I read the books (The Hobbit + the trilogy) nearly a half century ago while in high school. Didn't retain much, except a few names and some context. I remember using LOR character names for my D&D characters while playing D&D in high school in the late 70s/early 80s. Then, I watched the LOR trilogy movies each once in the theater in the early 2000s. Stunning. For Two Towers, saw it at midnight with a friend, and was blown away by the battle scenes. Then, I watched bits and pieces of the movies when I bought the DVDs for my kids in the late 2000s. But that's it. Fast forward to this year (2023), I streamed the trilogy 3 times and now realize how truly good these movies are. "I go to my fathers in whose mighty company, I shall not now feel ashamed." Giving up immortality and thus die in a few short decades seems too drastic to me, no matter the circumstances.

The first time you see Smeagal in this, he looks like Ozzy Osbourne. It tracks.

Gandalf's staff was broken in the extended version but not the theatrical version. Then, later Gandalf has his staff back, when boarding the ships for the undying land, because that scene was shot for the theatrical version, where his staff was never broken.

I watch the trilogy at least once a year, sometimes more.

My favorite is The Two Towers but all three work together perfectly. I've been binging these films since I was 10

As great as these movies are I really am truly curious as to your thoughts on the novels. I'd love to have a discussion with you on them after you read them.

This film has a perfect three-stage conclusion, and the tears start in my eyes the moment Aragorn sees Arwen and they don't stop until I see Frodo turn and we see his face light up for the first time since he was stabbed at Weathertop. There is a reason that no film has ever earned more Academy Awards than this one. (Only two have matched it, and I recommend those as well - Ben Hur (1959) and Titanic (1997) ), Thanks for sharing! One thing, perhaps it was my system, but it looked like your video feed was slightly sped up at times. Not sure.

It’s funny you wonder if itll have the same emotional impact if you watch it again. All I can say is if anything you’ll get more emotional during other scenes when you know how it goes. For instance the Council of Elrond when Frodo stands and says “I will take the ring to Mordor” knowing the ultimate journey and what that journey will do to him gets me, especially because he knows what he’s signing up for, he was just stabbed and almost died and just heard Boromir explain that Mordor is an impenetrable hell. Yet he still stood up, a simple Hobbit and took all that weight on his shoulders. First time I seen the movies it was a cool scene but not super emotional and now it makes me tear up.

SSoooooo soooo good, i always end up tearing up so bad hahaha. Lovely full reaction Addie!! Thanks for doing this.

Richard Maurer

Addie, I've done full watch alongs with 8 previous reactors and yours is up there with the best of them.

Jayson Phillips

I love how annoyed you got with Denethor for speaking to Faramir like he did. I'm not sure if you have read the books yet, but there was a reason why he was like that. Time gets compressed in the movies, for instance it felt sudden that Faramir and Eowyn formed a relationship, but it was over many days of recuperation. Overall I have loved your reaction to these movies. Next up, The Hobbit.
