10/10, 100 per cent, five stars, “The must-see film of the year, you’ll love it”, A+, Outstanding, first class with honours, Black Belt ....

LOL, I love it! Is it just me, or is time actually slowing down?

I was more worried about Frodo losing his Ring than I was about my best man losing my wife’s on our wedding day.

That is a cute statement... I am not married, but I think I know the sentiment... I am gonna worry for a whole 'nother year about my Frodo!

No, you are right. Time is slowing down.

5 days, 12 hours, 40 minutes 33 seconds... 32 seconds, 31 seconds.... Yep! The seconds are taking at least 3 seconds!

My dreams started again last night. That helps!

This is my favorite of the three reviews, the others were a little too critical, I thought.

"The scale and brutality of the conflict that rages for the last hour of this film makes the opening forest battle in Gladiator look like a tear-up between the Ground Force team and some irate shoppers at a garden centre in the Cotswolds."

Vaughan has a way with words, for sure... :-D

"This is my favorite of the three reviews"

I agree, completely. He does have a way with words. Not bad for his first review!

In fact, if you add The Godfather trilogy, all five Star Wars films and Gone With The Wind together, then multiply them by Gandhi, you’re still not coming close to the epic quality, depth and attention to detail of this famous trilogy.

Just thought that this quote bore repeating. ;^)

Never seen Ghandi, though, so I was at loss to include that one too.
