re: Lord of the Rings Trilogy: Disappointing

Why didn't Frodo just fly on one of those damn eagles that lifted him out of the volcano at the end of the movie at the beginning of the movie to drop the ring in the lava so I wouldn't have wasted nine hours of my life on this overly-dramatic and CGI-tastic "masterpiece"?

A ring? Seriously?

If you want the quick and easy solution, why do you watch movies anyways?

The best explanation for why they simply didn't take the eagles is because the story isn't necessarily about the ring, even though it's the focal point of the books. The books were more about friendship and loyalty. Staying true to each other in spite of what they went through. What I always get from them when I watch them.

Alot of weird hobbit sexual tension in those movies.

All because of Elijah Wood. I think he's an alright actor, but he was definitely an awkward Frodo.
