Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

This is why I don't give a shit about superhero movies.
There's a certain something that's just missing. It's also why old school action movies were some of the best, they didn't have CGI, so had to do it for real.
Modern action scenes just completely fail to understand violence and impact.
80s slug fests are infinitely better than modern action scenes that feature more cuts than a diced onion.
The OG gone in 60 seconds was a masterpiece, and it's mostly because all the driving and all the stunts are real.
The editing and sound was also brilliant.
