In Reply to: You both admire LOTR... one need not say more. posted by Victor Khomenko on October 1, 2006 at 06:13:09:
If I'm not mistaken, LoTR won more Academy Awards than any series of films since the Academy was formed including Best Picture, but the fact that Tolkien's books and the films they inspired are popular is of little consequence in this discussion (any more than your belaboring the importance of your favorite European grey poupon fare ad infinitum has merit).OTOH, if you want to discuss or debate how boring an achievement Tarkovsky's Solaris manages to be irrespective of Lem's work just to defend your own tunnel vision, then be my guest! I'm sure that tinear will gladly clean the pidgeon droppings off of your gargoyle-like facade perched high atop the Paradise Theater, Mr Roboto. :o)
