LOTR: The Return of the King...Countdown and Discussion Thread

Who needs a life when you've got a 5-hour ROTK? w00t!

 

There's a phrase "Too good to be true" that I think is appropriate right now.


If he can't cut it ALL into the film, he should at least stick the spare parts somewhere on the DVD for us, precious.

Some who are good deserve gifts, others who are bad deserve none. Can you give it to them, Frodo?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

 

Which [tmd] movie file is legit?

 

OK, if this has been posted before, forgive me. But did anyone else think of Luke And Vader in ROTJ when Theoden and Eowyn were talking on the battlefield after Eowyn killed the Wraith king. (at least I think that's what he was called)

Godsmack Rules!!

 

Well, I sort of did think of Luke/Vader. However, the lines in ROTK were quite different.

Thanks for mentioning that, because no one else has.

 

ROTK was allright, but The Two Towers had that more realistic touch, and the battle of Helm's Deep was seen in more detail then that of the Pelior Fields or the Black Gates. They were rushed.

Still, I enjoyed it.

 

Also, I liked how some characters developed further through the 3rd movie.

Actually at this scene, my brother with his best Yoda impression whispered "No, there is another"

 

An oldie but a goodie:

LOTR Film Made In The 1940s!

Humphrey Bogart as Frodo
Sydney Greenstreet as Gandalf the Grey
Dooley Wilson as Sam
Bob Steele as the Nazgul
Charles Waldron as Elrond
Godzilla as the Balrog
Marlene Dietrich as Galadriel
Orson Welles as Saruman
Peter Lorre as Gollum

Frodo's stunt-double - Joseph Cotten

It's Amazing!

 

Ah, but if LOTR was made during the time when Hollywood was obsessed with Biblical epics...imagine Heston as Gandalf! Yul Brynner as Saruman! Robert Taylor as Aragorn! Peter Ustinov as Denethor!
