It joined an exclusive list of movies during which I actually fell asleep.

And the guy playing Frito suclked.

and why does everyone have to be English?

Jeez.
 
what, you want them to speak Jive or something?

i'll bet you anything that Tolkien invisioned them speaking that way when he wrote it.

Nuts to him then. I'm supposed to believe that Elfland or whatever doesn't have different dialects? Not one American-esque accent? bah and double bah.
 
EBW I am right there with ya

I thought it was an amazing movie. Frodo was cool.
The special effects an scenery astounding. I wanted to be able to watch the next one in the series straight away.
Did you see Peter Jackson's small role or was that when you dropped off? :cool:

there's just no pleasing some people, is there?
 
sheesh i cant believe you are all annoyed about the accents lol its no big deal me think's you are all just just jealous :p (you wouldnt of been complaining if it was all american accents) the accents are english because the writer is english and the books were meant to be a myth/legend for england when places like norway had beowolf


as for the falling asleep its not THAT long (i dont think you'd enjoy the book :)) and i thought it was very entertaining all the way through i cant see anyone falling asleep in middle


as you might of guessed i loved the movie :)
 
First, most of the movies that made me sleep have little to do with quality. I fell asleep during lots of good, and long, flicks. This one just didn't do it for me. What can I say.

Also, how dumb are people in this society? They have a society for thousands of years and don't have guns?

Sheesh. And double sheesh.
 
Does everyone have to enjoy the movie?

if we dont like it
are we to be stoned or something>?


we didnt like it.........

get over it.

it aint like we killed cats outside the movie theatre or something in protest for spending 10 bucks to see it ...........

geeze


:rolleyes:

You know it's funny but I cruised some of the film critics reviews of the flick in hopes I'd find one who didn't like the flick and the net nerds outdid themselves this time. Each reviewer who wouldn't call it the best movie ever got ripped to shit by the fanboys.

Idiots.

I want to see it again and again! I live here in New Zealand and thought it was cool being able to distinguish where some of the film was shot.
Peter Jackson did a great job in this movie.
 
EBW..... we is individualistic

:p

Try living in Toronto. 90% of movies are filmed here. Doesn't make an overlong, underdeveloped, action packed to the point that it's pointless and quite frankly irritating as hell flick good.

Even with the pretty lights and colours.

Fuck that "individual" crap. I'm going to go watch Lord of the Rings again and again in theatres because I've been told to like it by the critics and fanboys. It has nothing to do with me enjoying the story, action, special effects, and drama of the movie. Oh, hell no. ;)

fantasy just isn't your thing, is it?

See it's that attitude I don't understand. I didn't like this movie, so I must not like fantasy? I love Star Wars.
 
Exactly my Lit Brotha

:p

Star Wars is actually more of a Sci-Fi series with a little Fantasy mixed in. But I agree that not liking LOTR doesn't mean one doesn't like the Fantasy genre in general. Much as I love this movie, it's not for everyone.
 
it was those comments about firearms that gave me that impression, not your dislike of the movie.
