Sting Emotion in the movie.

When I saw the movie it was so emotional. The actors did a perfect job of representing the characters. I almost cried. Well I just want to know what you thought of the emotion and how it compares to the book.

I can't say I have ever seen a movie which affected me more emotionally than RotK. And it was quite similar emotion to that invoked reading the book.

Tolkien

You almost cried??? I bawled at the end. I had the same feeling at the end of RotK the Movie that I have when I read RotK the book.

Sting

I try not to cry in front of other people so i didnt burst out, but it still managed to bring the tear to my eye, no one saw it though because it was too dark though. The film was very emotional with the way the lines were said and how they used sad music to set the mood. I also find it sad because i always think forward and next year there wont be a LotR film to see at the cinema...At least we have the EE to come yet.
