Why LOTR Sucks: Bilbo Sees The Ring
This is a nice scene, when Bilbo gives Sting and the elf mail to Frodo, and he asks to hold the ring again. It’s scenes like this that make it unnecessary to pontificate about the evil of the ring. Show it through character interaction. Unfortunately, Peter Jackson loves to have his characters pontificate, especially if it’s a voice over montage.
Also, we get another close-up of someone crying, this time Bilbo.
Minutes Watched: 1:48.38
Number of Montages: 4
Number of slow motion close-ups of people crying: 4
