The biggest trilogy ever attempted for this podcast… for a long time.
This was a serious slog. Now the real question is am I talking about the editing or the watching of these movies?

A quest of my own almost. It’s Lord of the Rings, as well as the very first episode of Season 2 of Triple Play. Let’s get this start with some Peter Jackson classics.
