I feel similarly to Al. 8) I've now seen the film twice :) and I certainly intend to see it at least twice more. :). Whilst I enjoy it, moments of PJ-silliness notwithstanding, it does not have the same immersive impact on me that PJ's LotR did. The experience is not nearly so emotional, not by a l...

Just got back from seeing it. :shock: Ang Lee did a good job translating it and my eyes are full of eye candy. Between Pi, Lincoln and Skyfall, I'm having a great few weeks of movie viewing and I still have The Hobbit to go. Sadly I haven't seen the last Twilight movie .....but I haven't seen any of...

Holy Guacamole Batman...I am so excited. I have no idea how I am ever going to make it through the next months/years...I am so ready for a good movie. I've been so disappointed in the stuff coming out lately (though I haven't seen the last HP yet). Of course I've been somewhat disappointed since RoT...

The gun advocates will counter with if there had been a person with a gun they could have taken the guy out and not as many would have died.

It's just sad, and hopefully a wake up call to end the hateful retoric and a beginning to adult conversation.

Ooooh, Smaug would be very cool to have! (I don't have much--a Minas Tirith model, the Evenstar pendant, a Lothlórien leaf brooch, and a small Legolas/Gimli on horse statue. And a few more odds and ends besides. I do have the One Ring, though. Mwahahaha!) And please tell me you all have seen the Bi...

That Martin Freeman fellow looks very convincingly Bilboish, to me.

Agreed about Martin,



And some of us like scraggly types...as long as they are taller...I much perfer Gondorians or men of the Rohirrim

I'm excited, should be fun. I am looking forward to the speculation and guessing and gossiping of what is going to happen, and what really happens. However, I am not so much into these two films as I was the LoTR....mostly because my own life has taken such a change that I am busy with it as of late...

Too much going on at the moment to keep up with. Just go to TORNs front page and keep hitting refresh all day.

Sometimes you have to let someting good fall apart so something better can fall together. This might be a blessing in disguise. I hate to see it not filmed in NZ but I am sure it will be good regardless.

I have to agree with Ax on this. I used to joke about the prequels of LOTR i.e. The Hobbit(s) taking the same time as the SW's stuff...20 plus years. I was just joking, now it looks like that might actually be coming true. :(

I have it on good authority that it's Orc #135356 who is making the cameo. I'm so excited, he was my favorite Orc. All his wonderful Orciness...the long stragly unwashed hair, the scragly teeth, the warts on his forehead...what an Orc. Yeah well I give up on typing today and spelling stuff right wit...
