a good thing because that is the best place to watch movies anyway. This movie is especially pleasant to watch in theaters, being that if you watch it at home you might wander off or multi-task or have your cock out while "watching." It's much easier to pay attention when you are sitting in a theater because what else are you going to do? I guess you could still have your cock-out, but you'd end up like Paul Reubens (AKA Pee-wee Herman, the theater masturbator).
    The last time I saw this movie I was in elementary school seeing this with my friend's overprotective parents who, every time Gimli would make a joke and we would laugh, would proudly state that "You guys like him."
    A lot of people consider this the slower of the three movies, with the entire story building up to The Battle of Helm's Deep. Mostly everything before the battle is character to character drama, and this being the extended extended edition there was more character development. I love all of the scenes, and the added character development, but the only problem that I really have with this movie are the long and drawn out romantic scenes. While them being as long as they are is necessary to the dramatic effect, they are also sometimes very boring.
     This movie is my second favorite of the three, with Return of the King being my favorite. I can't wait until next Teusday to see it! The ticket has been sitting in my wallet for two weeks now just dying to get out and be used.

  2. I don't know why, I'm just now a LotR guy. =/ Read the books in school, though, and saw the Animated features from the 70s. Dug them. Might give the movies another watch.

    LotR always reminds me of Led Zeppelin.

  3. It's a very good series, these are some of the only fantasy movies that actually sometimes feel real too.

  4. I've never been a fan of watching in theaters. The comfort of home is a ton better in my opinion.

  5. It'd been a while since I saw them in theaters, it was great to get that same nostalgic experience again. Also, there was some weird lady dressed up like an elf showing people her "Lothlorien forest landscapes". Yeah.
