Hey guys,

Here's an actual extract I found on IMDb of the complete idiotic ignorance of the people out there. (it's real, I swear)>


And so- the most over-rated novel in the history of Western culture becomes the most over-rated film in Western culture. I have tried many times to list the specific banalities that make this film so appalling, but have run out of paper/ink on each occasion, so I am limited to some general points:
-the dialogue is laughable
-the acting is dull and stilted
-the computer effects look like, well, computer effects
-the jokes are awful
-even the NAMES are annoying (Bilbo? Frodo? How excruciatingly twee can you get?)
-Tolkien was a self-important, portentous old git
I could go one, but I can't be bothered, in all honesty. Instead, I'm off to watch one of Peter Jackson's 'early, funny' films- back in the good old days when he was still making zero-budget slapstick zombie comedy horrors.

Isn't that just terrible?? [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
