Message in a Battle

The WP has a tale titled The Messages in a Battle about the recent growth of computer-generated battle scenes in movies, now that you don't have to pay all those extras. RotK clearly wouldn't have been much of a movie if the battle scenes hadn't been so good.

    Mods, mod parent up!

    He speaks the truth. The books were good, but the battles in the books were just a minor part of the story, in the movies Jackson almost makes them the focus!

    So in the end we don't get Bombadill or the Scouring of the Shire, but we do get massive battles? Bullshit.

    now that we're 'outsourcing' the process of making things/work, we're reducing ourselves to a LIEf of leisure?

    so, most of us will need only an outsourced monIE supply, to live LIEk billyonerrors/corepirate nazis?

    does anywon think this is ever going to work for US?

    it's easy to see why robbIE 'outsourced' his gnu 'dating' service'? who wants to hear about a bunch of lonely geekIE types who have been MiSled wonce again? how cruel can won be?

    I can understand where you might find it disconcerting - but it is in the book.

    What exactly is your problem with Slashdot and the editors here? This is a free website. They don't owe you or anyone else anything. If you cannot stand the way this site is run then why don't you simply stop coming here?
