Things that might make your eyes well up...
...when you're all alone on a Wednesday night with no work the next day and you're trying to watch all three extended version Lord of the Rings movies:
- Boromir's last battle
- Gandalf and Eomer appearing on the hilltop on the morning of the 5th day
- Merry and Pippin parting ways
- "...and Rohan will answer! Muster the Rohirrim!"
- Deeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaath!
- "I go to my fathers, in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed."
- Eomer's anguished scream when he discovers Eowyn fallen on the battlefield
ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz.......
So, um, this should be a fun drive to catch up with the family for Thanksgiving.

i agree! I have watched all 3 extended cuts of those movies over 150 times (I used to be a night shift nurse and what else does one do on one's night off????)

Exactly! In my situation, with two young'ns, it's hard to find 3 1/2 hours where I can watch Gollum an orcs and severed heads, let alone 11 hours for all three movies!
