SeeKer Posted December 15, 2012 We agreed to disagree. The theologists among us believed that of the two tales that pi told the one that was most fantastic equaled religion while the logical (read cannibal) one equaled reason. The atheist just believed it proved Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest so its no suprise we didn't come to a consensus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chubacka Posted December 15, 2012 ^ that's a common interpretation of life of Pi, though it's hard to say a piece if fiction can prove anything except the views of the author and those who interpret it's meaning. Have you seen the film, looking forward to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N.O.R.F Posted December 15, 2012 Doubt it will be anywhere near as good as LOTR (which wasn't as good as the book or the manga). It looks like another easy buck maker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haatu Posted December 15, 2012 Just saw it a couple of hours ago. Bitterly disappointing. I can't believe I waited a whole year for that. This could be due to the fact that I've read the book but who knows. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted December 16, 2012 ^Its only part I, two more are coming in 2013 and 2014, which will cover the entire book. Gollum stole the show, no question about it, the entire 15 min he was on the screen cracked me up, you actually start rooting for him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haatu Posted December 16, 2012 ^Yh I guess the beginning of the book wasn't that interesting anyway. It stopped just when things started to get better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If watching it in the theatre, watch it in 3D cause some scenes are reminiscent of Avatar but otherwise too long for my liking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
