对话文本
B: so, have you seen all three The Lord of the Rings movies?

T: yes, but I didn't really like the third one at all.

B: that's the Return of the King, right?

T: yeah. Even though the customs were brilliant, I didn't think it was as good as the first two. What did you think?

B: I thought the special effects were amazing, but I got a bit confused. The plot was too complicated for me.

T: did you read the books before you watched the movies?

B: no. did you?

T: yes, I've read them many times. I think it's much easier to follow for people who were already familiar with all the characters.

B: yes, trying to keep track of all the characters was quite confusing for me.

T: I also think that it was much better in the theatre than at home.

B: most movies are. Another problem for me was the film was dubbed in German with English subtitles.

T: that happens a lot in non-English speaking countries.

B: I heard that The Return of the King was nominated for 11 Oscars.

T: actually, they not only had 11 nominations, but they won 11 Oscars, too!
