So far We Were Soldiers is the best picture we have seen this year. Signs was a bit thin, IMO.

Haven't seen TTT yet. The trailers make it seem like three hours of dark and violent battles, which is what I didn't like about LOTR.

Ping!

Thought, and hope, this movie receives some sort of recognition, but am doubtful.

Hollyweird doesn't seem to have a clue as to what goes beyond its borders.

...Thank you for your caring and support of the Best who gave all that they had for you and me...

Good heavens, if that is all you got out of FOTR, then please DON'T GO!!!

Say, while you're avoiding TTT, which you've so expertly summed up, I thought I might warn you away from other movies that would also be wastes of your time:

• Ben Hur — hours of chariot races; who needs it?
• The Quiet Man — hours of people talking in some foreign accent; who needs it?
• Any Move About Jesus or Biblical Themes — hours of outdoor shots, not one car or TV in sight; who needs it?
• Saving Private Ryan — hours of bright and bloody battles; who needs it?
• Sophie's Choice — hours of some gal with an accent; who needs it?
• Schindler's List — hours of mostly black and white shots of people who aren't even American; who needs it?
• Gone with the Wind — hours of medium-bright and bloody Civil War battles; who needs it?

Think of all the time I've saved you!
