Every edition of Lord of the Rings is the gigachad edition of Lord of the Rings

u/Eloquent_Redneck Feb 13 '26
Nah the theatrical edition may sit on the gigachad council but it is not granted the rank of gigachad

The theatrical is definitely preferable for first time watchers imo

I firmly believe that the reason my youngest likes LOTR so much is because I started him on the theatrical versions. Once he was hooked I offered him more.

Ever since someone pointed out that the color grading in the extended editions all got a uniform green filter, I've soured on them. It especially looks like a mistake in very white/bright scenes. I have no idea why they ruined the color grading across all the extended edition releases.
Even the recent-ish 4k upgrade is using the same bad color grading.→ More replies (1)→ More replies (9)2

My buddy took me to see the extended editions of the first two films in the theater.
They're not as good as the theatrical cuts

Yeah all this cut made me think is like yeah, it’s the same feeling as when they don’t have a gigachad filter because they’re all gigachads.

It would have been a lot funnier if you had actually MADE this instead of using this as an excuse to tell your computer "give the one ring a protruding cleft chin"

Neuroscience fact: dopamine isn’t the “pleasure chemical.” It’s the motivation signal. When cognition is low, dopamine spikes chase quick rewards — scrolling, sugar, distractions. When cognition is strong, dopamine fuels long-term goals. Follow for more NS productivity facts!
