Hope everyone's happy now.... grumble... moan... complain....

Lord Of The Rings III broke the opening day (mid-week) record previously held by Star Wars I.

Everyone HAD to go on opening day.... (of course I did too, but my ticket WAS NOT one of the ones that pushed it over the top).. we could have waited... we should have waited...

NOT REALLY...

Records and all that stuff don't really mean anything..

Let's say Garfield The Movie breaks every record known to humanity... Does that make it any better than The Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie? No. Both are "cartoons" (even if one is live-action & CG). But they are different types of cartoons..

Why do people bother with the so-and-so record of this and that and the other?

I don't know, and I don't care. Like you, I think it is silly, and I will see whatever movie I want, when I want.

I have several things I would like to bring up...

1) Joe-da... what is this fetish with Garfield? Are you ok, buddy? grin

2) Entropy, what are you talking about? I dont have a think with records!

I am innocent, I dont care what Entropy says. happy

Smeagol/Gollum is more irritating than Jar-Jar.

I loves me some Jar-Jar. That said, I'm still glad he had a smaller role in Episode II...

By the way, can't tell you about me Garfield fetish.... yet..

I was just jooooking about that, Entropy! Well, um.... sorta. grin


And Joe-da, dont make me compare Gollum to Jar Jar. I am a Star Wars fan first, and I would be ashamed of what I said, so dont make me do it. happy

I loves me some Jar Jar... oh, and Garfield.

I never understood all the Jar Jar hatred.

By the way, I said Gollum is irritating, but he's SUPPOSED to be that way. It was the same deal with Jar Jar.

If you think about it, it's realistic. Not everyone in life is likeable. A lot of movies don't acknowledge this and make even characters who should be unliked "likeable". I commend all brave enough to take a stand - such as Jackson & Lucas in these cases.

I think Jar Jar should become the permanent Naboo ambassador to Alderaan.
