Not so.
The world is usually spelled “orc” . . The only time I’ve seen the word spelled “ork” is in Warhammer.[/quote]
I was referrencing the Warhammer 40k race most associated with “more dakka,” what with it being a movie about modern-day Spess Meh-rhines.
And furthermore, despite Tolkien’s contributions to literature and society as a whole, and with all respect due both he for his works and you for your insane physique/giga-nerd accomplishments, fuck LotR. I have never been made to feel so unconcerned for a character’s or, in this case, a cast’s fate. At no point did I feel the possibility of the ring not making it to Mount Doom. Evil felt destined to lose, the world felt destined to return to piece. I finished the series only because of the comparison of Tolkien’s importance to that of the Bard. It was the rice cake of my literary diet.
Also, regarding the Experience, yes, I really keep a pair of sai in my gym bag.[/quote]
You make a fair point–while I’m personally incapable of looking at LotR objectively because of my emotional attachment to the books, I can see some validity there.
However, it’s one of those things where you can’t judge it against all of the other fantasy books that have been written which may fall in with your own tastes, specifically because it’s quite arguable because that all such works would not have been written or published if not for LotR.
Having said that, I certainly enjoy other fantasy stories quite a bit more than I enjoy re-reading LotR from time to time, but almost no-one comes close in terms of the sheer scope of the man’s ability to write and convey messages with a sense of weight.
On another note, the expendables looks awesome.

If I eat steak and have sex after the movie I will implode from sheer manliness.
