Three simple words: Droning minor chords

You get maybe, in a 2 hour movie . . . 20 minutes maximum. Not 100 minutes.

If you feel it's that bad, create better.

I've thought this for a long time, I thought the movies were bad, like actually bad, and the first one, despite being the most boring, was actually probably the best one. This year I watched the extended version of the first movie and it was the first time I enjoyed it, but the others felt like large set piece battles and some simple, high fantasy plot as glue.

The Lord of the Rings is a great trilogy. Season one of Stranger Things tops it for me.

I’ve watched the first movie and tried reading the first book. I agree. These are among the most boring experiences of my life.

I got half way through the final book before I couldn't take it anymore.

If he would have only tried to let my imagination fill in become details, it wouldn't be so bad, but it was a trudge of over detailed explanation of everything.

Everything that spawned because of it was great, but the books themselves really are overrated.

That's said, I enjoy the movies, solid 8/10.
