I'm a dork. That's okay. My wife likes the dorky lovins.
On weekends when I actually don't have anything to do, this is the go-to flicks I like to put in first. I like to think of it a one big epic film instead of 3 separate movies, kinda like Band of Brothers. Now there's not much I can say that hasn't already been said a million times over except that I bet you didn't know there's a tabletop game based on it. You custom paint your own miniature models and it's at it's basis, a turn based strategy game. Check out Games Workshop online or in store at Stoneridge, Union Square and Oakridge Mall to name a few. Yes it's that place with the super geeks playin' with they little models but guess what.... I'm one of those super geeks. I don't play the game, but I like to paint the mini's
Enough of that. Dudes, even if you think you really don't like this type of fantasy shit, give it a try in HD and surround sound and it'll rival Black Hawk Down in 7.1 surround sound quality. You ain't even gotta really pat attention to the details if it ain't for you, just enjoy the ride. And girls, if you the fairy and elf lovin' type that's a large part of the story.
9 outta 10
Dwarves, elves, orcs, dragons and tree people, it's got all that. Just give it a try and check out the level of detail folks put into painting the models next time you at Stoneridge
