Lord of the Rings

johnburke:

Okay, let’s preface this by saying I’m pretty open and understanding to new movies. I’ll be the first to admit that I haven’t seen half of the movies I should’ve by this point in my life. At any rate, I was (forced to be) watching Lord of the Rings today and I can’t do it.

I fell asleep within 20 minutes, woke up only for food and have now been sucked in by the powers of the internet and Farmville. It’s just way too complex, and there’s holes in the story and the guy/group that wrote it must have been tripping off some heavy stuff because there’s no way a normal human wrote this shit.

The biggest plot hole in the series is… why didn’t they just fly TO Mordor the same way they flew home? O_O
