    Lord of the rings. Over the years i tried watching it again and again but i either fall asleep of stop caring and do something else halfway through.

      Not to be that guy, but are you watching the extended editions? I used to also not enjoy the movies until I gave the extended editions a chance. Much better pacing

        I always thought the theatrical editions would be easier for first-timers, but I’ve never tested that theory. Interesting to hear that you felt the opposite.

        Just saw the extended edition. I can’t see what people enjoy about it. The dialogue is sharp but the story is abysmal.
