It was like the Godfather...with fewer italians...

The last movie I saw (in a movie theatre) was Return of the King.

Some friends of mine invited me to the midnight premier of the final movie of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, which nowadays would be busted up into a thirty-five volume series and milked for about fifteen years. I had these books as a kid, but I don’t remember reading them.

Anyway, we got there and the theatre was packed. Mostly kids and some adults that must have played a lot of Dungeons and Dragons back in the 80’s.

After about 3 hours of the thing, I was looking for an exit. I just wanted the forces of Mordor to crush these pathetic hobbits so I could go home and get some sleep.

Maybe that's why I haven't been back.
