The Lord of the Rings (Trilogy) | 100 Movies Bucket List
My next pick for the bucket list was three movies that I'd never seen before! When I first looked at the bucket list at the end of last year, I thought that if there was any film square that would stop me from completing the challenge, it was this one. I have never been interested in The Lord of the Rings. I've never known anything about the movies, I've never wanted to watch them, I've never had any thoughts about them whatsoever. I'm also completely crazy because I watched all 3 3-hour long movies back to back in one day - so I spent 9 hours in a row watching these films! And honestly, I was really surprised. For a start, I was surprised by how much I knew about them, while thinking I knew nothing.
