Re: On a vaguely related note, Viggo Mortensen makes so very true comments about the LotR movies: ironclad Send a noteboard - 10/07/2011 09:44:13 PM

"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 ;)

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.

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 452 Views
