Slashdot Mirror


LOTR Director's Cut Reviewed

popala writes "The first review is in on Home Theater Forum. There are a few screenshots from the unseen scenes and the whole thing is reviewed dvd by dvd! Although I don't like the review itself - I think it is a bit dry and not very journalistic, I do think it is still worth a read - even just a glance of the screenshots from cut scenes."

    oh my almighty god, i'm just the second poster, but that forum has already been /.ed

    Slightly offtopic, but this always amazes me. Why oh why are people surprised that an article gets slashdotted straight away? Do you expect it to get slashdotted after, say, 150 posts? Knock,knock people - if it can hold up to the traffic to get us to 150 posts it isn't going to get slashdotted.

    So this is why the HTF has turned to soup this afternoon. Thank goodness I read Ron's review when he posted it a couple of days ago. Now, if you wouldn't mind, we've got some seriously unimportant film trivia to talk about.

    He's talking about Drycleaning!!! Which i happen to love, and can't wait for the movie to come out.

    You haven't lived till you've seen Drycleaning in the moonlight.

    ok, so this is 'slightly' OT, but i dont care.

    oops, sorry, my bad. You're right. Ok, why did my original post get modded flamebait? I figured Braindead was one of those little known 'cult' films so those who've seen it would instantly start to envision LOTR crossed with Brain Dead :)

    Brush up on your reading comprehension. I wasn't complaining about the caching. I was complaining about deleting the link. The slashdot effect is very temporary, so don't permanently break the link to fix a problem that won't be there in an hour or two.

    Don't label something "offtopic" unless you know the topic well enough to tell what's on topic.

    I understood you perfectly. (Perhaps your thinking skills need a little work, though.) It's not their job to handle a Slashdotting, and it's inappropriate to call them idiots when Slashdot is the one causing the problem. Rather than complaining about them, you should complain to Taco that if he would cache sites, then webmasters wouldn't be forced to take down the linked content.

    I don't follow. How is that self-contradictory? It's not their job to handle the problem caused by Slashdot. I've reread my thatement several times, and cannot find anything resembling a conflict there.


    You claim: "When you put up a site it's for the express purpose of letting interested people visit it." The slashdot effect prevents that. Slashdot is in a position to solve the problem -- easily. It's simply the ego of the /. editors that makes this happen.
