I know, I know...everyone loves this movie. Everyone loved the last movie too, right? Other than myself, I have only found 2 other people that did not enjoy the first of the LOTR trilogy. I went into the second one with high hopes - I mean, I disliked the first one to such an extent that I was SURE I would enjoy this one more. I was right! But just barely!

With apologies to everyone who liked the film (and please remember, this is my opinion, you can have yours...), I found the film to be slightly painful. I don't know why! I can't fathom my not liking these movies. Maybe I found it too long. Maybe I found the fighting scenes to be disjointed and uninspiring. Maybe I don't like the numerous scenes involving wilted dialogue and sub-par acting. Maybe it was the seeming attempt at making it a huge, long movie so that it would be considered an epic. I just don't understand why I don't like the first two movies of the trilogy so far.

For my money, the original Star Wars trilogy trumps this one. Yes, that one had a lot of lame elements, in retrospect (the stupid Ewoks almost ruined it all, no?). It's lonely not liking a blockbuster movie. I'd almost rather watch the Matrix, and believe me, I hated that movie too. Sorry! If you liked The Two Towers, I'm happy for you! Just don't bring me. Please. Please? Please???

I stumbled upon this show one night, expecting to watch the great Married With Children, not knowing that the channel had replaced Al Bundy with...with...with this garbage! It even goes beyond the "so bad it's funny" level...this is so bad, it almost made me cry.

I remember watching this movie as a young teenager and rolling around on the floor laughing. Since that first viewing, I have (a) managed to get the movie on tape and (b) nearly ruined the tape by watching it over and over and over again. Is there any doubt that for a ten year period, Chevy Chase was the funniest man alive? I think I'll go watch the Three Amigos now...
