You don't want to get me started on LoTR. If you haven't seen Peter Jackson's cinematic treatment of Tolkein's trilogy then you don't really have an informed opinion, now do you? Most folks I know appreciate LoTR; they're NOT children! Most are well educated and would take umbrage to your remark. These films are highly respected as an artistic achievement and a faithful adaptation of modern literary classics. If it isn't your taste, that's fine, but if you haven't seen the films than how can you form an educated opinion; that's shoddy reseach, my good magistrate.As for patrick's inane comment below, we know the kind of Grey Poupon foo he & Victrola (his master's voice) get their rocks off watching, but they shouldn't get their jollies by putting down other folks tastes in films with references to cretinism and the like. I doubt patrick even knows what the word cretin means unless he has a thyroid condition, which is entirely possible of course. Do you really want to be sucked into a marriage of inconvenience with these two without an prenuptual agreement? ;^)

- I'll leave the "turd polishing" to you and patrick, if you don't mind, and that precludes further abuse of LoTR. - Audiophilander 11:48:54 11/18/04 (0)
