Jim from Film Rage joins us for Part 2 of our episode on the esteemed Lord of the Rings Trilogy, as we cover the final movie. While this conclusion to arguably the greatest film trilogy of all time was notorious for having "too many endings", it is remembered as the momentous culmination of Peter Jackson's direction, the cast's dedication, and the crew's perseverance to the immense task of adapting Tolkien's celebrated novel in the span of 3 years.
