Thank you for posting this. This is the first I have heard of the comparisons, which escaped me because I am not very familiar with Wagner's story line. I only knew some of the orchestral themes, so the comparison between the two was not evident to me.

It is very interesting to me how the wr on terror is often referenced to literature and mythology. It is almost like people know that this is an epic struggle, but they are afraid to say it directly. I find it fortunate that the Ring movies have been released at this time.

Anybody here ever see Excalibur?. It was actually the BEST of the King Arthur movies and uses Wagner theme music. It was on cable recently.
