I don't care if it was a joke but i felt insulted because it just ticks me off when someone insults something they don't know anything about like "look at me i'm the best" . GRRRRRRRRRR

Yeah. Some critics don't pay attention to the facts. Like for the movie Passion of the Christ, there were these excellent cast. Then, this Jewish movie about Jesus came out, using almost the same actors. The critics blamed the Jewish movie that the director copied the actors used in the Passion of the Christ, but actually, the director of the Passion of the Christ did his casting and production AFTER the Jewish movie so it was actually the other way around. Seriously, critics just like to boo popular movies if you ask me.

Ok... OMG this guy sure hasn't read the books!!!!!!!!!!
And I can't believe someone can post this... he dosen't have any proves to all these words - that's the name WORDS - only words!
Quote:
In the massive Mt. Doom battle scene at the beginning of Fellowship of the Ring, a DVD pause reveals at least half a dozen of the 50,000 Orc Warrior extras are wearing modern tennis shoes.

Yes of course. Weta designed Massive and made the orcs with modern clothes! Hun, most of them are CGI!

Quote:
The Orcs were obviously stolen from PC game maker Blizzard and its War craft series. Too bad Blizzard is apparently too scared to sue New Line over it.
You make it up by the bucket load!
Racism.

Here're I'll say this:
Quote:
obviously someone hasn`t read any fantasy stuff at all! almost in every single fantasy book/movie there are orcs...


Quote:
The ring, which is seen to be at least two inches in diameter at the beginning to fit the polish sausage-sized finger of Sauron, suddenly fits Frodo's child-sized finger later. I guess this movie takes place in a world where rings magically change sizes on their own.
Yes actually- it does change on its own
Violence.

If this man has read the books or has watched the movies (more carefully but not to look for mistakes but to feel the power of the story) he'd notice that the ring changes sizes e.g. the moment in FOTR when the ring is in Isildur's hand it changed its size so it'd fit to Idildur's finger. That's the magic of the One Ring!!

Quote:
Liv Tyler's character is seen easily defeating nine strong supernatural beings, even though she is clearly a woman.
Sexist! All she does is summon up the rivers power and the power of her people- it’s not hard- a cat could easily do it! Though I doubt you have the brain capacity to….
The Battle Droid Syndrome.

I really can't comment this. It was not Arwen but was the river (power of nature) and she didn't defeat them!

Quote:
Every time Frodo or Bilbo went invisible with the ring they should have also gone BLIND. Your eyes cannot function unless light is reflected off the cornea. If light passes through it (as must be the case with invisibility) sight is no longer possible. Also, rings do not turn you invisible.

Yes it's a story and that's why when everyone except Sauron puts on the ring he disappear!!

Quote:
Legolas shoots arrow after arrow at his enemies, and yet the number of arrows in his quiver never decreases. I guess elves have glands on their back that secrete arrows.
Um- has it ever occurred to you that he may go round the battle field after and pick up some of his old arrows- then top up again whenever he reaches Lothorien or Rivendell?
Watch out! He's going to explode!

Before talking some people have to think about what they're saying! If he had read the books he'd have known that Legolas actually picks the arrows he shooted from the dead orcs!

Quote:
The heroes are shown eating again and again, and yet no one ever goes to the bathroom throughout their entire quest.

WHAT?? Is this guy normal?? This is a PG-13 movie!!

Quote:
The Elves, clearly the most advanced and wise species, are also clearly gay.
Hmmm….just like you perhaps?

NOW this made me mad!!!!!!! The elves are wise and beautiful, everything but not gay!!!!!! I'm going to say that he's a gay!

Quote:
The wise old wizard character was stolen from Harry Potter.
I am going to scream!!!!! LotR was written about 50 bloody years before most films you mention!!- If anything- h/p stolen from LotR!!!
Homage or theft III?

Oww yes of course, Tolkien looked into the Palantir and saw the storyline in Harry Potter!!!!!

Quote:
The "traveling on our quest through a corn field" scene was stolen from Shrek.

Is Tolkien a mind reader?? Oww no that would be stealing from Harry Potter!

Quote:
The character of Elrond was based on Agent Smith from The Matrix.

WHAT?? PLEASE BEFORE TALKING AGAIN READ THE BOOKS!

I think Ringers shouldn't pay attention to persons like this character here. He thinks he could be interesting but he's not and also next time he should read the books and watch the movies again before starting to insult the English language by talking like this!

I do belive we went thru this on the last forum... Anywho. I posted a message on his sad little forum protesting this, I did post this before for those who think it looks farmiliar



Quote:
Hollywood can't make a movie these days without crapping out a sequel the next year to squeeze more money out of the sheep. Guess what; there's ANOTHER LOTR movie coming this Christmas. Gee, I wonder what will bring Rocky out of retirement this time?


Um… in case you don’t, know there are three books

Quote:

Millions of copies of the LOTR DVDs have thick black bars at the bottom and top of the screen throughout the film. Didn't anyone catch this? You know what happens at the end, in the extreme foreground and extreme upper sky? Neither do I. Bush league, guys

This a process commonly known as “wide screenâ€

:laugh: :roflmao: :roll: Without the comments, this would be funny, with them its hysterical!!!! I have no sympathy for the author, complaining that he has recieved thousands of e-mails, he should have thought of that before publishing this.

Fireproof facial hair? Tennis shoes on orcs? The human(s my god!) changing actors? This guy has WAY tooo much time on his hands

All I have to say is that guy is an idiot (excuse the language, but it's true) to either make that up just to tick us off or not notice the obvious things.

I know, but it's a really lame joke, and it still ticks me off.
