I'll send you a direct link to Geek & Sundry's YouTube channel (they're airing all six episodes).

If anyone else is interested in viewing the series, I added the link in a post last week thanking folks for support.

Cheers,

Ever since he fell in mad love with LoTR.

  and I'm still of the opinion that LoTR is excellent entertainment, but everyone's mileage varies.
  I'll concede that Peter Jackson's efforts since filming the first Tolkien series have fallen short, so at least we can agree on that.

    There are kinds that make your eyes pop out.
    
    Those LoTR battles have the taste of long bygone days... unfortunately. We were all much younger then!
    
    Even Patrick... :(

  thanks

  Ps. My last comment on Spielberg...his hair was going the way of the Donald...see Concert for Valor on HBO...
  - McKellen indeed was terrific. I still have a hard time understanding how grown men can enjoy - tinear 07:44:03 11/14/14 (0)
    stuff like LoTR, Star Wars, Star Trek, etc.
    It all seems so� silly.

    LotR was kaka. Now there's a popcorn flick. Elf surfing down stairway while counting how many orcs he kills.

      I am more mad at Jackson for the POS King Kong with Jack Black...there is 3+ hours I will never get back...
      
      My girlfriend and I went to it with actual "expectations" of a potential good film...it was soooo long and soooo bad, we were laughing when we were walking out, saying we are going to recommend this to people we don't like...
      
      Then, when it came out with an EXTENDED version on DVD...we laughed harder...who do we hate enough to buy this as a gift for??!!??
      
      Thanks

        ...he can't direct human beings in such a way as to portray real relationships or character development or even feelings. I think he has trouble understanding the actors he works with. It's easier for him to manage the more technical aspects of the film like special effects and sets, and therefore he is always relying on ploys and gimmicks. I think this bothers some people like auph less than it bothers me, but the weak attempts at humor, e.g., with Gimli burping and whining were beyond obnoxious and the hobbits-in-the-bed scene at the end of Return of the King was just silly.
        
        Interstellar has ZERO emotional intensity. NO real relationship is developed or portrayed. nt - tinear 19:42:24 11/16/14 (1)

        How do you figure no real relationship was developed or portrayed? The film very carefully and convincingly built the relationship between Coop and Murph, including his call to duty and her resentment that he would leave. This kind of thing commonly plays out between father and daughters. Slowly, it went full circle when Coop came to the realization that he ought not have left and could only witness his daughter from behind a library of books, a hugely symbolic visual not just for the relationship between Coop and Murph but for the divide from generation to generation as humanity trudges onward. Frankly you have to be a brainless, gutless, emotionless corps to watch this film and not get something profound out of it.
