- I loved the entire movie! it was one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen in my life! so i don't really mind the missing scenes, although it would have been amazing to have every important thing in it. the only problem i have with the movie is that it didn't say "to be continued" or anything like that at the end. i'm sure that there were people in the theater who didn't get the ending because they didn't know that it was just part 1 of 3. and i loved all the sindarin! i was actually recognizing a few words! -Stephen (Steg) "namárië"
