Lol, I was active on Tolkien forums when those movies were coming out. Jackson made a lot of people deeply, deeply angry.True I've only ever managed to finish the Hobbit. Peter Jackson seemed to have made most people happy so it's not impossible.
I feel like that was reinforced when Elrond was talking to Durin and strongly implied that he let him win the test of endurance. Basically if Elrond can outhammer a dwarf, its reasonable that Galadriel could swim across the sea. Elves are just nuts, its not Galadriel specifically.Yeah, like I said when she jumped off a ship in the middle of the ocean and just started swimming toward Middle-Earth, hundreds of miles away, she is a mythic character, doing mythic things, including having the kind of failings only heroes of Greek myth, Beowulf and the like can have.
Maybe I'm wrong but I think that yes, elves are just nuts but Galadriel is REALLY powerfull, even for an elf.Elves are just nuts, its not Galadriel specifically.
nm. Not worth it.It's not just the hard core though. Quite a few negative reviews in mainstream publications (Forbes, Guardian, Rolling Stone iirc), not much online buzz.
HotD is cleaning up there. It was a rough start for RoP and the 3rd or 4th episode was bad imho.
I think one of the executive types at Amazon fell asleep watching it.
Show has issues.
Please, please, please enforce this next season. Please.I'm defintly thinking the 'it's not the same as the book' discussion needs to be spun off to its own thread.
You must not have been online then. "True" fans were angry all the way.True I've only ever managed to finish the Hobbit. Peter Jackson seemed to have made most people happy so it's not impossible.
