I was thinking more of the Paths of the Dead scenes Darth_Katie Send a noteboard - 11/07/2011 02:20:43 AM
"You can’t argue with the films’ success, but had it been me, I would have focused less on the effects and more on the characterisations.

“I’d have allowed the secondary characters to speak more and not be so focused on the heroes. There was more balance in the way that all the races of Middle-earth were presented in the first one. It was more about the relationships… That’s just my personal taste.”

I am not sure how he would have filmed the battle for Minas Tirith with less effects. But then again it's his personal taste and I am glad I disagree with the man here ;)


I thought those could have been a lot better done; they ended up kind of hokey I thought. That said, Return of the King is still one of my very favorite films ever.
Insert theme music here.

True enough, if FotR is the best movie of the three by miles, it's in part because of the book. Legolas - 11/07/2011 07:01:07 PM 593 Views
