Why did they spend so long walking to get to mount doom, nothing but walking, occasional fight then more walking, these movies went on forever, why didn't they just get the eagle that brought them back to take them there in the first place

I think these movies had to be as long as they were. If they just had non stop action no one would have cared.
I can't say enough about the battle for Helm's Deep. The anticipation leading up to that battle just built and built until it was finally there and then the battle itself was unbelievable.

the battle scenes in all 3 movies were amazing, but it was all the bits inbetween that bored me, i understand it's an all time classic story and Peter Jackson did an awesome job of bringing to the big screen, but i found myself becoming bored way too easily, there just wasn't enough to hold my attention

Not to mention that if you make all three into one big movie it'd be kinda long and borring.

You guys aren't fans of it huh? lol
I loved the movies. I own the extended edition DVD's and i had them signed by Viggo Mortensen and Miranda Otto.
I loved the build up before battles and the way the Fellowship grew stronger and stronger.

I have the first one yes. I've watched the third one and that was awesome. Alot better than Harry Potter I must say.

I love Harry Potter lol
LOTR is very good though and the battle scenes are amazing. We've met Viggo Mortensen and he's the nicest guy you could ever meet. He answered all my questions about who would win a real fight and stuff like that.

i'm afraid not, i need something that will grab my attention from the start, and this didn't, it's a good trilogy in it's own right, just not for me
