    The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King – The Final Film Review... We Promise

    Send us a text Pull up a chair at the It Comes and Pints Pub for an engaging discussion on The Return of the King, the grand finale of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy. From Frodo and Sam's intense journey to Mordor to the heroics of Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli, we cover it all—including all those multiple endings we all love. As we navigate the emotional depths of The Return of the King, expect to revisit iconic moments like Aragorn's heartfelt tribute to the hobbits and the film's subtle depiction of the Shire. We also discuss the choice to keep Sauron as an abstract threat, enhancing the menace of villains like the Witch King, made even more epic by Howard Shore's majestic score that comprises a set of songs which underscore the epic tale of good versus evil. Prepare for a few laughs as we share behind-the-scenes stories and outrageous "Would You Rather" scenarios. We tackle the trilogy's enduring impact, discussing how elements have aged over time and making a few predictions about future Tolkien projects like The Rings of Power. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual viewer, this episode promises an entertaining and thoughtful exploration of a timeless cinematic adventure. Looking to keep the adventure going?
