OH MY GOD!!! I JUST SAW IT!!! IT WAS SO GREAT!! I am sad they left out some parts....but it was still soooo GREAT!! But its sad cuz i dont have anything to look foward to!

Laitoste 12-18-2003 07:28 PM

Folks, I don't get to see it until NEXT WEDNESDAY! My parents weren't about to let me miss school and I had a major AP Bio paper to write last night. They also don't want to pay for the evening showings, and we have to go to my grandparents' this weekend. So I still need you! Don't leave me!!!!!!! WAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Knight of Gondor 12-18-2003 09:48 PM

Stay strong, old boy, I started this post, and I'm going to see it through. I've seen it, and I can tell you, the wait is worth it. I know it's hard, but come next Wednesday (Christmas Eve?!) you'll be gratified.

<B>I SAW IT!!!</B> It was wonderful and beautiful, and everything that I'd hoped for and more. My deepest apologies for the overly-long squee earlier. I got <I>much</I> too carried away. I've edited it, so it's much shorter now. I'm sorry for not being able to do it sooner. Anyway, I wore my costume to school, and I was not the only one. Some of the costumes were one of the Nazgul, Rosie, and Sam. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see Sam at all, and I barely got a look at Rosie. My brother and I were the only ones at the theater in costume (Frodo and Eowyn, respectively). Poor Laitoste! I've found it helps if you watch the trailer over and over. I will have more about everything later, but I'm being ordered of the computer now.<P>RotK was the best movie I've seen in my entire life.

Orominuialwen 12-24-2003 04:05 PM

Has anybody heard the NPR story on Tolkien and RotK? I didn't get to hear it live (I was at school), but <A HREF="http://www.npr.org/rundowns/rundown.php?prgId=5&prgDate=18-Dec-2003" TARGET=_blank>here's</A> where you can listen to a recording of it -- they play Aragorn's speech (the short version) in it!! Scroll down about half way down the page.<p>[ 5:12 PM December 24, 2003: Message edited by: Orominuialwen ]

Laitoste 12-24-2003 08:42 PM

I just saw it!!!!!!!!! It was, well, I really can't describe it. It was the best os the trilogy, by far. I LOVED IT!!!!! (Can you tell?) I cried through the entire thing (well, kinda), and I don't cry during movies. It was so cool. Thanks everyone, for being here! I can't believe that there won't be another one next year. What will I do? (Other than watch my DVDs constantly, of course, and READ!!!!-no question there! )

Orominuialwen 12-25-2003 02:35 PM

Yay! Glad to hear that you got to see RotK Laitoste. Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all have a good day and get some nice LotR-related presents (I got FotR:EE ). I also got PotC, so it's been quite a good Christmas. Have a good day one and all!

Elennar Starfire 12-25-2003 06:20 PM

I got a cute christmas present... A pocket pack of tissues and a ticket to RotK. Though I have already seen it, still: SQUEEEEEEEE!!!<P>'Tis a most wonderful film.

Azaelia of Willowbottom 12-25-2003 07:44 PM

That sounds like the perfect Christmas for you, then! <P>I saw it on Wed. the 17th... and all I can say is wow wow wow. It was beautiful and amazing and bittersweet and touching... absoloutely the best movie I have ever seen! There were a lot of million-dollar moments in there... (Million-dollar moment is a phrase I've never heard except out of my own mouth, so, for anyone who might be confused, it's a moment I'd pay $1 million to see!)<P>To all of you still waiting... Hang in there, all the waiting you have to do will, I'm sure, make the movie that much more amazing for you. It is way beyond well worth the wait!

Knight of Gondor 12-25-2003 09:56 PM

Anyone else here that has not seen it yet? We're still here for you!! I even held back a loaf of raisin bread for you!

Lathriel 12-27-2003 07:12 PM

Now all we need is a support group for ROTK:EE. That will be a long wait. Will they put in the houses of healing or Faramir and Eowyn. They better!

Orominuialwen 12-31-2003 02:58 PM

I think they're going to. Otherwise, to use I phrase of mine which I'm fond of, there would be riots on the Barrow-Downs! We do need a RotK:EE support group, though. When is it supposed to come out?<P>My dad says we can see RotK again! I think my family's going this friday. I can't wait! My mom still hasn't even seen RotK.<P>My plan is to see RotK at least once a month until it goes out of theaters. <P>EDIT: Oohh, I like your new avatar, Knight of Gondor. Very spiffy. <p>[ 4:00 PM December 31, 2003: Message edited by: Orominuialwen ]

The Only Real Estel 12-31-2003 02:59 PM

Yes, <B>Knight of Gondor</B>, start up a RotK EE thread & see if you can top the 409 (now 410) posts that this one generated !<p>[ 4:00 PM December 31, 2003: Message edited by: The Only Real Estel ]

rryan24 12-31-2003 04:19 PM

My, my are you ever in demand Knight of Gondor! But yes, I do think you should start up a RotK EE thread! And if no one else will contribute to wracking up the posts for that one I probably will all by myself! I can't wait! I'm getting too anxious for my own good. By the way, I do agree with Orominuialwen, VERY spiffy avatar, if I do say so myself.

Lathriel 12-31-2003 06:55 PM

Just thought I would spread the word. I saw a movie picture on TORn where Faramir was being healed by Aragorn. This can only mean that Houses of Healing will be in the EE!!

Sapphire_Flame 01-01-2004 04:40 PM

I heard there is going to be an additional <B>ONE HOUR AND FIVE MINUTES</B> of footage in the RotK: EV!!! *sigh* Can't wait!!!<P>Abedithon le,<P>~*~Aranel~*~
