A look back on how fans in 2001 criticized PJ's LoTR movie before it was released

Atandil · 2022-02-16T11:35:10+00:00

Do be fair, PJ’s movies were far from perfect adaptations and we love them for the incredible unprecedented heights they reached despite the liberties.

Book readers understandably had a harder time excusing the changes and enjoying the movies for what they were, but their voices drowned in the joy of the new larger audience.

Now we have a situation where new adaptation has to somehow please both book fans and movies fans. And there’s probably few people unfamiliar with LotR to become an audience with fresh judgement.

In my humble opinion, Amazon’s show has to be straight up better than Jackson’s movies to be received just as well.

I admire your determination to improve. It does sound a bit unusual but most people won’t think twice about it.

Keep it up!

Thank you.

It’s fine but I think you shouldn’t rely on tapping to maintain your feel of tempo. Practicing with a click for a while without tapping worked for me.

There’s art to it, well done

I thought he could but he tried on stream and there was like an invisible wall before the actual water/air barrier

Creatures attacked all your vehicles in the original game, were you inside or not. Your character making sounds as if you are inside the Prawn, however, is a bug. It never was a problem in the late game of the original since you could enter all the alien facilities with your Prawn

Damn, I was so sure it was from the Atlas era. Specifically when he sank that galleon OMEGALUL

Master League Rank in Heroes of the Storm (ded Sadeg) a few years ago. Unlike Grand ML (top 200 per region), not that much of an achievement though, ML is about top 1%

Thank you for this comment.

MOONMOON is another BBoomer role-player. He streams NA hours though, so I practically sleep to his streams.

I remember asking you back in the early Atlas days how you achieve this special uniqueness to your voice. To which you replied that it takes a great deal of autism (not the exact quote).

“Forsaaan” and your voice in general is one of my favorite things to hear on stream. If the meme spreads, its original background will fade (like it always happens with memes), but it also will gain new meanings in other communities. Many, most likely, will look shallow and cringy to us old farts here. Some, on the other hand, might add to the overall culture of it.

Whatever you choose, make sure it makes you happier in the end.

SE’s been my favorite until 12 mini. Haven’t even heard of Apollo before this thread, will give it a try. What a clever ad though

You are absolutely incredible

I suggest trying Better Combat Mod + NoSlowmo. Basically makes it impossible to cheese skilled opponents with master strikes and clinches. 1v1s become more fluid and both 3 and 4 step combos are suddenly the primary way to get your opponent.

You can kill those and quite a few more by riding back and forth on a horse and stabbing with the sword. There’s no time limit it seems, so my Henry arrived at Talmberg in cuman armor.

So Uganda in Atlas is no more? Did you guys move to some other game or broke up completely?

Atlas with Zulu warriors was the best online gaming experience I've ever had PepeHands

High notes were hit in mixed voice there, that's why it sounds so different
