He seems to enjoy stirring things up by attacking movies that are hugely and/or critically successful, but mostly Mr. Khomenko knows that the LoTR trilogy is a favorite of mine and that I will rebuff his contrarian attacks on this series of films.Victor has demonstrated time and again that he hates sophisticated fantasy films and loves to trash LoTR at every opportunity; my guess is that he doesn't have "fun" at movies where he's asked to suspend disbelief and allow his mind to journey into an imaginary realm. OTOH, he'll gladly spread grey poupon all over some lame-arsed Euro flick with his buddy patrick, then they'll proceed to lick it off together in threads that go on ad infinitum.
The bottom line: Victor apparently prefers pretentious Euro-films with boring characters still searching for the meaning of life while the end credits are rolling. He doesn't like LoTR because it's grand fun and an epic storytelling experience.
