Sam enjoys Frodo's faces, Aragorn gets a post-war glow-up, Legolas becomes The Riddler and Sauron gets a blinding - what more could you ask for? How about over an hour of Tommy and DL musing on the many endings of the final chapter in the LOTR trilogy?

Main Topic:

The Return of the King is the action-packed conclusion of the LOTR film series from the early 2000s, and it doesn't disappoint! Described by Tommy as a seminal conclusion, and better than The Two Towers, the pair go back and forth on the good, the bad and the ugly (looking at you, Frodo!) as they close out one of their many and varied anthologies!

Was the copy-paste CGI of the Rohirrim an issue for you? Who do you think should have earned the most money from the series? And where do you reckon Aragorn found Gondor's hair gel stores?
