But the difference, Irish, is....fuck LORD OF THE RINGS. :p
Besides, spltting part 4 into TWO movies?
WTF would happen with book 5 or 6 or 7 or any of those insanely-long novels?
This aint DOCTOR WHO. This is a movie, and as a film on its own, I felt Mike Newell quite succeeded in emerging more on Cuaron's blend of Columbus' awfully gay(cheerful, not homosexual) vision of lightness and a twist of reality blackness of evil here and there....except more-so on the idea that shit has hit the fan.
It's amazing, but the most flat films of the series are the first two, which fans apparently like the most, but yet we don't never bothered with that damn kid wizard in the books.....well, Cuaron and Newell certainly are better filmmakers than Columbus could ever hope to be.
Besides Irish, for a so-called self-confessed X-MEN fan, how could you like the blandness that is X3? Hell, even the quite average first movie at least didn't fuck too much with the fundamentals of the source, and actually improved here and there in minor details.
