This is how i felt when i first watched fellowship. i thought it was boring and the drawn out "heaving bosoms" didn't really do it for me.
but i discovered that the more times i watch fellowship, the better it becomes. that's pretty rare if you ask me. two towers was also great, and engaged me on a more emotional level. now i can't wait for return of the king.
as for the abrupt cut. that didn't really bother me, but maybe i just watch too many art films and i'm used to strange or sudden endings.
i won't comment on the logic of the films. all i'll say is that this is a great trilogy, and i'll be watching it for years to come.
