You've perfectly summed up an issue I've had with virtually every Jackson movie (certainly all the RINGS movies, at any rate), but have never been able to articulate: for as "big" and "epic" as his movies are, he just cannot convey scale. Jim Emerson has often made a similar point about Christopher Nolan (which I agree with), but it applies to Jackson too: every shot is, "Here! Look at this! Isn't this cool? [Insert next shot.] Now look at this! Isn't that amazing?"j.whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00257330889365879414noreply@blogger.com
