FOURTH???? FOURTH!!!! Fourth!, OK, Ben Hur better the Lord Of The Rings?!, Ahhhh, maybe. But Lawrence of Arabis and Star Wars Trilogy???, I don’t think so. (Elijah wont like me for saying LOTR is better then Star Wars. He’s a big Star Wars fan. Sorry Eli!). But, really, I think Lord Of The Rings Trilogy is a lot better then Star wars Trilogy. I like the Star wars Trilogy also, but not as much as I do Lord Of The Rings Trilogy ^_~.
They don’t know what they’re talking about. For the REAL winners…there was a two-way tie between LOTR and SW. Lord of the Rings?? FOURTH? That’s sad. Star Wars, THIRD!?!?! that’s just stupid.
You have to give Lawerence of Arabia and Ben-Hur their due. Ben-Hur was made before LOTR was even written! I can imagine that Tolkien probably saw Ben-Hur in theaters! The only thing that Star Wars has as a movie over LOTR is longevity. Thirty years after it came out, it’s still a popular icon and has a huge fan base. If the LOTR movies are still popular 30 years from now, then that list will change.
at least Titanic didn’t beat LOTR, that’s all I care about! 🙂
The article said someting like, “Peter Jackson shows that computer grapics can work as well as the ‘cast of thousands’ approach.” LotR had a cast of thousands!
No! NO! What is the world coming to?? FOURTH??
Okay, those other ones deserve respect, but LOTR in FOURTH? My personal opinion is that fourth place is far to low on the list for Lord of the Rings. I am glad that LotR is on the list, or else something is wrong! lol
it’s good, very very good!
wow, that’s great! not that I am surprised though, the Lord of the Rings deserve it all! Yay!
