yeah, i dunno - it sort of hit me after TTT, as well (as i noted, i still haven't unwrapped my copy of TTT:EE), but i guess it just seemed to get much worse in ROTK. especially after watching them all one after another, you know?
you may be right...but then so is fran-walshing and movie-ing, it would seem.
at least the booze kept me in my seat instead of walking out of the theater...
i did my trilogy at the theater when ROTK was released. the best part for me was smuggling in some hooch between TTT:EE and ROTK, and then drinking it as i watched PJ's lighthouse sauron disembowel what little love for the films he had left me...
sorry i don't have anything more positive to...
