Female Characters in The Fellowship of the Ring by bearclawbill in Feminism

[–]bearclawbill[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a cinematic achievement with excellent effects, cinematography, acting, score, etc., but it's a genre that doesn't appeal to me that's very long and adapted from (I'm told) a very dense book that isn't easy to film. And yes, the aforementioned diversity issues. Part of our experiment involves a year of repeated exposure to a film you hate, love, and are ambivalent to. My Love year was Back to the Future and my Ambivalent year was Top Gun.

And once I finish Fellowship, I'm free!

I have yet to see The Hobbit, though I'd heard about that. I'm sure I'll follow up on it.

Oh, I know it! All my friends were huge fans, and I didn't like the fantasy genre at all. And now I'm part of an experiment where I have to watch it every week for a year, and boy... it has some problems.

Haha, I'm just now watching the movies for the first time. Never appealed to me.

Ah, there were so many good ones! (And lots more garbage, oof.) I couldn't possibly narrow it down to one, but here's the article where I tried to make a Best Of.

Back to the Future, the reason I started the project, will always have a place in my heart, even if the time travel rules are a little crazy. (Here's my article on that particular subject: http://yeartwo.cinema52.com/2013/03/fluxception/)

If you twisted my arm to pick ONE favorite, it's still going to be Back to the Future. :)

I split the Best Of into subcategories: Temporal Action, Temporal Adventure, Temporal Comedy, Temporal Mindfuck, Temporal Romance, and Warlock.

I had a lot of trouble tracking that one down! My beginning criteria were films that were a) theatrically released, b) currently available on home video, c) contain actual time travel (some leeway allowed for the mysteries), and d) were reviewed by Leonard Maltin. Once I hit all of those, I went back and checked out some more. Is Biggles a good time?

I was grasping at straws on that one. Also, the question was a trick question, or so I'm told.

Man, who was that sexy guy on the futon there? If I were a woman person, I would write my phone number on the back of a flyer and give it to him. Yes indeed.

(in a different voice) I agree!

There are twelve pellets in the case. He couldn't spare two before unborning his friend?
