Guest WebsterUno Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 Ok, yeah, I can see why you got a lil bored. Shit doesnt pop off until a lil after that. There are no huge battle scenes, like in part 2. Except where they fight off a bunch of Orcs in the end of the first part. That part is dope!

the_gooch Posted November 5, 2003 Author Share Posted November 5, 2003 the extend version of the fellowship of the ring was much better than the initial release, so much was left out that explained certain things in the 2 towers. it is such a better version, so much that i cant watch the original after seeing it. i cant wait to pick up the extended 2 towers on november 18th.

StIdesChurch Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 the lotr movies are amazing, and so are the books. the only part that bothers me about the transition to the movies is in second movie, after frodo is captured by faramir and the gondor cats. they go down to osgiliath (i think) and the ringwraith on the flying beast comes down real close to frodo. someone shoots the beast in the side with an arrow, and it flies away, hurt or something. i know im super-nitpicking, but this didnt happen in the book, and these wraiths are supposed to be super-badass-nearly-invinsible... and one stinkin arrow is going to scare that bitch away??? just always bugged me. yeah, and that "club zion" rave scene in the second matrix was straight retarded. the fucking dancing lasted like 10 minutes.

Guest WebsterUno Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 yeah, I heard they cut out alot of stuff to try to cram it all in. I see no purpose for love scenes in movies. Oh and Ill sign the petition, even though it wont affect me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StIdesChurch Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 yeah, forgot about that aragorn scene. arwen didnt fight in the book, i read they made her badass in the movie so it wasnt sexist or whatever, since that rohan princess chick doesnt show up early. but there was romance between them, at least by the 3rd book. yeah im a super nerd.

CAPiTA Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 ¡OWNED! Yours truly has just scored a ticket to Trilogy Tuesday at face value . I'm so pumped to get my nerd on its unreal. These shits is going for like $150-$200 in my area and I just got one for $25. In Seattle, like everywhere else but on a much larger scale, scalpers bought up all the tickets and they're going for $500-$1000 on Ebay. This is all becuase the goons at New Line didn't put a limit on the # of tickets a person could buy, and only gave theaters a 3 day notice before the selling began. This made it so only people lucky enough to hear about it, and all the scalpers who watch this shit like a hawk knew what was going on. As much as I love New Line, they really fucked up on this one.

Fugazi Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Originally posted by onesecondple you read the silmarilion? i cant get through it, she's a tough one Start with reading the good chapters, like Of Beren and Luthien (probably the best story in the book) and Of the ruin of Doriath. If you start at the front of the book you'll probably get dismayed by the Ainulindale and Valanquenta, which are basically Tolkien's version of the creation story...
