Home Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Now you're in pure BS territory, Patrick.

>>> "You just pick up something you though you could fight on." <<<

Not at all! You started this thread by trying to find an excuse to trash the movies, which you apparently despise, through the author's works, which you've never read, and some wannabe critic's lame article you found in the Paris (Hilton) Match!

These films are fabulous and are decidedly NOT the failures which you continue to make them out. IMHO, Peter Jackson's interpretations of Tolkien's epic will stand for many years on their own merits and eventually take on the cache of other much loved film classics like The Wizard of Oz, Gone With The Wind, Lawrence of Arabia, etc.!

>>> "This films are very bad, and I would not call them films at all." <<<

Like them or not, Patrick, I believe that you're in the vast minority here. The Lord of The Rings trilogy is both epic adventure and now a highly regarded cinematic treasure. You are certainly entitled to dislike these films if you so choose, either on their merit or, AFTER having read the books, as erring in their interpretion of Tolkien's vision.

>>> "And I respect the work of the director for trying to film this almost impossible story..." <<<

He not only tried, but succeeded, your debatable opinions notwithstanding. However, your "respect" is faint praise judging by the next condescending utterence:

>>> "He had the power but not the brain." <<<

Hmmm, and how is that? If the ONE ring were to come back as a key, it would probably open Peter Jackson's bank vault. I would say that he knew his subject, his audience and his own mind quite well. Care to try again? ;^)
