It looks like I didn’t watch a lot of movies this month, but I rewatched The Hobbit and LOTR films - the extended versions. So those six movies were really like watching twelve movies lol. I haven’t seen the LOTR films in probably a decade and, whenever I saw them it was because I was with other people watching them (pretty sure the first time was on a college bus trip). I’ve seen the first one for sure twice (I was at a sleepover and all the girls - except me - were obsessed with Elijah Wood). I wasn’t much on the films at the time - too many ugly/creepy characters. And, while I still don’t like ugly/creepy characters (Gollum creeps me out so much I cover his face with my hand most of the time), I definitely liked the films waaay better this time around (a big part being Aragorn lol). It also got me to finally reread the book (I read both The Hobbit and LOTR long before seeing the films).
