I never watched it in a packed theater to begin with because my mom didn't let me watch PG-13 movies until I was actually 13 and I was only 7 or 8 when it came out

Was that the exact moment you knew you were going to be different?

>tfw you and your friends buy a projector and have LOTR movie night in the back yard with a firepit, beer and pizza
>tfw everyone gets drunk and no one pays attention to the film

Thank goodness, the LotR franchise is fucking trash.
I'd rather watch Star Wars.

No it was earlier
I didn't enjoy Fellowship on first watch. The theatrical cut felt rushed and I didn't feel the connection between the characters, seemed like it just jumped from plot point to plot point and I didn't know why they all acted like they were best friends all the sudden. Two Towers saved it for me. The extended cut of fellowship was much better.

Same
But I was fortunate enough to watch it with my 3 friends on a big screen at our church. Blew my mind and this experience led me to realize the superiority of home theaters to public ones.

You're the worst kind of person.
>Watched Fellowship of the Ring on a shitty bootleg VHS camrip
>Watched Two Towers and Return of the King on a tiny portable car DVD player on the way to Myrtle Beach
>Old brother hated these movies and turned me against them for years
>tfw watching them for basically the first time on my huge TV with surround sound turned up
Fuck these movies are good.

Even just the score would be enough to make any movie great. That shit is amazing

>it's literally impossible for someone to like Star Wars over LotR
Stay delusional, Tolkiencuck.
