The LOTR movies are strawberry floating awesome, Return of the King might be the best movie ever created.
Are you strawberry floating joking? It is
at best an average film. Even though there's too much stupid stuff in it, Fellowship is the only good film among the three in my opinion. And that is largely because while he cut too much (especially the escape to Bree is still too quick even without Bombadil, the Old Forest and the Barrow Downs), he didn't add that much stupid things on his own.
It is very telling that the weakest points of all three movies is where he adds something new. And then there's all the stupid comic relief shite, like fighting with frying pans, dwarf-tossing etc.
The only improvement over the book in all three films is Boromir, and that's largely because he simply gets more screen time while he is alive, as in the book he only gets to be a more rounded character after his death, when you learn about him from his brother, his father, and his subjects.
And the casting is awful in parts as well. Liv Tyler as Arwen?
And the fight scenes are too long, and he adds too many new ones as well.
And what in the name of all that is holy is that red vagina above Barad-Dur
