So , have you seen all three The Lord of the Rings movies ?   Yes , but I didn't really like the third one at all .   That's the Return of the King , right ?   Yeah . Even though the customs were brilliant , I didn't think it was as good as the first two . What did you think ?   I thought the special effects were amazing , but I got a bit confused . The plot was too complicated for me .   Did you read the books before you watched the movies ?   No . did you ?   Yes , I've read them many times . I think it's much easier to follow for people who were already familiar with all the characters .   Yes , trying to keep track of all the characters was quite confusing for me .   I also think that it was much better in the theatre than at home .   Most movies are . Another problem for me was the film was dubbed in German with English subtitles .
