tough one... i think this one might be close.

i'm going with Fellowship of the Ring... because frankly, imo, the anticipation that was created for and from the first one was phenomenal... oh, and i hated the truncated cinema version of Return of the King.

I'm voting for Return of The King. Difficult to justify my position because, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with LOTR:FOTR.

I just think Return of The King is a bit more... intense.

Charlatan · 05-25-2004, 05:12 AM

Going with ROTK... While both deviate from the story ROTK annoyed me less.

Polyphobic · 05-25-2004, 07:15 AM

ROTK. However, it could have done with a shorter ending.

Averett · 05-25-2004, 07:40 AM

I haven't seen Return of the King yet. But I will this weekend

So I shall hold my voting until then.

Return of The King could be out of the tournament by then, though that's looking highly unlikely at the moment.

Use your wimmins intuition and take a guess at how good it's going to be.

absorbentishe · 05-25-2004, 07:54 AM

ROTK for me. I think both were away from the story line, the intensity of ROTK got for this on.

Alright... Went with ROTK. Went with the crowd

WarWagon · 05-25-2004, 11:06 AM

I thought ROTK was semi-boring, and all I could think about during the ending was "God I've got to pee."

shalafi · 05-26-2004, 05:26 AM

ROTK more blood, death, and destruction

Fremen · 05-26-2004, 04:49 PM

Since I haven't seen ROTK yet, I pick LOTR.
