    Did you show her the extended lotr cuts or the original releases? Extended editions are better for telling closer to the whole story, but the originals are better films.

        Yeah the long cuts are for existing fans and are generally not good for first time viewing. I’ve made the same mistake for nearly two decades before I realized that. And Peter Jackson even says as much!
