发帖数: 157 | 1 前面闲话LOR的这位朋友真是很有耐心啊，把那么晦涩的一本书看完了。
想来定是一个LOR的big fan。：）记得那书的语言有点古英语的味道。
时不时就有古怪单词拦路。
在看过第一部后，我也算小半个fan，因为电影没有结尾，
特想知道他们在河边失散后各人的命运都怎样。
立马去书店买了the twin towers。不过就没坚持看完，大概看到Aragorn到白衣
骑士的王国去求助那儿，现在更是懒的看书了， 因为马上就可以看到电影了。
第一部里其实有很多很棒的地方，以下提到的只不过是我印象比较深的几个。
这几个镜头是：
1，frado第一次见到Aragorn--the strider，那个城阴森恐怖，Aragorn的身影
时隐时现，是敌是友难以分辨。
2。Erwen 骑马过河，把暗黑骑士挡在河对岸，那场追杀十分惊险，Liv Tyler长发飘飘，
白衣胜雪，眉眼体态很有出尘之意。elf国王居住的那个城真是美仑美奂。好象是电脑绘
画
或是缩小了的模型。
3。徒中经过古森林，景象之奇美也是令人惊叹。
Kate Blanchet演的那个女王集仙气，邪气与霸气于一身。是为数不多的女性角色里令人
难忘的 |

发帖数: 29 | 2 此片虽然与LOR之类相比还有不少差距，但是成本上的差距也很大。剧本本身就不怎么样
，决不是像媒体所说的构思了10多年；导演何平对此类电影也还没有经验，所以只能拍成
这样了。说实话，有的电影技术的应用，如摄影等，我感觉还不如武士，当然武士剧本更
差。
我们应该看到的是此片的意义。模仿好莱坞，拍娱乐片是振兴我国影业的出路，毕竟观众
是市场经济下电影发展的根本。 在现在这样一个起步阶段，能拍成这样已经很不错了。
另外，此片对增进民族感也不错，文化市场不要老是被宣扬西方和日韩文化的东西所占据
，弄得连自己祖先的东西都忘了，需要这样的片子来提提神。所以，希望以后这样的娱乐
片越来越多，艺术电影暂且交给第六代来搞吧。
对电影本身，我没什么要说的，因为我不是很喜欢娱乐片的人。
至于媒体吹捧，我也能理解，为了市场嘛。但是“和你在一起“那样的片子，可别捧。当
时看媒体说此片在金鸡奖上收获不太多什么什么的，我还以为真受到不公正待遇。 看了
后感觉，给他奖已经是给陈面子了，这样的片子，还是少点吧。陈要是再老出这样的片子
，还是退了算了吧。
还有几个错误我需要更正你一下，LOR不说人用的多，它的千军万马基本都 |

发帖数: 866 | 3 最近几部大片看了过后都有点小失望，可能是吹得太厉害了，期望太高。2012，觉得故
事情节不如the day after tomorrow；风声，情节有点幼稚；Avatar，看之前有人说情
节很一般，主要是感官刺激，觉得是这个道理。
IMAX 3D确实是我看过的最好的3D，提前半个小时去排队，前面都已经排了100多号人了
，千万不要低估老美的排队能力，入场的时候还有无数不是拿IMAX票的人被踢出去//狂
汗，老美居然是看哪儿队长就往哪儿排。。。
剧情真的很一般，不知道为什么，看到男主角振臂高呼“This is our land“的时候，
我差点笑出声来。。。 视角效果确实很不错，很创新，至少以前没人拍过这样的。不
过觉得跟Titanic和Lord of Ring还是无法比，一是很难比，二是缺少touching的地方
，看了回来正好TNT在放LOR攻城堡那段，感觉还是喜欢LOR，大场面和小细节，百看不
厌。
总之就是一种看完了就忘了的感觉。很喜欢里面人物的各种化妆，造型，配饰，美工。
那个祭祀的场面很震撼，特别喜欢他们在那儿晃啊晃啊。感觉最成功的就是能把
fantasy拍得这么好；失败的地 |

发帖数: 6122 | 4 比如bonnie and clyde，现在看起来土里土气的，比如里面的汽车追逐情节和镜头，但
是bonnie and clyde开创了gangster moive的先河，而教父更是把gangster movie里面
的城市黑手党和城市犯罪片推到了一个后人都必须模仿的高峰，
又如LOR，今后肯定有很多魔幻电影不比他差，但是作为第一部成功大规模使用特技的
魔幻电影，影史排名上必定有LOR。
而gone with wind,arab's lawrence，则是开启好莱坞大制作商业大片的时代。
这好比做科学，你要是能开创一个新的研究领域，你就是老大，就有历史地位，
在我看来，forret gump, shawshank redemption，活着，霸王之类，都算不上抢到山
头的经典电影。 |

发帖数: 355 | 9 楼主：
找个代课老师写个就可以了或者有博士学位的朋友都可以，没有问题，见过许多同学顺
利转学。要不要原来老板的LOR，要看新老板了，但是总有新老板不要以前老板LOR的。
转学这种事情其实新老板都基本清楚怎么回事。见过有老中学生GPA不到2申请转校成功
而且拿全奖，可以用原来的资料来重新申请。不建议给系里告等，因为没有很实实在在
的能拿出来的证据，是没有胜算的，时间精力都不划算。在这种事情上不要相信系主任
会为了你个普通学生而干掉自己的Faculty，除非这个学生有个好爹（比如一个名人，
学校的资助人等），在美国也一样拼爹，例子见的很多，不多讲了，或者系里就想赶跑
这个Faculty，而你妹妹正好是个工具。通常系主任作为校方，原则上是站在自己
Faculty的角度上的。楼主讲的事实，如果告的话，基本没有胜算。法律上的东西许多
听起来漂亮。
简单的方法，赶紧走人。就是申请OPT，先维持身份，同时找好学校，或者找工作，先
工作，环境的PHD其实就是一个鸡肋。继续读前好好想想，有没有必要。
还有一点就是，读PHD不是生活的唯一。读不了，也不见的这辈子就完了，读了也不见

发帖数: 438 | 12 可以申。
不知道你是申请什么科，如果是内科，因为申请人太多了，有个别地方只看前1000个申
请者。此外，申请得早，能显示出你对他们的热情。他们如果真正对你感兴趣，会给你
发信要第三封LOR的。更重要的是，虽然program开始接受申请的日期是9月2号(去年如
此)，但是真正开始筛选是在9月中旬以后逐渐开始。只要你的第三封LOR这个时候到达
，你的资料就算完整了。而且，10月初的时候，你还可以跟program写个follow up
letter，告诉他们你的资料完整了，询问一下你的申请情况，进一步显示出你对他们的
热情，顺便探探口风。

发帖数: 264 | 13 OK, just follow your suggestion. Totally 150 , still in budget.
Yes, I do have a lot of things to do. One of the pathologist attending want
me to draft LOR myself. Is there any service that can modify the LOR?

发帖数: 79 | 14 agree with clamchowder. You should apply as much as you can afford. For
pathology, even there are some restrictions posted on program's website, you
should still try it. With your background, you will do very well and get
many ivs.
For LOR, it is not bad for you to draft it by yourself. One thing I really
wanna tell ya from my experience: be personalized. A very generic LOR will
not help too much even it uses lots of good words.
Good Luck! |

发帖数: 1334 | 29 It's tough to get any strong letters from a very short observership. People
should plan ahead with longer observerships so the physicians can get to
know you better. As Dok suggested, when time comes only ask the people you
trust to write LORs for you. And "waiving the rights" is the best way to go
(some letter writers could still send you a copy of the LORs). |
