I loved this movie, by far best movie I have seen all year, I might go see it a few more times in the theaters and buy a box set of the extended versions when it comes out. The battle scenes were incredible. The movie was very emotionally moving as well....I think my eyes even started to tear up, but don't tell anyone.

I heard that about the book but I never read them so I didn't know for sure. I was just anticipating it because the subject was touched upon a few times in TTT.

It was crazy to actually see it happen as it did though, I was like dayum!

I can't see it till next week becuase of my work schedule!!! :(

For some odd reason, I feel empty now. I dunno, ROTK rocked my world. But after the movie ended, it's like there is nothing else that is good to see. Maybe it was too good. I'm definately going to buy the box set when it comes out. ROTK is supposed to be 4.5 hours long.

I have hope that a Hobbit's tale will be made into a movie by Peter Jackson......That hope gets me through each day.
:)

I will go see that opening day if they make it.

OMG you have got too be kidding, that damn shit dragged on and on...that's where the academy awards will be lost...and another thing, what the hell happened to the talking dog? It's been 12 years since i read the books but i'm pretty sure there was a talking dog...3.5 hours and they couldn't fit that damn dog in there, christ that all i wanted too see.

Re: Re: WOW!!!
 

There is a talking Dog in the Silmarillion . . but not in the LOTR series.

The talking dog (Cuan?) was the hound of one of the sons of Feanor that betrayed his master to help Beren and Luthien retrieve the jewel from the crown of Morgroth. Both Aragorn and Arwen are descendants of Luthien.

OMG - We just got back from seeing it and it was AWESOME! Loved every minute - it does not feel like 3.5 hours! I'm ready to go see it again, and again, and again!

Sounds like someone forgot his ritalin.:rolleyes:
Every other person agreed that the movie is well done that it does not feel like 3 1/2 hours. I guess that we are all wrong.;)
And what was Peter Jackson thinking when he left out talking dogs that never even appeared in the Lord of the Rings books?:rolleyes:

Re: Re: Re: WOW!!!
 

there was mention of it in the books, maybe not directly in the story...sorry if i didn't read the shit 10 times over right before the movie came out. BTW, have you gotten the elvish script off your head yet?

Re: Re: Re: Re: WOW!!!
 

Uh, nope, sorry, no mention of a talking dog in LOTR anywhere. Just what was mentioned earlier with Cuon.
Glad to see other people have read The Silmarillion, too! :D

So after the movie I am laying in bed talking to a sorority girl I know . . and you know how you start fading into sleep?

Well I started thinking that her Sorority Chapter was going to send a relief army to the aid of Gondor . . . Ahhh . . . good movie.

i saw the movie last night and it was way too long. they should have cut it down by an hour. that first hour just dragged on and on. the only great part of the movie was the huge battle at the end.

Heresy! :eek:
