Still recovering

Rating: 10/10 (26 December 2003)

Words cannot express the emotion in this film. At first I was kind of concerned because it didn't feel like the other two films. I don't know why I just can't explain it, but when the action started it all came back. Totally astounding special effects. The battle scenes alone were on a scale that will not be forgotten. I hear a lot of people knocking it for not having Saruman in it. Which in all honestly I was disappointed with. I wish they could have done the cleansing of the shire. But other than some minor complaints still a movie I will not soon forget. I will say this if this movie does not win Best Picture at the Academy Awards I will be gravely disappointed. Last year I saw all the nominations and there was in no way shape or form that Chicago was better than The Two Towers. I thought Gangs of New York better than Chicago. Previously it was also snubbed by A Beautiful Mind. While it was good Fellowship was a much better film. Again if this movie doesn't win Best Picture not only will I never watch the Oscars I will not even acknowledge Oscar again. I'm still trying to figure out how The Last Emperor won in 1987. Well anyway there is my scoop. I hope that this movie gets all the awards it deserves. Peter Jackson I've been a fan since I saw Bad Taste. I hope you'll do The Hobbit or maybe The Wheel of Time series. You are a true fantasy artist. You have made my dream world into a reality. Thank you!!!!
