Get your geek on folks!!! Has anyone seen it - I saw it last night and was blown away - easily the best film in the trilogy, except for the last 5 minutes there was literally not a second of wasted footage...
-
see it tomorrow, but just got a review from a guy in my office who went yesterday, sounds fantastic
-
Seeing it tonight.
-
Save your money for Bad Santa.

I'm not sure about sitting for 3 1/2 hours in a completely sold-out theater with this mutant death flu going around, so I'm gonna wait a month or two, and have also curtailed my habit of licking door knobs.
Furthermore I hear that the PS2 game related to this movie is quite decent (Santa: hint hint)

C'mon! Don't fall prey to all this media flu hype! Jeez, next thing you know you'll be wearing one of those surgeon's masks everywhere like some kind of paranoid freak!

I believe the rings hype...I loved the first two. But Americans are turning into a bunch of paranoid wackos and all this flu hype is just another example. Same with sars.
Guess how many sars deaths there have been in the US?

i'm almost as excited at seeing the return of the king tommorrow night as i am about harry potter,
oooh i can't wait for harry potter..........

my manager is taking my entire group to see it at 3pm today...i'm trying to figure out how to get out of going...i've not seen/read the first 2 movies/books...so i'm a bit worried i'm going to be completely bored
plus, i can't sit still for longer than an hour..i'm going to have to get up and take a few laps around the theater to make it through
ps, i did enjoy Bad Santa...worth the bucks
-
I saw it last night...actually this morning - just a weird situation...leaving the movies @ 3:30 a.m.
You're gonna like it. I preferred the Two Towers, as I did the novels way back when, but I don't mean to take anything away from this one - it's an amazing visual treat.

Hah! Not really into that stuff anymore.
I'm sure my mormon boss would love it if i showed up with a bag o' weed.
actually, i've just volunteered myself to reinstall some software in our test environment, so maybe that'll take me a while and i'll have an excuse not to go.
-
Gosh Malo, a Mormon boss who takes everyone to Lord of the Rings? I'll never complain about my bosses ever again.

yeah, pretty harsh

saw it today, great film, then i walked into bad santa what a shite film that is.
-
hey Bungle, are you coming on Monday. I want my CDs. I'll let you shag me missus if I can watch, and get the cds back.
-
is it set for monday? i would love to give you your cds, boy did i hate them, sorry.
-
i just saw it, and loved it, was going to sneek into bad santa but have shit load of homework....
awesome but, i prefer two towers......the end was kinda crappy.......touchy crap.

You hated the decemberists? I am weeping for you now.
What else did you get.
It is set for Monday. You should come along.
-
decemberists was the biggest piece of crap, the guy cannot sing, effing awful i managed to listen to 7 tracks before throwing it out my car window, dont worry i picked the cd up on my way home.
-
Well Markie, remember that this is from a guy who likes Heather Nova...

i used to like heather nova but her last two cds were crap, so now its leona naess.
-
I can't say that I disagree with you about the Decemberists. They are a band I wanted to like, but you're right, his voice is annoying.

-
same style but very good were THE BAND OF HOLY JOY, manic, magic and majestic was their finest cd, what the moon saw was the stand out track.
-
The Return of the King = brilliant
I loved every minute of it.
-
thought the movie was excellent despite the awkward choices and cringeworthy frodo moments near the end
-
yeah, for me I could have done without the last few endings - my perfect ending would have been the camera slowing panning away from the top of Minas Tirith....
-
Originally posted by brennser:

that would have been good, even what they had would have been better without the long fade to blacks
-
freaking losers!
-
I'm crushed - I'll never be able to post on this board again after such a withering put down...
-
me too... i've enjoyed the movies and haven't even read the books. the extended version of two towers is a great movie can't wait until sunday to see the last installment.
-
I've only seen pt.1. of Lord. Feebles was better, IMHO.
I'm afraid I have a prior commitment to viddy all of the Harry Potter product. I have neither the time, nor the bladder-wall muscles for both franchises(Whatever happened to intermissions?). Sorry...

Given the choice between LOTR & Harry Potter and you choose Harry Potter?!?!?!? What gives?

i understand where you're coming from - when you're 15 it's probably cool to rail against such things.
now go back and 'rock out' with your evanescence or blink cds, you rebel

I don't think they are stuck

Oh you are right. The post count on this board is different than on the Fulks board. There it numbers each of your posts, here your total posts get updated each time you add a post.

well you don't spend your life on a message board but you came back to see what people on a message board said, so you are a loser
you are funny, you post on a message board about how posting on a message board makes somebody a loser, or maybe you are just a loser
or better yet, you obviously read the message board, and don't post, which means you are definitely a loser

Forget that question. Although his spelling skills are suspect, flawd seems to have mastered point and right-click. Plus, he's funny!
Happy freaking non-denominational holiday season everyone. Can't wait for my 11 days in a row out of this hell-hole office!

that was genius. i feel inferior in your message board world. i bow to your superior intelligence. an attribute undoubtedly gained through extensive sessions of playstation, magic the gathering and late night chat rooms. give yourself a pat on the back. you've earned it!

Poor trowe. Now that 8th grade is out for the holidays he has to stay at home all day with nothing to do but hang out on this board with us losers.

I think perhaps if a person spends so much time on a chatboard that it ends up being detrimental to their work production, or ends up usurping all other potential for a social life, or ends up being the place where they devote much of their emotions and energy, then perhaps they need to step back and put less priority on their online life.
I don't think that posting on a chatboard necessarily makes one a "loser". Putting too much priority on it could possibly lead to "loser" qualities.

i bow for no man. or over exposed fim makers. but, i have grown weary of the judgemental nature of this message board. do not lose hope. the final star wars is surely on it's way.

excuse me while i point out the fact that you started the name calling, so you get what you give.... and please i couldn't bear to watch the travesity called the second star wars film... horrible acting, special effects, and story. george lucas "borrowed" all his best ideas at least peter jackson was using material from what many people consider classic literature. go find some sum 41 bbs to join...

art school has served you well. you are a bad speller, presumptuous and apparently a snob. your insolence will be met with a burlap bag and reeds...

I thought the second Star Wars flick was alright. Haven't seen any of the LOTR movies, though.
