Nine hours of walking, one ring, and a drink every time somebody says 'Frodo'. Extended edition at your own risk.
A drinking game built for the longest films most people own. The Lord of the Rings gives you an enormous runtime and a very small number of things that actually happen, which is exactly what a good movie drinking game needs. Triggers fire on the Ring, on Sam's devotion, on sweeping landscape shots and on the endless walking. The extended editions add roughly two more hours of triggers.
Pick one film. Everyone needs a full drink and a refill within arm's reach.
Take a sip whenever the Ring is shown in close-up.
Take a sip whenever someone says 'Frodo'.
Take a sip whenever there is a sweeping helicopter shot of the landscape.

Finish your drink when someone shouts a battle speech before charging.
