(Please note that the star rating for this movie is incorrect. It should be six stars, not five. Thank you.)

You all know this movie trilogy. You know the damn books that literally spawned an entire damn genre. I don't need to explain either one I'm sure. I do still feel I need to talk about this movie trilogy though after having watched it again recently. When I watched it again here, I was in a VERY bad place, mentally. I had so much hate and anger inside that I could barely contain it. Now, I did manage to calm myself down some, but what really helped me to heal was watching this trilogy. It was everything I needed. It restored my hope and faith in the future, or at very least, gave me the determination to continue pushing on, even past all odds and my own cynical, destructive thinking.

I have no freaking idea how Peter Jackson managed to make three epic masterpieces in a row despite everything, but regardless, I am so glad that we live in a universe where these movies exist. They should be treasured as much as possible along with the books as the two go hand in hand in my opinion.

Until our next meeting then, namárië.

Damn it, Vendor.

What would you recommend in its place then?
No no. It's great that it helped you, and that it's to your tastes. It's just not to mine (I prefer Sci-Fi over fantasy), and I honestly find it rather overrated. I just tried to be a bit nicer about it then my otherwise rather frank responses.

He really loves the Star Wars movies. Especially the new ones. Those are Sci-Fi!
Quite, quite, old chap. Especially the midichlorians and the sibling incest. As well as the black & white world-view. So Sci-Fi!
