Some bad things about lord of the rings 2
on
LOTR: The Two Towers
·
· Score: -1, Flamebait
I loved the movie, I was just saddened to see that it made no effort to portray minorities in a postive light - there are no Black, Asian or Arabic characters in it whatsoever! I though we had moved forward, with Halle Berry winning Best Actress oscar.
And to people who say it's in the book: I challenge anyone to find the section of the Lord of the rings where it states that the characters are all Caucasians.
It is just a shame such a fine movie was let down in this regard.
This is yet another case of/. taking one study and then claiming that it must be statistically significant when it is probably not representative at all of most people. The TEMPO study is obviously geared towards somehow making it socially acceptable to steal music. I doubt whether it is as widespread as it reports, as most people think twice before destroying artist's livelihood.
After all it take takes real scum to steal music and then to brag about it. And the imbeciles who post here will probably egg them on all the while as they do it.
Well you know why popular music scene is full of "artists" like Britney Spears? It's because of people like them stealing music and destroying the chances of decent musicians.
