If the Lord of the Rings movies were made today do you think the studios would split the books into more films? Back when these were originally made multi-part adaptions weren't really a thing. But now with Harry Potter, Twilight, The Hobit and the upcoming Avengers movies multi-part adaptations are much more widely done. Considering the success of these films I bet the studio is kinda kicking themselves for not leaving room for more movies.

I wouldn’t of minded 4 movies, but 5 of one story would be too much.
Lord of the Rings was ground-breaking for its time, even though the books were well known and much loved, the studios saw it as unfilmable.
We are lucky we got 3 movies, though I wish we got a one film Hobbit movie first.

Agreed. And I'm glad the LOTR movies were made the way they were.

I did think if LOTRs came out today they would have split each film into 2, so we would have ended up with 6 in total. I am so glad LOTRs came out when it did. To me it felt like a lot of love went into making those films and you could see from the 'making ofs' how close-nit the cast and crew were. It was all about creativity, quality and love for the books.
The Hobbit movies though was about money. It should have been 1 film. Definitely NOT in the same league as LOTRs.

the whole lot of them should have been a single film... or a TV series imstead...
the three movies are too long for their story and are tedious... having it all as one movie might have made the filmmaking tighter and allowed it to flow more easily...
having it as a TV series would have satisfied the need of 1the fans for all the menutia and repeated facinating themes of small men walking in the newzealand countryside for days on end...

The small men walking in the New Zealand countryside for days on end was quite satisfying...
Though I get your point. I don't agree. The film already skipped quite some bits from the books. (Imagine a Tom Bombadil scene... now that would be tedious.) Although I must admit that it's been years since I read the books, I thought the movie adaption of the books was great. I loved them!
But I wouldn't watch them all back to back.

I actually do this each year and I do the double extended trilogy marathon Day 1 Start The Hobbit extendend Trilogy around 1 pm and End around 12 pm Day 2 at 10 am start Extended LOTR Trilogy end at 12 pm (take into account breaks for preparing meals,toilet breaks and getting snacks and drinks) and if you watch them accompanied with good food drinks (softdrinks beers and other alcoholic beverages)sweet and salty snacks,tea,coffee or cappuccino,icecream. and a break for diner and a real world version of the Halfling's leaf(or herbal cigarettes ) provided you have got a good TV and a good AV receiver with digital dolby 5.1 or DTS 6.1 sound and enough speakers there is no better way to spend 2 days during Christmas or Easter.
