We've arrived at The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)! Even though Jason is clearly suffering from what he calls "Tolkein fatigue" at this point, we discuss the pros and cons of this film, including what Jason believes are some of the best scenes ever filmed. We then move into film studies (exploring post-structuralism), the philosophy of "putting aside the Ranger" and of "just getting down the hill for starters." This episode includes some final thoughts on the series as a whole, which Jason will likely never watch again (unless they release a 1 1/2 hour edit).
Join us next week for Jason's choice, The Game (1997), before we launch into our next film franchise, Indiana Jones!
