You guys who know me know I was a huge tolkien fan (a dork that is) way back before anyone cared...
So this post is totally biased...
Hmmm. Anyone see Joan of Arc?
The first half was pretty kewl with trebuchets and all.
Then the second half was boring as hell.
This movie was kind of like that. 90 Homo Halfling scenes and Aragorn was like a different person 1/2 way through the movie (a much gayer one, especially in front of the black gate)
Had to reply to this one TK...
- Gollum was annoying as hell 90% of the time, AND FAKE AS [censored]!!
- The battles were awesome minus the dead killing everyone and sweeping through the entire city like they were running from the ghostbusters or something...
- Legolas and the oliphaunt was awesome yet real fake as well.
- Eowyn's scene was one of the best (Shelob was a good one too, being "Her")
- The ORC general's face before he got ran over was commical like Chevy Chase (you be the judge)
-When Aragorn jumped off the ship (and when he was talking to the dead) it was really Disney, like Pirates of the Carribean Disney.
-Denethor was played pretty well, liked it, cuz everyone was sickened by him
And I agree, the mountain trolls and the Riders Charge were two of the best things in the movie.
BUT....
End the movie when it ends, not 3 more times and a "That's all Folks"
People say to me "well, Reamere it was a landmark achievement, and they will never do a movie like it again...
My ass, you gonna tell me they aren't going to do the Hobbit or the Silmarillion? (As three movies of course)
Ugggg, I overtyped again,
Feel free to chastise me at will
PS: I had to wait a couple days to post anything because I was a little out of it, after being blasted by 9 hours of movie. Had to get an objective feel.
