I caught an episode that had to be one of the worst (a season opener that featured lots of voiceover - just dreadful unless you knew what went on before). I gave the (...)

| (...) The problem LOTR, Braveheart and other films is that they are not suitable for Lego, and I don't mean the Lego Company, I'm talking about us. TLC can make Orcs, Cavalry (Riders of Rohan) troops (Gondor, Irish, Scots, English men-at-arms), etc. (...) (21 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

As for the trend, you need to look back to see how TV and media-driven entertainment supplanted other forms of occupying our time over the last 50 years, and how that transformed us into a culture of (...)

| (...) Can I go off on a bit of a rant here (not against Lenny, just in general)? When the heck did our society become so centered on movies?!?!?! Lord of the Rings has been voted the best book of the 20th century, and it's been out for 50+ years. (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

I argue that they *have* in fact taken such a role: [LEGOSet 4101] Now, they still have to make money so they still may have to pander elsewhere for a while, but DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE the importance of Designer.

I know that this is an old issue, but it would be nice if TLG took a role as industry leader and worked against the I-want-everything-spoon-fed-now attitude running rampant through the child-marketing industries. Instead, TLG is simply playing (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Thanks Lenny! My moc's tend to have a lot of order, which is not always a good thing with medieval buildings. I think that having many details offsets this. I am glad that you like the details. They were fun to do. Especially the mirror. Ben (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle)

For us, thats the prime reason to buy a set, but for most kid fans, it's playing (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
