Finally saw LoTR last night, and I have to say it, but it was definitely better than Last Samurai, IMHO. I could have done without the long-ass drawn out last 45 minutes or so that seemed to be in slow motion the whole time, but it did put closure on the movie, so in a sense I am happy.

Both movies were awesome, I'd recommend both to anyone, but for me, LoTR was fucking GODLY!
