"Drivel" seems like a strong word. All that stuff works pretty well, despite how much it annoyed you.

- wolverine876 3y agoIn issues of art, worksforme doesn't resolve the issue.
- pjbster 3y agoPossibly. However, after further reflection, I am unable to come up with a scene with redeeming dialogue in any of the films. Obvs. my take is offbeat because the films were a massive commercial success and the Academy showered them with awards.
- ajkjk 3y agoI mean I agree that the Hobbit films are drivel but the LOTR trilogy is just amazing. It has a twinge of 90s affect that you have to ignore (similar to how the original Star Wars trilogy has a 60s-pulp-adventure feel that is rather dated now). And there are a bunch of discrete problems (the ghosts, the "cool legolas moves", too much slow motion) that we roll our eyes at. But otherwise they work, overall, and very much deliver on the premise. The information is delivered differently than the books but it gets at the heart of the universe anyway... imo.
