5.0 out of 5 stars
The Ultimate Lord of the Rings Game, December 16, 2004
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Trivial Pursuit DVD Game The Lord of the Rings Edition (Toy)
Even though the description typed on the websites are way off base, it's called read the actual box on the game to find out that it is 600 questions on 2 DVDs, the game is wonderful. Even my wife, who HATES Lord of the Rings, enjoyed playing this. Being able to use both the cards and DVDs is a wonderful feature, you can literally play dozens of times without getting the same questions twice. If you like the movies, if you think you know them like I do, you will love this game. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up!!!

How well do you truly know the LOTR movies?, August 6, 2005

So you think you know everything about the Lord of the Rings movies? You may be right, but Lord of the Rings: Trivial Pursuit is a fun way to confirm it. The questions asked range from easy to hard- so you definitely get your LOTR knowledge tested. In the game, there are six categories to choose from:
1. Good Characters (Green): Who plunks himself down in Denethor's throne for a smoke after its owner's demise? (Example question from one the game cards)
2. Evil Characters (Blue): What substance on the leaves of the trees in Fangorn does Gimli taste, then spit out in disgust?
3. Places and History (Orange): How many months, to the day, are the Hobbits out on their journey before returning to the Shire?
4. Things (Red): What dangles from the left side of Gandalf's cart, as he enters Hobbiton?
5. Warfare (Yellow): What two spots are the Uruk-hai's body armor weakest, according to Legolas?
6. Making Movies (Brown): Who skipped the world premiere of FOTR to take her newborn baby to the supermarket?
On the DVD, questions come with cool clips, sounds, ect. In addition, the game-winning question is asked by Andy Serkis (Gollum). There 20 separate Trivia `games' on the DVD, where you begin at the Shire (game #1) and end at the Gray Havens (game #20). While LOTR Trivial Pursuit can be played without the DVD, the addition of it makes the game-play much more entertaining. This is a must-have for Lord of the Ring fans!

It's totally sweeeet, January 9, 2007
This review is from: Trivial Pursuit DVD Game The Lord of the Rings Edition (Toy)
LOTR trivial pursuit is just as good as it sounds. Anyone who considers themselves huge fans of the movies will enjoy this game. The nerdier you are the more you'll like it. The dvd's, however, are really only impressive from a visual standpoint. The questions are a little too easy and don't seem to get harder as you go on, like they're supposed to. The cards are mixed with easy and more difficult questions. All in all, LOTR trivial pursuit is definitely a must have for any fan.
