*TTT - Overall Impressions

[Manardariel]

Now, after finishing up last minute Xmas presents, I finally have time for my reviews... <P>To be honest, I was a bit dissapointed. I mean, WHERE WAS THE BOOK?????????? The opening was pretty cool, but then it was like... can we get started??? All those flashbacks and added scenes were really confusing ESPECIALLY if you´ve read the book. I sat in the thearter going: "But what about.... " "And where´s ...." "But this should be different!" The last time that happenend to me was during Princess Diaries, and <I>that</I>was a bad movie. <BR>Here my list of the good, the bad and the ugly:<P><BR><B>The good</B><BR>The two kids from Rohan. That was nice.<P>The openíng, with the balrog.<P>Gollum. Is just me, or does he have a lot in common with dobby????<P>Gimli. Hahahahaha. The silly dwarf. Oh brother...<P>Shadowfax. Very beautiful horse.<P>Arwen&Elrond. In spite of myself, I started crying. <P>Aragorn. Hmmmmm... hot, as usual. Sorry.<P><BR><B>The bad</B><BR>Faramir. OH MY GOD, they turned him into a second Boromir. I mean the point is totally different. THAT was horrible.<P>Gandalf the exorcist. That was very cliché. And funny.<P>Theoden crying about his Son. I died laughing. That was even more cliché. <BR>AAHHH!!! <P>Eowyn. I was really, really anxious to see her, but maybe she was the greatest dissapiontment. It´s not her fault she looked like a FROG, but what were they thinking, casting her? The acting, I´m sorry, was awfull. <P>Frodo. Hihihi. Poor, pitifull hobbit. <P><BR><B>The ugly</B><BR>THE ENTS. OH MY GOSH, What the F$/K???. I mean ,hello, these are Robots were talking about, that was BAD!!! And I´m only saying, in the book, there´s no need to show them what the Uruks do. That was horrible.<P>I know that was a lot of complaining, but as I said, I was disappointed. And, to be honest, HP2 was a bit better. Don´t sue me for this one, it´just my impression.<p>[ December 23, 2002: Message edited by: Manardariel ]
