What went so right?

Just lucky. Nothing else. Pieces just dropped in their place.

The first part went right. Second and third part are slop and only bottom-feeding capeshitters disagree.

Talented people worked hard on something they cared a lot about and, for once, had just enough studio money to get the job done without massively cutting corners.

Heavy usage of prosthetics over cgi.

>>217402666
I love tolkien always have since I was a kid. I thought they wree ok but the gay actors inserted to much soft focus lingering stares and frodo and sam were too whingey

But the real disaster was they reft off the ending entirely
Which was the whole fucking point,

The shire is DESTROYED and just by a slimey minion and the hibbits are left to fight for it on their own with none of the people they risked their lives for who abandoned them.
>>
>>217402666
Simple
It was all white hence it went right.
>>
no one wanted skateboarding elves, gay lingerinng stares and the actual ending of the story left off because it was too dark and grim for modern audiences
>>
>>217402666
Best score of all time
Great source material loved by those working on the films
Great costume design
Great casting
Great use of prosthetics and miniatures
Tasteful use of early cgi
Excellent environmental setting

The moves deserved every award they got and more. Lil contrarians on 4chan will squeal because they have to be unique hecking snowflake chungus
>>
>>217404149
>Talented people
Ii would say knowledgeable or well-read. For example, they made pretty realistic weapon for the movies even by medieval standards, although they could have made some utter fantasy shit. It is really very well-crafted movies in the first place.

the best parts of these movies are the parts that Jackson took wholesale from Tolkien and adapted as close as he could from the source material
the worst parts are when Jackson went his own way and forced his proto capeslop and CGI fest in particular in the second and third movies
basically the first movie is the best because it is the one that is closest to the books apart from a few inevitable cuts (tom Bombadil and all)

TT and Rotk have flaws, but I still love em. I've read the books I understand that these movies are close to the best possible outcome in a hollywood system.
Rotk is a bit of a mess but it still has legendary moments like Theodens speech before the charge at pelenor fields.
If you are a hardcore book fag I understand your criticisms but be realistic about it. We know exactly how much fucking worse it could have been based on todays franchise films.

No one who loved tolkiens books liked these fiolms because they actually left off most off the end of the books and the end of the story so illiterate pissants like you would not feel sad

fair but don't pretend they were great or even good. You can't leave out the scouring of the shire and say that. No legolas or gimli or gadalf or aragorn there, the hobbits where discarded like russish and their homeland was destoyed and no one came to help in their fight

There were brown people, but exactly where they were supposed to be, like on the oliphant.

The gay sex scenes. LoTR is genuinely loaded with homosexual themes, motifs and interactions. Even the core relationship between Gollum and Frodo/Bilbo is an expression of the shame a devoutly Christian man would feel at having erotic feelings for other men. An obsession with little ring you so badly want to slip your finger through, you love it, but it's wrong, it's evil. Outright LGBT literature can't even come close to how eloquently Tolkien portrays gay ideas, and they emerged from his subconscious, lending an honesty and artistry to it that self-labeled "queer writers" can only sloppily describe in their college-lite manifestos about cock.

He's the Michael Jordan of gay fantasy writing. The Plato of homosexual musings. The Joyce of implied sodomy.

that's untrue but there was a great deal og homosexualisation of sam ad frodo by the largely homosexual cast.

It was a considered insuult to Tolkien who was a married Catholic with children as is your post. You are a little man, he was a great one.

They're good family entertainment that I can watch with my 8yo kids. They started to shout YOU SHALL NOT PASS as soon as they finished the first movie, and without the influence of social media or other people, so you know it did something right. I hope that they'll read the books one day of course, and the Silmarillion too if God wills it.

only the first film is great, the second film is merely good and the third film is indistinguishable from marvelslop, excused only by the mordor volcano scenes, the last hour of the film is just people saying goodbye to each other.

>>217404942
>In the books Grima killed him.
Not in the films is it and it happened inn the shire with Frodo and the other hobbits there after he has destoyed and polluted the shire, not in the film either.

The films are in the end of the day, shite. Could have been great but just had to fuck it up with arwen, skateboarding elves, homosecual sdam and frodo and completely ruining the story by leaning of the entire ending and the most important part of the books

>>217404497

I'm probably the only person you ever met who actually loved the books as well.

Some brown burger get's his version of Toliken, like capeshit but with swords and a happy ending. The retard version.

Because faggots are psychotic aberations. I don;t much like serial killers or cannibals either.

>>217404987
"Can" being the operative word there. You can't put your finger in a man's pussy, now can you? The ring is clearly coded as "male". It's a symbolic golden anus, anon. Just accept it.

Do you not remember how much normies complained about how many endings Rotk had?
There's no way they could get away with another 30 minutes of the scouring of the shire.
I like the movies so much that I'd have enjoyed it if they did every possible scene they could. But it's not realistic to fit that into a big budget hollywood film

far from it brownie
>>
>>217405052
>Why do you think so much guilt and shame was associated with the ring?
because it symbolizes absolute power wielded for its own sake and for tyranny
God, I hate literary analysis so much, you retards manage to force any and all interpretations you want whereas the plain sense of the text is obvious for anyone
>>
>>217402666
Jewish psy-op to make goyim think dying for Israel is epic and cool. (+ obvious s*tanic trips).
>>
>>217405002
Sure but the movies are already 3 to 4 hours long. I dislike Jackson's manierism just as much as you but it doesn't stop me from liking the movies for what they are.

>>217405095
I'm so glad to not be gay.

>>217405168
In the books it happens when they come back to the Shire, at the end of the third book. But this part is scrapped in the movies so the way Jackson did it is fine to me.
>>
>>217405283
What fans and Tolkien wanted you to think:
>Symbolizes absolute power wielded for its own sake and for tyranny
What it actually is:
>A symbolic golden anus that let you turn into an depraved voyeur if you dare penetrate it

This "absolute power" did nothing but turn Gollum into a hideous, diseased little weirdo gooning in a cave to the memory of penetration. That's not absolute power. That's homosexuality. As the Bible said, you will know it by its fruits. These are some very naughty and gay apples.
>>
>>217404851
literature itself is inherently gay as fuck, so jackson understood the assignment.
