LOTR

[Fee]

<font color='#0000FF'>just come back from the LOTR film.........very cool generally despite a few more liberties with the story than the previous films. The battle scenes were spectacular - definitely a must see.
PS elves are just soooooo camp its not true

I'ts definately on my upcoming agenda, TBH I think it's a miracle that they got the series made, so I don't object too much with a few of the liberty takings, he's never please everyone anyway

i thought they killed off the campest elf?

wasn't happy with the faramir angle in the last one, but generally i've got over all the liberties

will probably go and see it after christmas when fingers crossed it will be a tad quieter

good to be planning to see a film that can't be spoiled by someone telling me the ending! &nbsp;

*Heretic Warning* - Do not read beyond this point if you are a LOTR fan who is easily upset....

***********************************

I *hate* LOTR! &nbsp;There, it's out. &nbsp;I nearly fell asleep in the first one. &nbsp;If there had been any &quot;walking, then fighting, then walking, then fighting&quot; I might have had to scratch my eyes out with my popcorn.

And the swordy fella....stay down when you are stabbed, stop all that getting up and fighting again nonsense, pleeease!

That's off my chest then &nbsp;

Read all the books after seeing 1st film and it's nothing but a kids book, I was expecting a War and Peace type epic bit of classy literature---------wrong  

Cheers, Malcolm.

I'm with Lou on this one. Thought LOTR was absolute cr*p, the most boring film I'd ever suffered through. Except maybe Titanic!
