murta Posted December 4, 2001 Share Posted December 4, 2001 He's probably a trekkie, sounds like a geek. Why can't you just like Star Wars and LOTR (but not Harry Potter) Even though I've never actually read a LoTR book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scabb Posted December 4, 2001 Author Share Posted December 4, 2001 LOL I cant beleive that you take things so seriously! Star Wars is NOT the best movie ever IN MY OPINION I am entitled to MY OPINION and MY OPINION is: Star Wars ".........nobody pukes on star wars and gets away with it you geezer By the way. I AM NOT A TREKKIE. In fact I have never seen an episode in my life. I am not a Star Wars disliker, but the hype and the die-hard fans are easily annoyed, and after all, I am 5 years old as the obviously mature "Al-back from the BigWhoop" pointed out. BTW, some sarcasm in that last sentence - figure it out If you want to find out how old I am, I am 16. And I seriously doubt anyone who has posted in this thread is much older. Star Wars is an OK movie. Better movies include Citizen Kane, Clerks, Shawshank...SW is extremely overated, in MY OPINION As for having no taste in movies? hmmm....all I did was throw up on Star Wars and you made your judgment from that? Harry Potter = Well written children books - I have read them, and they are great books. Just not as good as LotR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murta Posted December 4, 2001 Share Posted December 4, 2001 Well, this isn't the best place for die-hard Star Wars fans. I understand it's your opinion, but no need to swear. Are you a kid then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And mine is **** You Isn't that lovely? Must you go around a forum that's not for LoTR and puke on something we love. Go to a LoTR forum or something. I just find it stupid to thrash something in a forum about that revolves around that something. It angers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not as good as LotR. my diagnosis: - he thinks maturity = physical age - he thinks he knows MUCH more than he actually does - he isnt very smart (for those that didnt get that last one) - hes a quitter (and yes, i AM a psychologist ) for the 1st part of my diagosis, when i read your posts i actually though u were a little kid. being 16 doesnt prove that u r mature, just that u are immature: a 16yo acting like a 5yo (like u said) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjoyce Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 Somepone, to say, I _really_ liked all books on Ha4ry Potter, but I don't like all the hullabaloo with the T-shirts, mascots, or any other products, it disgusts me, very sure it disgusts me. The books are good I am waiting for the film it debutes is Dec 13th here in Hungary and there are no tickets up to February!! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natty Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 Ummm I forgot what I was gonna say- ohhhhhh yeah, that's right I already been making fun of the episode2 trailer, it came wif Harry Potter, and there's this bit where Amidala has the hairmuffs going with her hair ala Princess Leia, I cracked up laughing- too bad it was a tender moment between Amidala and Anikan, didn't mean to, it just looked too funny And I'm not a happy camper either- Harry Potter beat episode1 in the fact it took more in it's opening weekend than what episode1 did... Titanic is still first (phew!) and now it's Harry Pothead followed by Episode1. Lets just hope when Lord Of The Rings comes out it will kick Potheads arse (I still want Titanic to be #1) and then when episode2 comes out it beats Lord Of The Rings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Leo's character in Titanic? No I just happened to like the movie- it's one of my alltime fave movies. The Wizard Of Oz is my alltime fave movie though Actually- I'm over Leo now, I prefer my fellow Aussie actors *goes off into lala land over Heathy* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pollo Diablo Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 Ok heres some Lord of the Rings facts, this was in the METRO paper that I get on the bus to college: Lord of the Rings Friends: Gandalf, good wizard and central character, has a long white beard and flowing hair. He is a guide for hero Frodo. Enemies: Lord Sauron, an evil force that has fallen from power but is growing strong again. Enemies: The treacherous sidekick of Sauron is called Wormtongue. Burdens: When Frodo is close to Sauron, the ring he is carrying grows heavy in his hands. Places: Frodo and his friends visit a village pub and are served by Barliman Butterbur. Now compare these facts to Harry Potter: Harry Potter Friends: Dumbledore, good wizard and central character, has a long white beard and flowing hair. He is a guide and teacher for Harry. Enemies: Lord Voldemort, an evil force that has fallen from power but is growing strong again. Enemies: The treacherous sidekick of Voldemort is called Wormtail. Burdens: When Harry is close to Voldemort, the scar on his head burns with pain. Places: Harry and his friends visit a village pub where they Butterbeer. This Proves that J.K. Rowling has no original ideas and is copying a time honoured book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duder Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 so that means that star wars is an unoriginal concept, the simpsons is an unoriginal concept....blah blah blah. give scabb a break, who cares if he swears, he is right LORD OF THE RINGS IS THE ****ING BEST!

El Pollo Diablo Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 No, but how do you explain the Wormtongue/Wormtail incidenta and the pub incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_xxxxx Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 Well, I'll go with Ben in this one. The books don't bother me, the movie sucks but can be avoided, but the merchandise... Seriously all the merchandise make Harry Potter no better then crap like Pokemon and Dragonball Z. I never read the books, but this is just crazy. Books are made for reading, not te be a trademark. I mean look at Stephen King and Terry Pratchett: both very popular writers but do they make as much merchandise for their books? (Except from the little Discworld-sculptures) And of course Rowling is not original. One stupid writer (I believe it was in the UK) wrote something about the names in the book, that they we're original and had a hidden message or something...Bullcrap. Rowling just doesn't have the imagination to come up with real names. I mean, hidden messages in a name? Please... Lord of the Rings, on the other side, is an original story, written back in the old days where fantasy was something serious, not just a trademark. I never read it, but I respect it. You don't sh!t on LotR, just like you don't sh!t on Dune. These are so classic that they have grown beyond just a book. Still, they are not commercial like HP And to Duder: If you say something is unoriginal just because it has certain things in common with other things, practically everything would be unoriginal. But the link between HP and LotR is soooo obvious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pollo Diablo Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 I must admit that discworld is very good and does not get the credit it deserves. Plus the sculptures are of a very high quality and the games were very well made and were true to series, comalginating many books into one story.

duder Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 precisely thanks for backing me up there. Who cares whether names are similar, why not look at narrative and imaginative writing, which forthe kids is terrific. You are cynical and narrow minded, you are entitled to your opinion but realise that it is ****. As for merchandising, its no worse than george lucas, so why not include him in your ramblings. Unfortunately we will also see a huge amount of LOTR merchandise, not as much, but only because there is less call for it, due to its more mature nature. But on a good note....dune (apart from the film) is also a definate classic. Did you get to read the new one, from his notes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pollo Diablo Posted December 5, 2001 Share Posted December 5, 2001 Star Wars does have a lot of merchandise but that is only for the films and its at reasonable prices unlike Harry Potter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
