The fact that you are unable to appreciate it is your loss.AuPh

...appreciate droll, uninspired, dimwittedly manipulative movies is my cross to bear.Why pray tell do characters lapse into made up languages from one scene to the next? You know, two characters engage in a dialog in english and then in the very next scene the same two characters speak in a made up tongue? And then go back to english for the next scene? Why do we see scene after scene of panoramic long shots of hills with 3 or 4 minute characters running across them in chase? Time and time and time again?
I'm trying hard to appreciate this but all it made me do was roll my eyes and long to leave the theater. Predicting exactly what would happen next and waitng through the deathly slow and dull exposition to get to the set piece battles tried my patience to the limit. And I'm not arguing for more battles or action. It's just that the artifically lengthened filler in between went no where, accomplished nothing and played as little more than a rudderless director playing for time.
Character development is not spending large amounts of time watching characters do nothing or do the same thing over and over again ad nauseum....

This should be more to your liking since it probably contains all of the unsophisticated inspiration and backwoods witticism you won't find in the Rings trilogy. Sorry, but I'll stick with the droll charm of Middle Earth! ;^)
