Changed my mind! After seeing that wonderful, spectacular, amazing ROTK tralier in the theater. I want to see the entire masterpiece Now!!!!<BR>Is there really still over 2 months to December? Much, much, too long of a wait. But I still think it will go kind of quickly though <p>[ September 29, 2003: Message edited by: Gorwingel ]

Orominuialwen 09-29-2003 04:47 PM

Only 77 days 'til RotK comes out! I must download the trailer now, so I'll have to go.<P>P.S.The food's great everyone! And no, Knight of Gondor, there are no nuts in my fudge .

Knight of Gondor 09-29-2003 08:41 PM

*Breathes* <P>I've seen the trailer, maybe five times now. This movie will be the singularly most awesome movie of this century, I just know it!

I wanna see it now! *sniffle* Can't...wait...much longer...<P>*grabs a little of all the food*<BR>*offers cupcakes*<P>I am now in a downloading spree and am downloading everything lotr.net has to offer... heh heh heh.

Enorëiel 09-30-2003 03:07 PM

Ah! I needed this support group BEFORE I saw the ROTK trailer but now that I've seen it... I'm DESPERATE!!!!!! How many more days is it? 76? That's too long!! Must- Oo! *grabs lembas* Mmmm... not bad. Can someone pass the cheesecake? Food always helps the wait....

Finwe 10-01-2003 08:17 PM

The Physics teacher at my school claims that he controls time, so if all of you come over to my high school, he can send us forward in time, two months hence, so we can go watch Return of the King! What say you all?!

Knight of Gondor 10-01-2003 08:35 PM

I say that the wait will do us good. Too much impatience in the world, too much "gimme it now". <P>Besides, if we all saw it now, then my Support Group post would come to naught!<P>By the way, I got an advanced edition of Aragorn and Brego: The Return of the King edition. Aragorn looks COOOL. So does Brego. Aragorn has his Elven dagger, but NO sheath for Narsil, just as I predicted.

HCIsland 10-01-2003 09:06 PM

No problem. I can move us all forward in time to the premier. Unfortunately, it will take us 76 days to get there. <P>H.C.

Aduyuldaiel-MirkwoodPrincess 10-02-2003 09:48 AM

the preview didnt help me i wanna see it so bad i cant WAIT till its in theaters SO CLOSE...yet so far...

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>This movie will be the singularly most awesome movie of this century, I just know it! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Yup, it definitely will...even though we are only three years into it so far... <BR>Yes, I think the wait will make it even better...we get too much stuff just about when we want it.<BR>So near and yet so far...

Arwen Eruantale 10-02-2003 11:37 AM

*sigh* *has a few scoops of ice cream*<P>I could just watch the <I>trailer</I> for three hours, what is the whole thing going to be like... <P>I can wait.. I think.. I'm a bit sad though, because I don't want it to be over yet...

Sleepy Ranger 10-02-2003 12:55 PM

Can I join in? You guys are so lucky. Where I live ROTK won't be out till around Feb 18th. How convenient just in time for my birthday like FOTR and TT. Man I cant wait.<p>[ October 30, 2003: Message edited by: Sleepy Ranger ]

Sapphire_Flame 10-02-2003 01:04 PM

*waves to Enorëiel* Nice to see you here! <P>OMG, THAT TRAILER IS SO AWESOME!!! The signal from Minas Morgul, Nazgul divebombing Minas Tirith, sneaky evil Gollum, <I>SHELOB!</I> I can't wait for this movie!<P>But they hardly show Pippin at all! That's sad; Pippin's my favorite! I think I'll join up with Meela in being indignant that our favorite characters weren't shown in the trailer (Pip and Denethor, respectively). *sits in a corner, pouting and eating ice cream*<P>Abedithon le,<P>~*~Aranel~*~

dancing spawn of ungoliant 10-02-2003 01:21 PM

Am I the only one who hasn't seen the trailer yet? My great plan betrayed me...the computers at my school weren't able to play the trailer *sneef*<BR>Do I have to wate untill it's available in Windows Media format or what? Any suggestions?<BR>At meantime I can keep eating...and feel free to help yourselves grapes and strawberries! They're delicious!

Oddwen 10-02-2003 02:17 PM

They did show one small shot of Pip, from the back. *scowl* <BR>Councilofelrond.com just posted a link for Windows Media and realplayer.<P><A HREF="http://www.themoviebox.net/movies/2003/Lord-of-the-Rings_ROTK/trailer-page.html" TARGET=_blank>Here</A> it is.<P>I hope you can see it! <BR>Is anyone dressing up for the premier? My sister and myself have decided that we are. She's going hobbitish while I'm deliberating between Eowyn's green gown, Arwen's blood red dress, or one of my own design.

Sapphire_Flame 10-02-2003 03:08 PM

Ooo, grapes! Hannon le, dancing spawn! <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Is anyone dressing up for the premier?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I am! I am going as a hobbit, but my costume is going to be kinda more Elvish (like Legolas's). It has to do with my LotR fanfic, so yeah. Click on my little homepage button above if you wanna check it out. I'm even going to temp-dye my hair to fit the character better.<P>And yes Oddwen, I know Pip was in the trailer. I'm just mad because he wasn't in there enough! There's that split second shot of him standing by Gandalf, and then the bit with Merry's line: "We will see the Shire again." Not near enough for my liking. Phoo.<P>Abedithon le,<P>~*~Aranel~*~

Enorëiel 10-02-2003 03:25 PM

*waves back to Sapphire_Flame* Didn't expect to see you here *wink wink*<P>As for dressing up for the premere.... that all depends on who I go with, sadly most of my friends (I said MOST Ms. Sarah) are well... not anti-lord of the rings... more... shall we say... sane, non-obssesive lord of the rings fans. I really do want to dress up though! That'd be so awesome! Then, according to my brother I would be an offical 'Lord of the Rings Freak' A title which I am dying to hold . And besides... if I do plan on dressing up it'd at least help to keep me sane until the premere, right?

RRyan24 10-02-2003 03:43 PM

Boy am I glad this thread got started! I'm in direr need of a support group here! I'm driving my family crazy with all the RotK talk! But I simply cannot wait! And wonders of all wonders it will be realesed pretty close to my birthday! Of I feel so special! I think I'll stock up on posters and such until it comes out. I've seen the preview like a thousand times! AHHH!!!!! *squirms in her chair impatiently* ARG! Time will not pass quickly enough! *Grabs her favorite dessert...CHEESECAKE!*

Orominuialwen 10-02-2003 09:49 PM

I saw the trailer! IT WAS AWESOME!!! I'm going to go to the premiere in either my white Arwen dress (last year's Halloween costume) or in the Eowyn dress I'm making for this year. My little brother (who looks a lot like Elijah Wood) will probably go as Frodo (if he doesn't, he had better watch out !) I must have some more cheesecake to keep myself going until then! *begins to munch*

Meela 10-03-2003 02:31 AM

I can't see the other trailers either. <P>I'm dressing up on December 17th. I'm going as Mrs Denethor.

dancing spawn of ungoliant 10-03-2003 06:15 AM

Quess what, my dear friends! I found a way to avoid the stupid security thing and just saw the trailer!!! I'm so over-happy now. Shelob was quite small though, or maybe it was just a part of it.<P>Thanks to Oddwen, who posted that link...now I can watch it in two different formats <P>I quess I'm not dressing up anything LotR related. It would seem little odd here when people haven't got used to it. Maybe just an elvish-like hair do or something.<P>ps.

You know, you really should dress up for the premire.

Aethelwine 10-03-2003 01:53 PM

I hope you don’t mind me joining in the fun. *sits down, lays down some chocolates* I just saw the trailer, again (for the 10th time? Something like that) and it’s awesome!!!! I can’t wait till the 17th of December. Why does it have to be so long till then? <BR>*grasps some popcorn* Jummie, popcorn! <BR>I think I’m going to need this group a whole lot until ROTK comes out. And afterwards… <P>Navaer!<P>Aethelwine.

Meneltarmacil 10-03-2003 02:06 PM

"Mrs. Denethor"? You're talking about Finduilas, right?<P>Oh and every time I watch the preview on the DVD for TTT, I keep thinking "I can't wait two and a half months! I need a time machine!"<P>*sigh*<P>In the meantime, I'm going to order some pizza. What do you want on it?

Frodo2968thewhite 10-03-2003 02:08 PM

I've been sick all week, so everyday I watch TTT and the ROTK preview on the DVD. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!! I NEED A SUPPORT GROUP!!!! HELP!!!!!!! *passes out*.............*wakes up* <BR> I might dress up, but if not, I'll wear a shirt that says, "Inaugural Golden Ring Marathon, October 20, 2005 FRODO LIVES!!!"<P>*passes out thinking of ROTK*

Elentári_O_Most_Mighty_1 10-03-2003 02:09 PM

What does 'Nevaer' mean?<P>I'm making a costume for my Textiles coursework, but I won't have finished it by the time it is released. I won't even be able to get to the premiere (despite me and my friends' cunning little plans on how to kidnap Mr. Bloom &co ).<BR>So I shall just be wearing my Ring on my finger (it is a silver one, it doesn't have a chain). Forget dressing up and being called a freak, I am called a freak for wearing the Ring. And it isn't like no one has heard of it (God forbid), because I asked my form when I did my speech (on guess what??), and only about 3 or 4 people hadn't seen it (out of 25). On the other hand only about 5 had read the books. <BR> Oh well...

*sits in and grabs the cheese and crackers* Hey guys. Talking about how great it's going to be will only make it worse, so I'll sit back, shut up, and get positive vibes from other patient peoples such as myself.

Oddwen 10-04-2003 08:48 AM

I hear that the soundtrack is coming out Nov. 25th. *drools* I can't wait either. I love the music especially at the end of the trailer. It's boo-ti-ful!

Whhhell, I'll have to wait awhiiiileeee longer than you guys from England, etc., to see the beloved movie. So I mourn, but yet I hope to be saved and the hope's with me, just as it was with our dear Ringbearer on his way to Mordor...And I'll have hilarious fits on every anniversary of the day I see it. In the meantime, I live... poorly, but live...

I am resisting the urge to see the trailer, because I didn't see the trailers for FotR or TTT and some interesting things happened. I will of course watch it after I have seen the movie! Call me weird, whatever, I am.<P>I brought apples, in honour of Pippin! Also butterscotch lifesavers, because they look like rings, and look! More lembas bread! (I love to quote!)<P>*Elennar goes to nibble on some food* yummy...
