I didn't like FotR. I haven't read the books, and I know the movie ends like the book, but jeez that was a crappy ending. Sure it's a continuing story, but couldn't they have set a secondary goal that they could complete in one movie, instead of just going and going and going and oops movie ends.

I sincerely doubt the intention of the makers of the LotR movies was to somehow preclude the necessity of reading the original books. I think these movies are supposed to be a supplement to the original novels, and shouldn't be seen out of that context.

I don't think it was at all feasible for the creators of the movies to end the first segment without having it be a huge let-down for many of the people who never bothered to read the books.

I hadn't finished FoTR by the time I saw it in theaters, but I was quite pleased with it. I knew the concept, and how it was just the first installment of the epic series, so it didn't bother me that the story of the first movie ended in the way that it did.

Since the first movie came out, I've finished the first and second books, and am just starting the third. I am very excited about the second and third movies.
