I can totally understant LotR............if I had been in the theater, I would have walked out. I fell asleep the first couple times I tried to watch it. It took my over a year and 3 sitting to actually stay awake for the first one. It only took two sittings with me falling asleep once for the second movie. I actually made it through RotK the first time I watched it......
really guys........unless you're into the whole dungeons & dragons, elves, trolls, sorcerers fantasy stuff.......the films are quite boring. I liken it to my 83 year old grandmother who has never used a computer in her life trying to watch The Matrix.........I just don't think the subject matter is too exciting to her.
