I fell asleep. I'm no filmmaker, but I'm pretty sure your action scenes aren't meant to put people to sleep. Jackson just has terrible judgement about tension and action. Look at the brontosaurus scene in King Kong - 4 minutes of dinosaurs tumbling down a ravine. Surely any director with taste would recognize that a scene like that would have more impact if it was 2 minutes. But no, Jackson has a kind of fetish for kinetic overload - must show more stuff flying all over the screen, more stuff, more stuff, more stuff...
