Review of Ringers: Lord of the Fans (2005) by Corey H — 19 Oct 2010

Trekkies focused on Trekkies (or Trekkers) while Ringers focuses on the history and background behind the books' translations in other media. It is interesting and I did learn knew things. However, this film panders to the egos of Peter Jackson and every person involved with the films.

We've all sung their praises before. It gets a bit redundant and self important when we're told how amazing the movies are for nearly half the film. I wanted to see more of the fans that the documentary is named after and less of Jackson's cast and crew patting themselves on the back.
