Back to the Future? Shit, ala' Stephen Hawking, the fucking movie's premise is not even logical. Some one tell me how one goes back in time to stop his own birth and then one goes out of existence . . .helloooo. If I am wiped out of existence and never born, then i could not have gone back to stop my birth . .. thus we have a paradox . .but i digress.
Dont get me wrong....you are right the ending for the movie was anticlimatic . . .But I saw that one a mile away.
The thing i dont get is how they made the Orcs look how are Frodo and Sammy gonna put on the armor and blend in for The Return of the King?
You go see a movie about a book cause you are a fan, not because you care about seeing a new plot. Shit
Star Wars cant stand on shit since Lucas decided to fcuk things up with the pre-shit. That added footage of Han and Jabba that they put in? UGH gimme a break . . Lucas ruined it for me. He's a pompus ass.
But then again I am
The Real Eso
: Having never read the books, I saw it (as is my custom; why would you see a movie of something you've already read?*) earlier... now, it was alright, apart from a God-awful scene with Cate Blanchett that used the pinnacle of computer effects atari had to offer. That, and there wasn't much of an ending. I don't want to hear "but it's a trilogy" crap... "Back To The Future" and "Star Wars" stood as films in themselves. At least some closing narration to clarify would've been nice.

: * I typically don't want to spoil a good film by reading the plot in advance. What might be a well-made film might have gone a different way than the book, or may just not be as good. Hence I usually read the book after, in an effort to save the best for last. I used to read beforehand, eager to know the director's vision, but I've found that that serves to undermine one's own vision.
