"The Hobbit" (film)

[Neil]

Afraid I'm going to pick you up on some of this I'm sorry but 9 hours of film with people doing nothing but walking... My memory might be fading, but I definately do remember a whole load of other stuff happening? But if making up a strawman argument helps your case, so be it Avatar aka AVATRASH Other than some ground breaking technology in filmmaking there is nothing in that film that is worth the praise it receives, in fact it was so bland even the Academy awarded his ex-wife with Best Picture because The Hurt Lock is great filmmaking on a budget Cameron probably had for craft services. So going by your point of reference then, it was a great movie as it was right up there against it? 8ft tall smurfs They were blue... And the analogy ends there... But it's an excuse to throw in yet another cheap dig. It certainly fits in nicely with the rest of the analysis you've thusfar put infront of us. Sorry but JC doesn't get brownie points for Avatar just because he spent $360,000,000 making it... especially when his ex spent $11,000,000 making a much better film and shooting on extremely outdated technology (16mm) No money really shouldn't come into it at all really... Yet there you are seemingly knee-jerking because of the money? I refuse to ride the wave or wagon of praise for a flick simply because it looked good in IMAX. And now we get to the crux... So you knee kerk to try and equal out all the generally favourable thoughts about it? You do realise you've backed up your basic insults of these films, with non-points or just more insults? I rest my case M'Lord...

But if making up a strawman argument helps your case, so be it You're right. I completely forgot about the gay love story between Sam and Frodo So going by your point of reference then, it was a great movie as it was right up there against it? No neil, it was another insult. Sorry to disappoint. The only reason the Academy voted it in was because of the knee jerk reaction to low ratings. Otherwise let us be honest that film didn't deserve squat other than sound and CG. They were blue... And the analogy ends there... But it's an excuse to throw in yet another cheap dig. It certainly fits in nicely with the rest of the analysis you've thusfar put infront of us. They were blue and lived in the trees, smurfs lived in mushrooms which were just smaller trees. More to that analogy there ole bean. BTW, yes cheap dig at a cheap shit flick. No money really shouldn't come into it at all really... Yet there you are seemingly knee-jerking because of the money? Actually in this case yes especially when you own ex-wife owns you with a film that didn't even cost 3% of what AVATARD did. And now we get to the crux... So you knee kerk to try and equal out all the generally favourable thoughts about it? Nope, the movie just sucks. It is over rated, over produced and just overly boring. You do realise you've backed up your basic insults of these films, with non-points or just more insults? I rest my case M'Lord... Oh well... had nothing better to do today.

I once made a thread entitled "I Hate Hobbits", and Neil didn't get on me about it like this. DJ must have pissed him off.

Anyway... Suspect, with the thought of two high budget films moving to Eastern Europe, the unions will not happen...

You're right. I completely forgot about the gay love story between Sam and Frodo Admit it, you hate Tolkien altogether. Blasphemer!

[DjfunkmasterG]

Admit it, you hate Tolkien altogether. Blasphemer! Actually I don't... just don't like the movies.

[AcesandEights]

Actually I don't... just don't like the movies. You saw the first film, rather enjoyed it, but had a confusing dream about midgets later that night and hated the films ever since. Admit it!

I loved LOTR. Got all movies in the extended version. Guess I must really like walking then?

I loved LOTR. Got all movies in the extended version. Guess I must really like walking then? Hey some people enjoy a lot fo exercise... then there are those of us who watch a fat and skinny stoner doing the dumbest fucking shit alive because we find it funny and more entertaining than oh... I dunno... say, 9 hours of walking.
