Query: You must "Save vs. Boredom" before watching this

This ranks as the very first movie I ever had to stop watching about halfway through due to violent lack of interest. I love the fantasy genre, even some of the lesser B-films ("Hawk the Slayer" being a favorite), and was long ago a D&D; junkie, but this one could simply not hold my interest whatsoever. Boring, boring, boring... I wanted to like it, but it wasn't really gelling with my concept of what a D&D; film would be like. Heck, the old D&D; cartoon was better than this, and not as goofy.I've always felt that it was some sort of rush job, because the LOTR films were being made at that time and someone wanted to beat Peter Jackson to the goal line by releasing a mainstream fantasy film. But it makes absolutely NO SENSE how New Line could release this goblin filth, then shortly thereafter release the epic to end all epics The Lord of the Rings.
