No, no, you need to look at the other drivers rating them. Your work is why they exist. Pickup truck as grocery getter, office commuter, alpha status symbol etc. that's where they've been overrated.speedie wrote: Sat Apr 20, 2024 12:50 amAs a tradesperson, renovator and frequent boat tower, I cannot live without one.
Underrated.

They could have cut 40-40% and it wouldn't have lost anything.
Someone in the audience yelled out "Thank fuck!" : )
Yeah I watched the first two at the cinema but by the third one my butt just couldn't face the 3 hour numbing.

123I like the first one a lot, and don't mind the others, but the very concept of the 'extended' versions was deranged.Curry Pervert wrote: Sat Apr 20, 2024 8:25 pm Yeah I watched the first two at the cinema but by the third one my butt just couldn't face the 3 hour numbing.

124Yeah, you'd have to be a big fan of the books/films/lore to want more.pldms wrote: Sun Apr 21, 2024 6:11 amI like the first one a lot, and don't mind the others, but the very concept of the 'extended' versions was deranged.Curry Pervert wrote: Sat Apr 20, 2024 8:25 pm Yeah I watched the first two at the cinema but by the third one my butt just couldn't face the 3 hour numbing.
I watched the trilogy when they first came out. They were enjoyable, but I don't need to see them again. Didn't see The Hobbit movies either.

Re: Massively Overrated Stuff
125They're shit, you're missing nothing. On a brighter note it seems the public is largely aware so not overrated.
Re: Massively Overrated Stuff
126I’d recommend tracking down the fan edited version. Some guy cut all three down to one film by deleting out everything not from the book. It’s well done with only a few jarring cuts.losthighway wrote: Sun Apr 21, 2024 11:39 amThey're shit, you're missing nothing. On a brighter note it seems the public is largely aware so not overrated.

127I'm sure it's been mentioned, but here's a nod to Game of Thrones.
We're headed for social anarchy when people start pissing on bookstores.

128Not sure where it's rated but if anyone uses it it's overrated-
The word 'nothingburger'.

130Totally get that I am most likely in the minority on this one.
Glad the thing is around for the folks who enjoy it.
