    Peter Jackson has said Casting LOTR was super important because he didn't want known actors and big block buster attention being focused on the characters. In doing so it would ruin the whole atmosphere of the film and detract form the characters themselves and not allow the audience to fully believe what we were seeing on screen. So hats off to Russel for picking up the sublet silence PJ gave him as his way of saying a polite no thank you.

    Like many here I think Master and Commander was a brilliant movie with fantastic performances all around.

A wonderfully subtle performance.

He always makes his roles better than they actually are, but he should've played the villain, and Christian Bale the anti-hero. Ben Foster's character, in the end, stole the show. Also these weird interactions of Bale /Crowe were his son is sick and... cracks up.

    When I’m feeling wrung-out and kind of low, I put on my favorite “comfort film”, “Master and Commander”. It is fantastic It lifts me out of the doldrums (no pun intended). It is endlessly fascinating and with each viewing and without fail, I find a new detail or nuance I didn’t catch before. What could be better?

    Master and Commander remains the most underrated movie of all time. Ever. The only criticism would be things like they say 'shoot' in the RN instead of 'fire.' Fire means something different on a wooden ship. You're reduced to nitpicking to find anything wrong with that film, it was FANTASTIC.

    The actual truth of gladiators and how much closer they were to professional wrestlers than duelists to the death (most of the time) is very interesting to get into. The way they were split into different "classes" based on their body type and given specific kinds of gear, and matched up to each other very specific ways. Very RPG like in a way. Plus the fact the best known ones were essentially larger than life celebrities, endorsements, all that stuff.
