I couldn’t get into any of the LOTR movies. I like fantasy, I like adventure, I like fighting, but those films are boring as hell to me.

Me neither but to be fair I don’t like fantasy, ad venture or fighting lol. My brother convinced me to have a LOTR marathon and lemme tell ya I got a LOT of laundry done that day…
I completely understand you, even as a fan. Tolkien style of fantasy aged like milk. It’s contribution to the genre and literature as a whole is impossible to measure, but it’s just not fun anymore if you never saw it before. The movies aged a little better, but still not great. Anyone who says otherwise has either seen his work a very long time ago, or is looking at it with nostalgia glasses. Noone in 2025 could get through all the goofy-ass singing, lack of any shades of gray, unrealistic battles, and tree branch backstories without rolling their eyes once or twice.

I upvote you for being brave enough to voice your opinion on this.
I like the movies but hey everyone doesn’t like everything
