People complaining about Christmas -

But how the **** are these two boring pieces of crap in our faces all the time. I don't give a **** about some noncey Harry Potter or some piece of tripe about a ring.

Harry Potter
Lord of the Rings

Boring pieces of ****..

Waaaah. Don't watch them, then.

If a promo comes on, change the channel. Works for me when I see a "Survivor" promo beginning.

yeah... like most of PA's threads...

Naah. Even though I find the amount of the related material to fill every store and corner shop, I try to ignore it. This HP/LOTR-boom is just one nail to the coffin of capitalismus....

I'm saying Nazis are probably haters of HP and LotR the movies. Not necessarily the other way round. And not necessarily of the books, too, given all the Germanic stuff in them. But those actors...

or to get my thread closed.

These two films are just another example of sci-fi intellectualism =

frodo's can't be three feet tall. in the first movie, when he's in rivendell, the railing is waist-level for him. obviously, if he was three feet tall, the elves, being tall, would have built the handrails higher. everything else is camera angles.

and what's wrong with intellectualism in science fiction?
blade runner, for instance.

Creating a load of pseduo-clever bullshit, ok maybe these two were'nt the best examples, but you know what I mean about sci-fi types. We've got some "Nomadic Players" at our uni , they walk around all day carrying swords and acting like elves, or some ****..

that's not so much science fiction as fantasy.

elves, except for warhammer 40000, aren't around much in sci-fi.

Chances are they aren't very warrior-esque.

Elves wearing glasses DOES kind of spoil the effect, I suppose.

Like Legolas being unable to track the orcs because he'd left his reading glasses back at Rivendell

The answer to the question is obviously "no". Neither Harry Potter nor Frodo exist and thus, can't be killed. We should discuss more realistic questions, for instance if PA should be castrated or not.

I think the movie would have been different:

"The uruks are moving more swiftly. Hurry, Legolas!"

"All this running is bad for my arches. And I'm almost out of asthma medication! Is there a drug store on the way?"

Oh well, Park has just set up how he will spend his first 10,000 years in hell after he dies. In a small room with a bed, a chair and a bookshelf containing only the Harry Potter books and a LOTR omnibus.

Have fun!
