The Movies
Moderator: High Lord Tolkien
I love the movies but i do have some problems with them.
The major one is what he did to Faramir and the whole Osgiliath thing That made me so angry. I enjoyed TTT much better the second time when i was prepared for it.
Jackson's Balrog was brilliant - he was very clever over dealing with the whole wings controversy.
And Ian McKellan! He disappears into Gandalf. On his website he was asked about who decided Gandalf would do his winks, him, PJ or someone else. Ian's answer - Gandalf winked. love it!

I just heard that the soundtrack for "The Return of the King" will be released on Nov. 25th. Also, Annie Lennox will be doing the new "theme song" called "Into the West." Should be good
And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.
~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~
~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~
...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

lol! Yup, "Master and Commander" - I have one question about that. Why does the trailer use the theme music to the Sci Fi Channel miniseries "Children of Dune"?danlo wrote:It's coming! :S 2 bad Crowe's film: Master and Commander is coming out 3 days b4--I'd really like to see it, but I know I'll be SO excited 4 ROTK I'll 4get all about it. 8)
Return of the King looks absolutely awe-inspiring! I for one cannot wait to see a quarter of a million Orcs moving up en-masse to surround Minas Tirith, and the Ride of the Rohirrim! I've had a countdown to December 17th going since February this year!

Well, I wouldn't trust anyone but PJ to do it. I think it would be cool to go along with the LOTR movies. Have the whole story.

Heh, yeah I think I am... I really don't know. Maybe they should. I guess I'm not sure.danlo wrote:Are u a nartural contrarist DR? I think they should make it. But that's my opinion... and besides once it's this far it's usually already in the developement stage so DR u might get it whether u want to or not. And y do u care anyway u can always choose not to watch it.

NOT having the Hobbit would be very disappointing. We all (should) know that the Hobbit sets up the tale of LOTR so to better familiarize ourselves with Middle Earth, Hobbits, Wizards, Elves, Orcs and everything else.
Think upon this. The ROTK had great battle scenes.
In the Hobbit there's the "Battle of FIVE Armies"... imagine just how Awesome that scene would be.
I'm very curious to see how Smaug will be handled in this day and age of fantastic CGI.
