Why don't they just go to any mall/shopping center the day after Thanksgiving? They'd get more realistic battle effects :D

Couldn't do that, cause then you'd get the feminists pissed off.....so not only would LOTR be racist and somewhat sexist, it would be EXTREMELY sexist, and stereotypical, and degrading to women, and women don't really shop that much, and women aren't really that vicious, it must have been faked, blah, blah, blah......and of course, women would take it personal when they were portrayed as orcs :D

I don't think the special effects get much better in a mall :D

But yeah, you're right, they could at least cast supermodels in bikinis mud wrestling to play all the female rolls in the mall scene :D

I know what you're trying to do QGJ, and I'd like to point out that it's all in the smileys...whereas I used smileys to convey my sarcasm, you are clearly just being rude :D

Hahaha....I hope nobody out there actually takes me seriously...we've had way too much of that the past few days :)

Oh, everything's cool, CB. :)

I liked LOTR overall, but I thought one or two effects were pretty bad IMO... like where a clearly cgi Gandalf was sprinting down that cave way more fluidly than a 20-year-old would have, much less like someone Gandalf's age.

The supermodels in a mud wrestling match sounds interesting, but I don't recall that scene from the books. :D

Well, it was implied :D

And I thought they were kidding when they said I had an "overactive imagination"....maybe I need to quit adding my own scenes to everything I watch/read...

:D
