finally got around to seing Lord of the Rings, albeit on the small screen. have to agree with much of what was said. it had the inevitable condensed feel to it with the primary focus on the battle scenes. twas "cinematic" and the monsters were cool. managed to be epic without being overly sentimental or campy. i also was drawn to the elfan archer. i would always prefer that type of character to the slowfooted oafish axe-wielders in videogames. but then, im a sagitarrius, so how could i think otherwise.
i wonder, looking back at the thread, if Spiderman came anywhere near the aroused expectations. obviously the producers were pleased with its box office numbers but then so were the makers of scooby doo. each has a sequel in the works.
and when do we they start hyping The Hulk? interesting that they are banking on an essentially unknown actor to play the lead character.
heres more superhero moviemongering.
