Darkman124 02/04/18 11:28:13 PM #6 | LinksLiege posted... IIRC Tolkien treated LotR as one giant story, and it's split into three books more for convenience than anything. That's why the first two films don't have strong conclusions - you don't conclude a story at the 1/3 and 2/3 points. i agree with you and i think you are correct about the causes/drivers of the films' somewhat abrupt endings to their credit they don't waste a ton of time getting started again either but it means i will never sit down and say "Man, I want to watch fellowship today.
