xkcd Movie Graphs

Randall Munroe of xkcd has posted intricate movie graphs that help explain the sequence of characters for those who have trouble figuring out what went on over a long narrative. The most helpful is the largest graph, which deals with the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Grouping of lines shows which characters are together over time. There are also graphs for the original Star Wars trilogy, Jurassic Park, 12 Angry Men, and Primer.

Only a small portion of the LOTR graph is shown here. Link -via reddit

I'm so glad I didn't listen to the versions with music. It was gut wrenching enough as a silent movie. But ultimately, thankfully, mom and kids are fine. They are enormously sweet creatures.

I fail to see why the Neatorama crew continues to post about animals suffering for our entertainment. Sure, they're fine at the end. But still, seems wrong to find enjoyment in baby ducks being tossed around whether its by wind or people.

Its funny, that everyone thinks that they are fine in the end. Just cause the video is over doesn't mean everyone lived happily ever after. Their's a life after the cameras stop rolling. It was still windy outside, they were still in an open courtyard. There are still duckling crushing cars and buses rolling down the nearby road.

I agree with peachiekeen and cthewheeler.
I really have lost a lot of respect for Neatorama. You used to have awesome articles, now it seems that you're grabbing at straws for something to post.
