Is This Impressive? Or Sad?

I liked the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Quite a bit, actually. I loved the books as a child and still read them now and again today. Tolkien set the gold standard for creating a living, breathing fantasy world. And Peter Jackson did an amazing job bringing that to the big screen.


That said...I don't like it so much that I would recreate Minas Tirith in matchstick form.



Look, I appreciate the hard work that must have gone into this. But think of all the other things Acton could be doing with his life right now. Like kissing a girl or seeing the sun. As opposed to buying out all the Diamond toothpicks in a 30 mile radius to recreate a mythical city.

Let's look at this from a different angle - maybe, just maybe this is therapy for someone who would otherwise be a serial killer?
