Nolan should be ashamed of himself.

So if I posted a thread that said "Peter Jackson should be ashamed of himself" (For ROTK) or "Steven Spielberg should be ashamed of himself" (for Last Crusade) would you defend me with the same passion that you are defending the OP? I highly doubt it you two faced hypocrite bitch.
I couldn't care less what the academy thinks, they don't dictate the opinions of billions of people, I know you think they do but they don't. Just because the academy liked a movie that in no way proves that it is somehow superior to another film. I know you believe this because you gave Platoon and Titanic horrible ratings and I would really be surprised if you preferred Shakespeare in Love over Saving Private Ryan or Forrest Gump over Pulp Fiction. Get the f-ck over it, the academy has gotten it wrong on countless occasions.
Saying Nolan should be ashamed is an idiotic comment, I know you don't like his films but they were very successful and got overwhelming praise from film critics, Deal with it bitch.
Show me a film series that would be more qualifying of that statement.
Star Wars and The Godfather. TDK would have better reviews if more people understood it. The series can't be universally acclaimed if some people don't like it and your own sources prove that some people don't like it.
So you aren't going to answer the question about Saruman's death, I'm just curious, were you let down at all that one of the greatest villains ever wasn't even given a proper sendoff??? They actually filmed a death scene that was pretty decent and it was cut for time!!! All they had to do was cut one of the bajillion endings or Arwen's stupid subplot.
There is nothing intelligent about the world that Tolkein created and either way we are not debating the books we are debating the movies. The LOTR books were 10X better than the movies. There is no underlying theme or symbolism in LOTR, its just a fun fantasy adventure about having to throw a piece of jewelry in a volcano. TDK is a complex, character driven story filled with symbolism. You keep picking up on something new every time you watch it and that is what I love about it. LOTR you get everything there is to get the first time you watch it, it doesn't reward the viewer with repeated viewings. Plus the action sequences in TDK are far more believable, LOTR's battle sequences were completely over the top and unrealistic. That doesn't make them bad, I actually loved the Battle of Helms Deep (Minas Tirith on the other hand was a massive let down).

spencer if you are actually trying to have a serious conversation with Wallace you are wasting your time, he saw the movie once, didn't understand it and now he is on a never-ending menstrual cycle where all he does is bitch and moan about it. Whether you like the movie or not Nolan did create quite possibly the greatest trilogy ever and has NOTHING to be ashamed of.

So.everyone should just love TDKR and move on??
Come on man. There are those who have a negative opinion of the film. The least you can do is not lump yourself anywhere close to someone like Hippo Boy and act like the only way anyone has a working brain is if they like the movie.
You're better than that -

They don't have to answer to you. If they don't like it, what do you care?? Why do they need to provide a reason that you agree with??
It's not like anyone is demanding that you explain why you like it, disagreeing with you, and then condescending to you as if you're some type of half wit knuckle dragger. -

What good would it do? I have spoon fed to you on countless occasions what makes TDKR great and you just don't want to hear it. If you didn't understand it the first time around then it must be a horrible film.

Im very familiar with your OPINION. You've posted it on countless times and proclaimed it as honest to goodness FACT. I have zero interest in being spoon fed your opinion. You're free to it, but Im not interested.
