Comment LOTR also pathetic (Score 0, Offtopic) 925

this might be unpopular, but really people.

here's my review of LOTR 1, for example:
1. taylor girl doesn't know how to play
2. jackson is NOT a first rate director
3. aragorn beats 9 nazgul with a torch? come on.
4. aragorn and elf women cuddle while frodo is dying in the background?!
5. elfs are 3 feet tall. this is not shown in the film. watch willow for crissake. a byproduct of this is that merry and pippin remain undifferentiated throught LOTR 1,2,3.
6. gandalf and elrond winking contest in the famous meeting: didn't people SEE THEM wink? is this some corporate drama??
7. boromir is a bad actor. and aragorn has no presence either, not a chirstopher walken type that's for sure
8. lagolas. come on. he almost doesn't speak, and when he does it's all classic yes-man phrases
9. moria chase before they get to the stairs is totally missed. great potential there.
10. final battle scene also totally screwed: where are people located? way too unclear and DON'T tell me that was the point
11. boromir/aragorn corridor conflict is downright pathetic. can't they communicate?
12. nazgul murdering blankets scene also coulda been shot much better. jackson sucks.

of course LOTR 1 is the best of the 3.
