my rankings [In reply to] Can't Post

caveat: I find ranking these movies on a numerical scale a bit arbitrary. If pressed I'm not sure I could explain why one movie is .5 better than another, but this is my gut feeling about how the films should be ranked:

ROTK - 10
FOTR - 9.5
TTT - 9.25
AUJ - 9
BOTFA - 9
DOS - 8.75

(I'm sure the original 2-film version before the studio-demanded 3-film split would get a 9 and a 9, and a hypothetical 3-hour 1-film version could be a solid 10 if we could live with a couple of chapters missing from the book)

I have have given them in order... [In reply to] Can't Post

...rather than a ranking which would be between 7 and 10 for each, and all TE.

1. FOTR
2. ROK
3. AUJ
4. DOS.
5. TTT
6. BOFA

DOD and TTT are a tie really.

DoS rating low [In reply to] Can't Post

I notice DoS rates lowest for most people. That makes me feel better, because I really didn't like it and felt like a sourpuss: considered not watching BOFA at all if things were just going downhill from AUJ, but I was glad that things went uphill again.

From top to bottom for me (I haven't seen EE's yet for TH):
BOFA
AUJ
DOS

But LOTR is still my favorite over TH:
FOTR EE
ROTK EE
TTT (I didn't like the EE)

I think The Two Towers is easily the worst of the six films, and probably the only one of the six that I would say is truly bad.

"It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule." Gandalf, "The Last Debate."

It was a bad idea regardless of who thought of it... [In reply to] Can't Post

...resulting in too much cartoon action spread over too little character and plot.

All Extended Editions [In reply to] Can't Post

AUJ: 7
DOS: 6.5 (would've been the highest of The Hobbit Movies, but I hated the ending, i.e. Dwarves versus Smaug)
Anticipating BOFA: 7 (without 5)
Fellowship: 10
Two Towers: 9
Return of the King: 9.5

"And these are RHOSGOBEL rabbits! I'd like to see them try."
