I know that it is a joke but I don't like that website. I think lots of the jokes are very lame. Howver I just ignore the website and try not to annoy myself about the stupid jokes they put on there.

I thought a lot of them were funny too, these are just a few of my favorites:

Quote:
Why, in part 1, is the black octopus creature painted as the bad guy when it attacks, when one of the fellowship had clearly been throwing rocks at it?
Quote:
Why couldn't Frodo have been played by Christopher Walken?
(Any of us who have ever complained about the casting should never do so again !)

Quote:
Why couldn't Bilbo have been played by Vin Diesel?
(See above)

Quote:
Liv Tyler's character is seen easily defeating nine strong supernatural beings, even though she is clearly a woman.
(Gotta love that one, huh Lush?)

Quote:
Gandalf's smoke boat at Bilbo's party is pretty impressive, but smoke cannot be made to travel horizontally, thus revealing it to be nothing but a cheap special effect.
Quote:
Experts on the occult say in order for a wizard to floorspin a fully-grown man like Gandalf, he'd need three magical staffs, not two.
There really are to many, & I shouldn't be flooding the topic with things you guys can read for yourself, but I still liked those .

Ok, I read it again, and this is more than mildly amusing:

Too many characters to keep track of. The dwarf was clearly only there as a token dwarf character to sell tickets to lucrative movie-going dwarf demographic. Lose him.
