Note that this week's post will be, to use an American football term, 'punted' to next week as I've gotten behind in pretty much every area of my life due to some travel. See you next week.

The last RotK sequence is delayed by a week. Sorry, but wayfaring, work and wild winter weather are all conspiring against me, and I'd hate to give my last thread short shrift.

I'd like to kick off this hopefully long list of thanks to Alatar for the last 17 months or so inside the movies

The dedication and work that has gone behind each 'Chapter' startup from Alatar was inspiring.

Even though we have already done these movies to death on these boards (I can vaguely remember something about the gandalf / WK fight??) - it was stil good to go back over 'old' ground in a structured order, and to see new comers join in and add their viewpoint.

I hope to see these posts updated now and then by new people and old just like is done on the lotr book chapter by chpter discussions.

So as long as the Downs last, Alatar, you have left a great legacy for newcomers and old alike to continue discussions on the movie adaptation of the Best book ever written on this little rock of ours.

Well done again. If you're ever around the London UK area Alatar, drop me a line and I'll buy you a pint or two in celebration!

Must chime in: spectacular job, alatar!

I still fondly recall laughing hysterically -- truly out loud, no less -- at the repeated references to Elrond's glares and how he must have been thinking back to "that day 3000 years ago".

I know it's been kind of a tough job as interest was very high at the beginning, then dwindled down and hasn't been totally resurrected. But we've had some great discussion from beginning to end, and alatar has done a great job guiding us through it. It's hard to believe we've been going at this for as long as we have.

Looking forward to The Hobbit SbS discussion, which, alas, won't last nearly as long, but what's a Peredhil to do? Again, many thanks to all who posted, and especially to alatar for spearheading the whole operation! Elen sila lumenn omentialvo!
