Bad Victor, ...bad, bad! You certainly made an inferrence about the age of Tolkien's readers & viewers; no offense, but that's the sort of slippery manuever one might expect to see Outside!

Your mama should have taught you... - Victor Khomenko 13:43:04 01/29/04 (3)
...that getting personal when you have nothing to answer with, is really bad form.
It is something that "young adults" should not do.
But I guess you still just don't get how much of your white underbelly you exposed with that silly "young adults" line?
Speaks volumes.

  ...such a blatantly hypocritical statement should amuse even those who might agree completely with your rigidly inflexible and subjectively vapid viewpoint on LoTR; I'm genuiniely embarrassed for you Victor.

  Wha-? You're whining now because I indicate that you might be weaseling and calling you (i.e., but NOT name-calling) on something you clearly did through innuendo!

  LOL! Oh, I get it, you're having difficulty grasping the distinction! Well, I'm sorry if this plays havoc with your perceptions, but there is a verifiable difference between children's literature and that which is regarded appropriate for a young adult and adult market. If pressed I'll gladly point you to sites containing INFORMED opinions which concur with my own, but I'd rather not contribute further responsibility for raising your blood pressure (i.e., any more than has already apparently occured).

  The Library of Congress couldn't spin you out of your LoTR malapropisms.

    Hey - that is your constitutional right: you like children's books and films - enjoy, no need to get this defensive, or try to force those who don't want to.
    My only objection is when you start presenting the naive and poorly made children's opus as something on par with... with... well, there is that life outside the children's books.
    But I guess the War and Peace comparisson already told us the whole story.
    I recall, when my daughter was around 13, she would argue and rather hotly, that Michael Jackson was the second Mozart.
    - Object away, the LoTR films & books are neither naive, poorly made, nor, strictly speaking, a children's opus. - Audiophilander 17:14:15 01/29/04 (0)
      OTOH, your attitude on this subject is another matter, but let's not go there.

      Naw, that would probably be Joe Bonamassa! ;^)
