Since they ruined the Hobbit (I loved that book as a kid and it's still great as an adult) I have no confidence in them making up a story about Gollum.

I tried to read the Silmarilian once. It bent my brain inside of 10 pages, and back on the shelf it went.

As I understand it, much of the background material in the original LotR trilogy came from the Silmarillian. I've read LotR a couple of times, and there's a lot in there that's not in the movies (Tom Bombadill being the biggest omission) but they did a great job making the movies. Hobbit was a shit show.

The Ents in Two Towers were cool worldbuilding at the very least. And their assault on Isengard was pretty awesome.

The ents are very frustrating in their slow moving call to action but ****ing badass when they let shit rip finally.

I thought Merry Pip and the Ents destroying Isengard was the highlight of the entire movie trilogy. it was the only fight the hobbits took part in that was feasible.

It was fun but I can’t agree with Helm’s Deep and Minas Tirith on screen.

I really love the whole scene in Moria from Fellowship as well.

What issues did you have with them? Genuinely curious.
