Much like the final Matrix movie I was grossly disappointed. I thought the storyline had set up soooo much more. Kinda like in The Matrix where I thought there coulda been some much better battles, and so many more great fight scenes instead of all the crap... well anyway this is about LOTR....
Is there anyone else whose as bummed as me about not getting to see saruman? (Let alone watch him fight?) Or about the chessy way that the Nazgul dude was killed? I mean come on, I wanted to see him kick some major as$ first. Besides, I thought he couldn't be killed by any man (aka VERY HARD to kill?) A fricken hobbit stabbed him in the angle which caused him to sit there as some chick stabbed him in the face? WTF thats just lame. And what about the king, with his big arse sword. I know someone wanted to watch him use that thing, in a real battle. Why not have one or two of the main evil characters vs. a few of the good ones. Instead all we saw (yes good, but limited) were tons of foot soldiers if you will, massacering each other (sp?). And then the one last thing I have to gripe about is the predictability of it. Ya I know, everyone could have known the ending, read the books. However, I just didn't, I had no clue how the story was going to end. But all the battles in all the movies played out the same. One force is winning, until backup arrives at the last second and turns the tide, yada yada rinse and repeat.
Cliffnotes: No great battle scenes between main good vs evil characters.
Chessy deaths, with no saruman at all.
To predictable
To many uneccessary parts that were to drawn out.
Oh well whatever, sorry for yet another LOTR thread.
