Frodo failed....

The world of men will fall, and all will come to darkness, my city to ruin.

[Lavender Brown]

4. I'm having LOTR withdrawal

I got used to a new installment coming out around this time every year. This year.. no more. :(

[GRLMGC]

5. Oh, I know

Most of the movies coming out suck and that was what I looked forward to all year. What a burn :(

[Lavender Brown]

11. I know

The only thing I want to see is "The Aviator," and that's only out of morbid curiousity.

[Huckebein the Raven]

6. Isn't a special extended version of Return of the King supposed to be

coming out ?

[Lavender Brown]

9. I think so

but I don't even have a DVD player, so I'll miss out. :P

[RevolutionaryActs]

10. It is! On the 14th or the 15!!!!!!!! *screams like an N*sync fan*

[seemunkee]

20. ALL DAY LOTR PARTY

Inviting a group over to watch the extended version of all three in one sitting. Borrow the laptop projector from work and set up a big sheet as the screen and sit on our asses all day.

[RevolutionaryActs]

21. Oh you beotch! Can I come?????? PUHLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

LOL :D

[seemunkee]

22. Sure bring some chips

[RevolutionaryActs]

23. Chips and Salsa eh? Shouldn't it be themed? I think I will bring...

Gollum guacamole and chipsessssss.. precious. ;)

[RevolutionaryActs]

7. Well as Tolkien said:

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

[fryguy]

12. did he say that?

I thought it was Lord Acton in the 1880s...before Tolkien was alive...

[RevolutionaryActs]

16. Yes he *said* it... but I didn't say he was the first to say it..

:P

;)

:D

[fryguy]

17. gotcha!

didn't mean/intend to sound pricky....was just wonderig....

[RevolutionaryActs]

18. I didn't think you sounded pricky,

:D

Did I sound bitchy? :o

[sans qualia]

8. His skin doesn't look quite so jaundiced close up

[TayTay]

13. It's an old picture

My son does excellent impressions. When LOTR:FOTR was recently on TV and I was still depressed over the election result, he was doing impressions of all the LOTR major characters and giving them an '04 political twist.

Gollum/Smeagol was the undecided Ohio voter (and that didn't turn out well at all, did it precious!)

The Nazgul were "They were Democrats once, then Bush the Deceiver gave to them nine rings of power. At all times the feel the pull of Bush's evil power and must obey."

We couldn't agree on who Kerry was. Way too tall to be a Hobbit, too just not right for anyone else. Thoughts?

Oh well, I thought it was funny. Your mileage may vary.

[nickinSTL]

14. Boromir?

Flawed, fought bravely but failed in the end?

(assuming the voter fraud isn't proven in time to overturn the results...)

Also, realize I've only seen the movies, never read the books, so my impressions of the characters are entirely based on the movies...

[TayTay]

15. Ooooh, I like that

Boromir. Failed and killed in the first movie. Means there are sequels! It gets worse (oh dear!) then better. Then, we win!

Okay, I can live with that. Anything but Frodo. Cuz, he's waaaaaaaay too tall. (Ever have one of those incredibly stupid but really intereting discussions with someone that you know you shouldn't have but you do anyway cuz it's just too good? It's like that.)

[Lisa]

19. I could imagine Kerry as Faramir ...

He dutifully went out and served, in an unjust war -- was wounded -- and ultimately won the heart of a fierce warrior woman from a land to the east, even though a lot of people thought he was boring and lacked charisma.
