Last Year: “The Lord of the Rings”; This Year: “Kill Bill: Vol. 2″

We’ve got nothing against “The Lord of the
Rings,” but let’s face it: It’s over. Literally.
It’s done. Let’s all accept it and move on. Sure, it
was great while it lasted, but the first step toward acceptance is
breaking out of denial. On the other hand, “Kill Bill: Vol.
2″ opens in April, a sequel we haven’t seen to a story
of which we don’t know the ending. Plus, after watching the
Bride (Uma Thurman) defeat the Crazy 88, she could probably take
the Fellowship pretty easily. Let’s put it this way: If
J.R.R. Tolkien had written the Bride, that ring would have been
destroyed a lot faster. Somewhere Quentin Tarantino curses his
approval.
