Just re-watched The Lord of the Rings, it's a snooze-fest & insanely overrated

Before you get mad at me, when was the last time you watched it?
- Dialogue is mediocre
- story left me indifferent
- characters are one dimensional
- there are no surprises
- the world is cool tho
- and my god are they crying a lot while carrying that MF to that Volcano 🌋
The best thing I can say about this movie trilogy is that it is kinda comfy

I spent my teenage years reading, playing DnD and overall just being a huge dork. I was gifted the movies a few times by relatives who didn't know I found the movies boring as hell.
Did you like the DnD movie?
The two from the 2000s were trainwrecks that my friends and I mocked pretty hard. They had a few fun moments, but even then I knew they were objectively bad movies. Saying that, a 13-14 year old me would've been delighted to get those as a gift instead of the LoTR nap inducers.
But the new one?! Honor Among Thieves? Love it SO much. Goofy barely serious characters with hammy backstories living in a world that has both serious consequences and detailed history. Finally nailed it!
Wife and I are just about done with our 3rd-ish Baulders Gate 3 run and we are planning on giving it a rewatch soon. :)
Agreed, I was laughing like a child throughout
