Somehow despite LOVING the trilogy, I have never seen the extended versions till now and I haven't watched Return of the King, which I already regarded as one of the best movies I have ever seen. I can't even tell which parts are not original to the 2001 films but this shit is hitting harder than ever.
And the unexpected part of it this is, thanks to Rings of Power and an extremely knowledgeable ERA poster, I think I understand these movies better and that makes them more enjoyable. I feel like I missed so much before and now I get a few nods here and there. I lot of the names and locations were just too strange for me to get before but now feeling like I see the bigger picture.
Now if I could get ONE of my kids to sit down and watch....
