<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Meneltarmacil: The PJ-with-a-carrot-scene is just as the Hobbits enter the gates. He appears from the side (though I don't remember whether from the left or right). It's just a split second, but you can't miss him because he's the only chubby bearded guy eating a carrot.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> He also cuts loose a nice rolling belch, so he's not hard to miss . <BR> The things I liked about the movies were:<P>*The sounds the Ringwraiths made, &, quite frankly, the Ringwraiths all-round.<P>*Borimir was great. His death scene was even better<BR> <BR>*Actors were good choices pretty much all-round.<BR> <BR>*All or Moria was excellent, but especially gandalf's death scene & the insuing 'greaving scene'.<BR> <BR>*Frodo at the water scene near the end was very well done.<BR> <BR>*Helm's Deep. It was all good, although it was bordering on 'to much of a good thing'.<BR> <BR>*The Ents attacking Isengard was fair, although a suprising amount of them are left-handed.<BR> <BR>*Gollom was by far the best part of TTT. He was done brilliantly & just seeing him was well worth the $5 I had to pay every time I saw it ($2 one time I guess ). <BR> <BR>*The Orcs were awesome, & deffinatly helped out my flawed imagination of them . It seems like very few of them in TTT still have any remnents of the red paint & white hand on their faces from FotR (the ones with Merry & Pippin). In fact they hardly even look like them, but that's ok (and that <B>doesn't</B> qualify as a bash by the way).<BR> <BR>*Soundtracks to both movies, although especially FotR.<BR> <BR>*The younger & skinnier hobbits, I don't think people want to see old fat hobbits tottering around... <P>That's what I saw.<p>[ August 18, 2003: Message edited by: The Only Real Estel ]
