FoTR was a novelty - the first of its kind. We haven't had a LoTR movie since the Bakshi animation and were yet to be introduced to the great cinematography nor the mindblowing special effects. Secondly as I have stated before, FoTR was the most fateful adaptation of the three films. We went in the theater with high expectations and a background knowledge of the books hence were gratified when the film followed closely to the book and provided us with what we expected.
Those in my opinion are what made FoTR more endearing to some of us.

Ah, a psychic in the house! It looked an unnatural shade of cream and had a funky fermented smell to it. Could have saved it to brew mead, if I knew how.
