Nice pics! I recognise all of those from the book, so I guess they're hitting it closer to the book this time!

oddguy · #63 08-30-2003, 10:18 PM

I'm bored, so here I go. Here's a LOTR joke I made up:

What do you call a female dear with affro?

Fro-doe! Frodo! Hahahahahahaha!

Okay, I'm done. Go back to your lives.

Wait....I promised more photos. Here they are!

I love lord of the rings the only thing i was really diapointed about the ents they are described cooler looking in the book.

My preciousss. Gollum rocks

oddguy · #65 08-30-2003, 10:42 PM

I love Gollum! Actually, I like Smeagol......Gollum is evil. Gollum/Smeagol was portrayed perfectly in TTT, which I now own on dvd! I'm so happy!

I hate it when that (almost always) happens. Lets hope they show the current films back to back when ROTK hits Aussie shores

If New Line wants to make more money they will.

i bought the dvd the other day but picked up the full screen instead of the wide screen version - no big deal - i plan on getting the extended version when it comes out in november - so far i'm very pleased with the film adaptation of such a huge story - i re-read it a few months ago and was surprised at how much i'd forgotten or maybe just didn't understand when i read it the first time ( about 30 years ago ) - from what i hear the final installment will be amazing - and yes i'm sure there will be all-day back to back screenings after return of the king hits theatres this winter

I am quite looking forward to seeing Shelob, in Return of the King.

GrigtheSlig · #70 08-31-2003, 04:21 AM

I want to see how Shelob acyually looks! That will be so exiting! I can't wait to see ROTK! There's so much that i'm looking forward to! I'm gonna go watch the 19 min preview of it!

Oddfan · #71 08-31-2003, 11:27 AM

I own it on dvd and i plan on getting the extended version when it comes out. the whole gollum/smeagol thing is weird he's like a skitso in a way, gollum is him after the ring and smeagol is what he was like before the ring.
he still rocks though.

Disgruntled Intern · #72 08-31-2003, 02:05 PM

Shelob is being based on the new zealand native Black Tunnelweb spider.

GrigtheSlig · #73 08-31-2003, 05:49 PM

Really! Could you show a pic of one of those?

Fez · #74 08-31-2003, 05:49 PM

i never really like LOTR, but when i saw the two towers the other day, i cant wait fot the nest one. Coming out sometime in December right!?

GrigtheSlig · #75 08-31-2003, 06:00 PM

Yeah, that's cool that you like it now! Have you seen the first one? You should really read the books too! They are great! The third movie is coming out Dec, 17th i think!

Fez · #76 08-31-2003, 06:26 PM

i saw the first one, i didnt like it which was what put me off the series.

oddguy · #77 08-31-2003, 06:40 PM

I love both of the movies!

I just watched something on TTT dvd, and Elijah Wood said that ROTK is better than the first two combined!

I can't wait to see it!

GrigtheSlig · #78 08-31-2003, 09:55 PM

I really hope that ROTK wins best Motion Picture! All the other ones were nominated, but didn't win. I want ROTK to win this one! I'd be so proud!

oddguy · #79 09-01-2003, 01:44 AM

The academy seems to always have their noses in the air and pick artsy films. I really want ROTK to win, but the Academy is a kinda unfair when it comes to giving awards to really good movies. This is funny, I haven't seen ROTK yet and I allready want it to win awards!:

Wow. We have native spiders?

oddguy · #81 09-01-2003, 03:15 AM

Apparently you do.

fleech · #82 09-01-2003, 03:42 AM

according to steve irwin there are some pretty nasty little spiders down under; and they can be very naughty if you make 'em grumpy! . . .

GrigtheSlig · #83 09-01-2003, 04:39 AM

Sounds good to me! Shelob will be so cool looking! I want it to come out now! DARNIT!

Here it is. This is the best pic I could get in a simple image search.

Oddfan · #85 09-01-2003, 10:19 AM

that thing is big and i have a feeling shelob will be too!

oddguy · #86 09-01-2003, 04:37 PM

I am looking forward to see Shelob in action! I'm sure she doesn't look exactly like the black tunnelweb. Weta probably made it look scarier!

That's in Aussie. They do have some harsh ones.
The reason I was surprised about the spider is we don't really have any dangerous animals here.
