minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•6 months agoIt’s a phenomenal movie with lots of actually reasonable depictions of sailing in the era.
minus-square@Treczokslink5•6 months agoI would have loved a sequel, too. That movie would probably have done better if it had not have to compete to The Return of the King that year.
minus-square@Demonmarinerlink4•6 months agoIt was a great try, visually stunning and true to the overall feel of the book, but it didn’t have a very cohesive story. They tried to cover too much ground. It would have been better if they had just stuck to the first book.
