Oh really? I am/was a pretty huge
Age of Empires fan. Wish they were still around.

I rewatched the first
Robocop the other day (I've never seen any of the sequels or the remake, I admit); it's an absolutely terrific film, the kind of action film that simply isn't made anymore.
I must admit you make a good point about adapting
The Hobbit, and I think this comes down to their efforts also to make it "more like The Lord of the Rings" by trying to turn it into an ensemble piece. Even though it's a trilogy of films which all go for well over two hours each, parts
still feel rushed - usually the more sombre parts they gloss over so that they can get to more action...
