9.5!

I'm going to have to say a 9. I loved it though, I really did. The battle scenes were AWESOME! Hehe

8.5

Well as of alaklondewen's post, TTT stands at an average of 8.768292683. Hmmm, it got better. The range is still 4 (LePetitChoux's idea). Well, either I don't know how to do standard deviation, or I forgot how to (probably forgot). So LePetitChoux, if you want to, you can be in charge of doing that.<P>Thanks for the votes again.

As a movie in general -11<BR>From A tolkienites perspective, 7.5<P>Minus points for the incredible number of mistakes. Plus points for battle scenes, casting, and special effects.

5

9.5

10 all the way!!!! Oops sorry, I forgot we could only say the number....

TTT is an 8 with the book and Tolkien's story in mind, but a 10 as a movie overall.

9.5<P>Everything are pretty good. I actually enjoyed the changes in the plot line. It's very interesting. The acting was splendid, the special effect was beyond belief, and the music was divine! (oh Howard Shore i worship you!) The only revolting thing was the editing. I know it's hard to edit such a lengthy and large work, but at least you could link all the scenes together properly!

10 without a doubt. It's what's made me look at Tolkien websites for the last week when I'd never been near one before.

9 cause of da lovey dovey stuff. THE WAR WAS GREAT! 10 for that! 10 for graphics<P>Over all: 10!!!!

9.8

I think 6 (because of the changes in Elrond, Faramir, and killing Haldir)

9<P>The changes don't bother me at all. Film is a very different medium and I can understand pretty much all the changes that were made (well, Faramir was a bit edgier then I would have liked).<P>The only thing really stoping me from giving a 10 is how absolutely powerful the breaking of the Fellowship was at the end of the first film. As a climax, it was far more moving then in Two Towers. I don't think TT could have matched that.<P>H.C.

7

8.5...and it would have been a 10 if they had portrayed Faramir properly...

I give it a 4 <BR>I think the TTT movie is a disgrace to the book<p>[ April 24, 2003: Message edited by: Estanesse ]

10 all the way!!!!

9.5

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I give it a 4 <BR>I think the TTT movie is a disgrace to the book <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I agree totally, but i give it a 5.5

Just to redress the balance, I'll give it a 9. My reasons are scattered throughout these threads.

Hate to be the rebel, but my opinion stands.<P>3<P>It would be even less were it not for the wonderful work with Gollum, and Sam's interpretation of hope in Middle-Earth. However, I fear these two accomplishments were lost amid the shallow plot changes and unnecessary side stories, and the fact that the film ended with half the story left untold.<P>Iarwain

Actually, I'd like to change my vote to a 5 (it used to be an 8). I don't know why because when I first thought 8, I was still extremely angry over the changes and all. But now, I've calmed down a lot (and I do mean a lot) and I want to give it less.

herm, 8.5 - 9

I feel stupid with everyone voting so hi but I would have to say 7.5 i loved it though I just judge it by the book with the understanding that it cant match it otherwise the score would be lower.

Can't believe I haven't voted yet!<BR>I have to give a 7, was very disappointed with it (in comparaison to the FOTR, which I loved). The scenery was great, though.<BR>Hope they'll do a better work with the ROTK!

This is so hard. I have to agree with someone (I can't remember who) who said that as a film, it's fantastic. As a "Film of the book" it was pretty bad. What with Faramir and everything... <BR>Well, I promised myself I would think of it as a film in it's own right without comparing the two anymore sooo-<BR>9.5

Id give it a 9.

8.5

I don't like how they cut so much of the end out but I'll be generous - 9

9.5

hmmm... Id give it an 8

9.5

I'd say 8 also.

7.5

7.5 The changes don't bother me as muich as the fact that the movie just wasn't put together all that greatly (I deleted my last post so don't yell at me, & sorry for the explanaiton, but I had to ).

9.5

Id give it a 8.5.

10 - as a movie<BR>7 - in its integrity<BR>AVERAGE: 8.5
