<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>That was an homage (in PJ's mind) to T2 (The Terminator 2).<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Yes, that is what I immediately thought of after Gollum sunk into the lava.<P>That part with Gollum did bother me because yes, he should have been ashes the minute he touched the lava. But maybe they did it the way they did because they had to keep it to a PG-13 rating. Gollum bursting into flames could have been quite violent.<P>Oh, and another thing that I wish they would have included is Gollum's last line in the book of "Precious". That would have been so cool, but alas they didn't include it.<P>I thought that it turned out well, but it was not my favorite part of the film. I have no problem with the Gollum fighting with the invisible Frodo scene, because that is exactly what it would have looked like.<P>Oh and about the Volcano. There can be Volcanos that spew ash, rocks, and have lava flows. Mt. Doom kind of reminded me of Mount Vesuvius in Italy. That is a very violent volcano, that has very violent eruptions, but it also has lava flows just like the volcanos in Hawaii and other tropical places.<p>[ 2:52 AM December 24, 2003: Message edited by: Gorwingel ]
