but I don't recall Tolkien's Ring trilogy EVER being slated as a Monty Python project!Yeah, they had their hands full with the King Arthur and Jesus thing. Had these movies come out before MP was in existence, I'm not so sure that they would have left it alone . . . it's exactly the kind of overbearing portentious junk that so many take so seriously that they make fun of.
The FX and general look will be as dated in 30 years as the 10 Commandments are today. Except that instead of a story that millions take to be true that can carry it to new generations, the hobbit stories are just silly and predictable childrens fiction.
And yes, one mans meat is another mans pudding, obviously. BBs are designed for people to put forth their opinons, whether you agree or not. My opinion that it's nothing more than a comic-book story is just that, my opinion. Some agree, some don't. Don't take it so personally.
