Okay - I have a theory
Posted By: Jillybean <jbeangotmuse@yahoo.co.uk>Date: 11/18/04 4:58 p.m.

In Response To: Re: Ooooooooooh DISAGREE!!!!! (some spoilers) (Pico)

I don't like explaining my hypothesis before I've confirmed them, but I'm willing to bet that the Empire Strikes Back is not Ducain's favourite Star Wars film. Nor is the Two Towers his favourite Lord of the Rings.

I love the middle in trilogies. It always has the most character development and the most . . . subtlety . . . for want of a better word. A good bridge has a special something, and Halo 2 just had it! Like Empire and TTT, you were more concerned with what Miranda was feeling when she saw the Halo, than what you were going to fight next.

However, it has been made known to me that I'm not always with the majority in this. I think it says a lot about people when they say the like 1, 2 or 3.

Halo/ A New Hope/ Fellowship etc - These people are adrenaline junkies. They love getting hooked on things, learning everything new and dissecting it.

Halo 2/ Empire Strikes Back/ The Two Towers etc - These are people people. They want to get down and dirty with what's going on, and especially to get attention ... that might just be me.

???/ Return of the Jedi/ Return of the King etc - These people like to have everything sorted. Control freaks. Loose ends bug them.

Now - what do yout hink? I'd be interested to know how many people feel they fall into these categories.
