*BANISHED*

tolkien's women are madonnas. he didn't understand women any more than his BFF CS Lewis.

 

but they're still better books.

 

Not many men understand women to be fair

 

he had a really special kind of ignorance.

 

and.... i've never noticed a lot of that kind of ignorance but i don't understand men myself.

I wasn't being entirely serious

 

Its a valid criticism of Tolkien, but to make out the Robert Jordan was much better is a mistake imo

each to his or her own. I am holding out definitive decision until 1/8/13

i don't think he was, he just knew what he liked and put lots of it in the books.

meh

_{Dosen't do much for ya?}

nah, noone in that movie particularly did.

those movies i should say. well... there were a couple nice looking long viking types on horses, and the orcs were well put together. but overall, meh.

 

What about this lovely specimen?

kinda like him actually. he's like one of those poor furless cats...

I know he looks kinda "Brittish", but he loves tea and fish........?

Ah... I got ya.

he's a good boy half the time. and frodo never would have gone through with the job without him.

too true. made it.... wow, like 40 years without a cat and.... then julie newmar took over or something.

Julie Newmar - not my favorite. Urtha Kitt, now she rocks it.

theyre all better than that crazy one from the newer movies

Oh, she's crazy all right. Crazy like a foxx

and also like a bipolar or perhaps schizoid personality disorder.

We had fo choose actors to play various characters in English today... needless to say, a lot of them were from LotR :)

it's nice it has staying power. poor bakshi... he tried so hard.

^{He did try hard, and Leonard Roseman too. They were OK for the time, incomplete as they were.}

 

^{But Aragorn as a American Indian? As an american indian myself, I found and find that foolish...}
