Hearing you tell your version, that could well have been my grandpa lol. You sure you weren't in Oshawa Ontario when this released? 😛

No, it was close to Atlanta. I'm pretty sure it wasn't you and  your Grand Dad. 😛

Watching a movie like this nowadays where they were just trying to make the best movie they could possibly make without checking any boxes or forcing any political messages down the viewer's throat is

My comparison was with the modern state of Hollywood film-making, not the content of Tolkien's works.  I really don't know how that could have flown over your head...

So which films are checking boxes and forcing political themes? Just curious what specific examples you have.

I have to give this one a 10.  And honestly, it's hard for me to delineate them and rate them separately.  The trilogy as a whole, is just a 10 for me.  That isn't to say it is 'perfect,' but it is an amazing adaptation of a wonderful story, and they did such a great job with it.  

I really felt engaged with the films, and no problem watching the extended versions.  It has been a long time since I've watched them, maybe I'm due for a re-visit. 

All in all, highly recommend and it is a fantastic series of movies, IMO.
