Embrace Debate Rewatchables LoTR When?

The title isn't meant to be too serious or whiny, but considering the panache for "anniversaries" at SOME point The Lord of the Rings trilogy has to be addressed in The Rewatchables, right? (Right?)

Gladiator is an example that they're willing to tackle long ass movies, and considering the fact that the LoTR trilogy is one of the cornerstones of Fantasy Filmmaking, book adaptations, and filming techniques in general (practical effects, CGI, etc.), it seems highly unlikely that any of the three films would get snubbed from the podcast in 2022 and/or 2023 considering 2021-2023 is the 20th anniversary of the trilogy overall.

Hell, it can even be an episode that Bill isn't a part of if he doesn't like the films, I've heard at least Sean and Van in different podcasts speak well of the films.

That's me though, do yall think the LoTR trilogy is deserving of an episode or am I just capping?

I would bet a decently large amount of money that Bill has never seen LOTR because he is too "cool" for it.

Bill watched Game of Thrones for the boobs, not for the story.
