Hey, Chris, you know what I just got? That box set of Lord of the Rings. It's awesome.
Yeah! But you remember the giant eagle they rode in the first one that then rescues them at the end of the 3rd one?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, why didn't they just fly the eagle to Mordor instead of spending 3 movies walking there?
Well, that's not what it's about, Chris. It's about the quest.
I'm not arguing that with you. I'm just saying there's a hole in the story.
Did you like the movie?
Well, that's not the point.
Did you like the movie?
Of course. I love the movie. But look. I'm no writer. But if a fat kid like me with one finger up his nose is bumped by it, you'd think someone would've caught it.
So, you didn't like the eagle?
No, I did. The eagle was majestic and beautiful, but sometimes you have to sacrifice spectacle for a coherent storyline.
Oh. Have you ever seen Krull?
No.
Yeah, you don't need to see Krull.
