Return of the king X)
I watched this movie like 2 weeks ago,
and in my opinion was the best. I thought it
closed the series pretty well, and had really dramatic
scenes, especially towards the end, in the war, and
with frodo. Undoubtedly they all were awesome though!

I loved all three movies. I am an avid fantasy reader, and I've loved the fantasy world since I played FF4. The LOTR movies struck me in so many emotional levels that I can't even explain them all. Not only did I think that they were well done, even though somethings that would of been wicked to see on the big screen had to be scratched because of actual importance to the story line, but to see an epic fantasy movie left me in awe. Not many good fantasy movies have been made in the past, Dungeons and Dragons wasn't the greates movie, Dragon Heart was good, Willow, to name a few. But to see one as realistic as it could have possibly have been made, makes me shudder every time. When Fellowship ended I was in left in shock, I had to see the rest of the movies. I didn't care if a family member was dying I was going to see every movie. And to see the screen go black after Fellowship ended I cried, just cause it ended. Two Towers was so intense I sat on the edge of my seat for the whole movie. The emotional ending for Return of the King, I cried the whole time, I'll admit it, i'm not ashamed. I think these movies were the greatest epic movies ever created and it will be hard for anyone to ever top them.

I voted return of the king. THough
I personally think that the fellowship is
more fantasy and less people medieval
war like, that is the other 2. But ROTK in
my opinion is the best. I love those battle
sequences.

I absolutely loved every single one of the LOTR films. I thought the battling was great. Also, you know when you are watching a film and the talking bits come up and you find them really boring? Well in LOTR I found that the talking bits where actually really really good. I thought Gollum was brilliant. His voice had me in fits lol. I have to admit Frodo got on my nerves throughout the films because of the ring. Overall I would say it was and still is my favourite ever trilogy.
My vote went to Return of the King. I think this was easily the best one and Im not surprised it has the most votes. The battling is great and I love the way it ended. Seeing Sam Gamgee with his little hobbit family...brought a tear to my eye lol

I found the first one rather boring. The Return of the King was the best...

i like the Return of the King Extended Edition most because it shows the power of the King of Middle-Earth. The one and only Aragorn.

i personally love all of them (love the books more though). the only reason i went with the option that i did was because i love the story of the mines of moria and it my favorite part of the books (for now) and to me it was the only part that held 100% true to the books.

I voted for all the movies and I would love to do a marathon like Crazy Chocobo and watch all in nine hours my favourit character has to be Legolas Greenleaf (Orlando bloom) this was the first time I saw him and he looks so gorjus as an elf I even liked his ears I am reading "The Shanara trilogy" I don`t know if anyone knows it but it reminds me of LOTR

Wow. It's been a long time since I even thought about Lord of the Rings. They were all great movies, but the third, Return of the King, was just epic. The whole trilogy was crazy with battles, special effects, emotional stabs, and suspense, but the third really had my eyes bulging. I bought the trilogy three summers ago and sat there for ten hours straight; I watched the movies and all the extras (Other than commentary- that stuff bores me.) on my box set.

The first one was cool. It was the least crazy. It ran right up into the awesome category, but only made it to mid ranks.

The second one was great. It really started on the violence and epicness of the third movie. Felt like this one set up everything for the third.

The third one was WICKED. Loved it. I was ten. I didn't understand a lot of things in all the movies. Even though I couldn't understand a lot, this movie made me cry and jump for joy as it played. Confused as I was, I got sucked into Middle Earth with Frodo in the Fellowship, and didn't want to leave after the King came back.

I'm not really into LOTR, but ROTK was the best IMO.
