Before I get started, let me adress Orual. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> And for those who say they wish he'd never made the movies: there are a lot of people who were either encouraged to finish the books by the movies (guilty), or people who were introduced to the books by the movies. Would you deny those people the chance to enter Middle-earth? I think that's selfish. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I am not selfish. I do not wish they weren't introduced to it. Sometimes I just wish that the movies weren't made. If I could change the past, at times I would make it so the movies never were, but the books were being advertised and sold. I think that statement you said was a tad bit ignorant. I would be selfish if I wished that those people weren't introduced to LotR or if I didn't care if they were or not because I wished that the movies never were and that only I got what I wanted. Now that would be selfish, but that's not how I feel. I only wish the movies were never made sometimes, but I do think that TTT was good. I liked it but there are things I really disagree with and dislike.<P>Ok, here's where I get started.<P>OH MY GOD! JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH!!!WILL YOU PEOPLE PLEASE LEAVE???<P>This is what the thread is about, here <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Now, why don't we all contribute, and write PJ a letter, not a "I HATE YOU" kind of letter, more of a "Look, you made some mistakes which we feel are rather bad". <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>It is not a thread to thank PJ for the films or to point out what you think was good, and DEFINATELY NOT to tell people they should get over it. I'm so [you know what] sick and tired of hearing you people in this thread compliment PJ and tell us to get over it and tell us how much effort he put in and tell us we should be grateful... If you don't have something you thought was a mistake and want to add it to this letter then LEAVE! I wish estelyn would start deleting posts or something. This is getting way out of hand and each time I hear it I get angrier and angrier. I try to controll it and my swearing too, but you people are just trying my (and other's) patience. No no no, you're going out of your way to push it further. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I think you all need to get over it. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Give it time and some of us will, but others might not. We don't need to hear it again. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I didn't go in expecting the book. I didn't go in expecting the Fellowship to be the book. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I didn't either, and I think that no one did. Can you tell me of anyone who did? Even just one? No. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I think a lot of you are just a tad bit naive to think that these movies would be the same. No one would make them the same as the book. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>First of all, we are not naive. If anyone is, it's you. You are ignorant. Just because we're mad PJ didn't stick more closely to the book, and especially since he said he would and that he wouldn't make any unnecessary changes, doesn't mean we thought it would be the same. Second of all, no one, and I repeat, no one, thought that they would be the same as the book.<P>You did mention a mistake, but you didn't mention it in the part that had your letter. So you should edit your post and only leave in the part about your mistake. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I'm tired of people bashing PJ. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>We are not bashing him. We are criticizing him. There's a difference between the two; get it right.<P>And I'll only ask one more time, and in a nice manner. Will the people who do not have a mistake to contribute to the letter please leave.<p>[ December 22, 2002: Message edited by: MLD-Grounds-Keeper-Willie ]
