  The most ridiculous escalation of events I have seen in a film in a while, it was great.

  Rating the original TV pilot

  I'm now 4 episodes in and I think Dale Cooper might be close to my favourite character in anything ever already.

  Not as bad as I was expecting, so that's a positive.

  The Lord of the Rings 1978

  Ambitious but overall quite poor. Weird and uncanny in a way that makes you question how much of that was intentional. The Two Towers parts were especially rushed and unsatisfying, given the creators weren't sure if they were going to be able to make any more.

  However I appreciate that some of the visual design inspired Peter Jackson's films. It even portrayed the Ringwraith in the initial encounter in a more interestingly unsettling way than the modern film.
