LOTR Review!

Oops, sorry. That's-
"By Elbereth and Luthien the Fair.."
I get the songs mixed up with the quotes.
oh, yeah, and i have a Legolas desktop. you can get them at www.lordoftherings.net. click on "downloads" and there's two of him you can pick from, if you want something more durable than a poster.

 

sorry about the double post-my computer messed up.

 

Oh, and Beth, in case you want to know: the 2002 LotR calender has Legolas on December.

 

Thanks Eric...I'll keep that in mind.

 

There were some posters with him in it but none with Legolas by himself.

 

So for the rest of you, who are your fav characters from the movie?

I'm going with Boromir.

 

Aragorn definatly. Although Boromir is really cool, tough dude.

 

I liked Sam. Reminded me of me!!

 

Gandalf. "Fool of a Took!"

 

I don't think I've posted here before, despite having lived in Boston for 12 years now, but I thought I'd drop in and comment.

I've seen it twice in the last week. Absolutely loved it. Of course, they took creative license and drew in a few things that weren't mentioned until later in the trilogy, but it helped the story flow better.

High points:

Legolas--very believable warrior, noble spirit and great courage.

Strider--Exactly as I pictured him, only better.

The attraction of the One Ring--it gave us a very real perspective on the draw of power and the madness of it all. Especially liked Bilbo trying to grasp it once more and Galadriel's 'test'.

Saruman--I don't know why, but when I saw the portrayal, I had to wonder if this is sort of the way the Emperor gained associates and slaves. Or Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter.

Moria--eerie as all getout. The Orcs skittering down the columns like spiders. The Balrog gave me nightmares.

Boromir--liked the fluctuation between warrior spirit and mad ambition.

Gandalf--I just love this guy.

Sam--I wanted to hug him to death. He's such a good, loyal, and slightly batty friend.

Low points:

Um, can't think of any, except for omissions.

 

"I liked Sam. Reminded me of me!!" -Tom

Yeah, as soon as we got into the shire I saw a few people who looked just like you, about as tall too .

 

LEGOLAS!!

For obvious reasons...and the fact that the bow and arrow thing he does, well its pretty freaking cool!

I also like Aragorn and Gandalf. And Sam definetly deserved to be hugged to death...too cute!

Oh and I can get posters of just Legolas online...I've seen them.

 

Enjoy your posters Beth...but not too much .

 

Arwen. 'nough said.

 

Liv actually did a pretty good job. I'm impressed.

 

Liv Tyler is HOT!

 

I agree she did a great job,although I dont think that was her voice.It didnt sound like here at all.

 

I dig that line "if you want him, come and claim him" she looks so ub3r hot!

 

I always pictured Arwen being extremly hot and all but Liv Tyler dressed as an Elf and all well...

 

Until the movie I never imagined her wielding a sword and anything like that....

But hot? Oh yes!

 

Considering she looked like Luthien Tinuviel reborn, and Tinuviel was the most beautiful of the Children of Illuvatar...

 

Indeed.

 

This is a fact.

 

ok,going to see it again today,this wiil make it # 4.I'm actually starting to understand this movie.Think I might go buy the books now.

 

Tenel Ka fan, by any chance, Crix?
