Speaking of Lord of the Rings, has anyone else noticed that in the film Gandalf can happily call the services of a massive eagle if he so chooses, but then he just lets Frodo go on that ridiculously long walk even though he has tiny legs and has never left the Shire before?
That seems a bit cruel to me. Perhaps it should have just gone:
“But Gandalf, this journey seems like it’s going to be pretty long - is there no way you can help?” (I’m aware this is not a line from the film or book, so shut up.)
“Why yes. I just happen to have at my command a MASSIVE FUCKING EAGLE. Would you just like to ride that to Mount Doom, thus shortening this trilogy by about 10 hours?”
“Yeah, alright. Then we’re less likely to run into any trouble and also it’ll be loads quicker. Thanks Gandalf, you’re excellent.”
In case you’re thinking I don’t like the movies or the books so far, I do. I just noticed that in the film and it’s annoyed me ever since.
Another thing I noticed recently is that Titanic is one of the worst films ever made. It’s absolute mince from beginning to end. It was on telly recently; I don’t own it or anything.
I’ve missed my blog. Now I have somewhere else to force people read my ramblings. Hurrah!
