Mysteries of Tendo City... - Great Rumbler - 5th April 2005
2001 is great, Yojimbo is great, LotR is great*, Casablanca is great, Alien is great, hey this could go on forever!
*Well, I think it's great anyway!

LotR is great. Maybe not the greatest film series ever, but definitely great.
Mysteries of Tendo City... - Great Rumbler - 5th April 2005
Looking at each movies seperately I can see how someone might say it's not "great", but I think once you put them all together it does become that.
I watched all three extended editions over the course of about a week or two, so I know what they're like put together. :)

You mean 'they're', right? :)
But yes, they go together. You really can't seperate them.

They're great if your standards aren't that high. :)
Mysteries of Tendo City... - A Black Falcon - 5th April 2005
Or if you like good movies. :)
Mysteries of Tendo City... - Great Rumbler - 5th April 2005
They're great even if your standards are so high that if God himself made a period piece you'd put it in the same catagory as LotR!
...
Well, I suppose not, but I'd say that LotR is definitely a modern classic.
Here's my scale, by the way:
Amazing = Best of the best, the greatest movies ever.
Great = Modern classics, better movies than you're likely to get in a normal year.
Good = The top movies of the year, not counting the greats.

As you see, your definition of "great" is very different from mine.
Mysteries of Tendo City... - Great Rumbler - 5th April 2005
They're definitely better movies than you're likely to get in a normal year [and we got three!!], but I don't know if they'd be in competition for a top ten list of greatest movies ever. Maybe if you they were listed as one movie...
Mysteries of Tendo City... - OB1 - 5th April 2005
Not even then.
Mysteries of Tendo City... - A Black Falcon - 5th April 2005
If they're not great, then is ANYTHING made in English in modern times good in your eyes?
Mysteries of Tendo City... - OB1 - 5th April 2005
Define "modern times".
Mysteries of Tendo City... - A Black Falcon - 5th April 2005
I don't know... but why should I have to be specific?
Sure, I don't watch that many movies, American or otherwise. And I've watched even fewer old ones. But still, saying that one of the best movies (combined) to be made in years isn't great just doesn't seem right...
Mysteries of Tendo City... - OB1 - 5th April 2005
Like you said, you've barely seen any movies.
Mysteries of Tendo City... - A Black Falcon - 5th April 2005
I love fantasy. I'm sure I'd rate it highly either way. :)

Just to clear things up, I have seen Lord of the Rings (the first movie, anyway) and I know who Sam and Frodo are. It's been a couple years since I watched it though, so... I don't remember that exact scene.
Mysteries of Tendo City... - Great Rumbler - 8th April 2005
I do believe that is because the scene in question is in the SECOND movie.

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy is indeed amazingly good, but now lets talk about the new Burger King Commercials with that zany mask! Good times! "Best commercials ever!" raves the Hyrule Post!

Yes, it's in the second one.

You are dead to me.
LotR > Star Wars :finger:
Mysteries of Tendo City... - A Black Falcon - 8th April 2005
Trying to start an argument? :)
Mysteries of Tendo City... - Great Rumbler - 8th April 2005
Star Wars > LotR
Mysteries of Tendo City... - A Black Falcon - 8th April 2005
Yes. But LotR is good.

And here is a segment of TC's code...
Function TendoCity fight(OB1Presence, ABFPresence, DisagreeOB1, DisagreeABF)
while OB1Presence or ABFPresence = true and DisagreeOB1 or DisagreeABF = true
while argument = true
if star wars > LOTR
lotr = lotr +1
if lotr > star wars
star wars = star wars + 1
if star wars = lotr
argument = false
while end
while end
End Function

Wow, an actual equation that perfectly shows what happens here. Well done!
Mysteries of Tendo City... - OB1 - 8th April 2005
Heheh.
Mysteries of Tendo City... - Geno - 9th April 2005
Nice job.

You win a sticker!

That was awesome, we should handle all our debates like that.
