And the way he just went down slowly... yikes that was disturbing.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>That was an homage (in PJ's mind) to T2 (The Terminator 2). <P>The only thing missing was Gollum/Sméagol giving the thumbs-up sign to his best buddies Sam and Frodo as he sank beneath the surface of the molten rock. <P>* Sméagol sniffs * <I>"We very much regret that we called you a fat, stupid hobbit, our friend, don't we, our Preciouss? And Nice Master, get some medical attention for that finger. Good bye and farewell...think better of me."</I>
