Ricoh Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Even though they were from Comics not books the 2 biggest Turkeys have got to be: (1) Howard the Duck (2) Judge Dread Both great in comix, crap films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Barbour_Bairn Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Off thread a bit but how bad was Street Fighter and then Mortal Kombat?!! If it wasn't for Kylie in little shorts it would have been the worst film ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guinness_Alan Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I can't think of 5 at the moment, I'm still ranting about how different the Lord of the Rings films were from the books! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricoh Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I can't think of 5 at the moment, I'm still ranting about how different the Lord of the Rings films were from the books! Funnily enough I have always thought that a frontal lobotomy was required to get all the way through Lord Of the Rings the book. I have managed to sit through the films, but am still unsure as to what all the fuss was about. Childish, racist, prictable- all spring to mind.

Gordon EF Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Racist! Care to explain? I think he saw the same progrma I saw, suggesting that the whole East/West, Good/Evil thing was racist. The Lor5d of the Rings are excellent books and are excellent adaptations, if you say otherwise,, I call you a fool!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
