  • Fellowship, My prayers and condolences to you. I lost my oldest sister a year ago Dec. 12. She died after a 3 year battle with mouth cancer. It was a horrible fight and she struggled to the end, but I take comfort in her faith and know she is …
  • My 6-yr old & 8-yr old played bingo at the neighbor's until the late hour of 8:30. My husband & I watched the extended version of FOTR with the Director's commentary and fell asleep in front of the tv around 9:30. Not nearly as exciting as …
  • [quote]Originally posted by NoahJ: Tom's role was really rather small overall anyhow. I look forward to seeng the full version as well. Ah, but not really. The sword that Merry gets from the Barrow Downs is crucial to him killing the Nazgul…
  • [quote]Originally posted by BRussell: No Tom - they apparently never even had any plans for including him. But I did like the extended version. Lots of good new scenes: Galadriel's gifts, Elves leaving Middle Earth, Aragorn singing about Beren &…
  • [quote]Originally posted by PC^KILLA: Well, since you are a mystery to me.. mith. [ 11-21-2002: Message edited by: PC^KILLA ] Well, I'm afraid the best I could do would be Goldberry, but I'm not that vain. I still prefer to be Eowyn.
  • [quote]Originally posted by ColanderOfDeath: How would you describe boromir? Boromir is an honorable and noble man of Gondor who, although temporarily succumbing to the power of the ring, sacrifices his life to save the hobbits. Go ahead, ask…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Mulattabianca: thanx mika for not classifying me as that blond fairy girl (i forgot her name) ... You mean Galadrial? Dare I ask why not? I would love to be Galadrial, but I fear I am much more like Eowyn. …
  • [quote]Originally posted by Matsu: I've just gone through the Fellowship (It's been over ten years since the last time I read it) and for the first film, I have to say that Jackson made very good choices about what to leave in/out and where to make…
  • Cary Grant. Hands down.
  • Boy do I feel old. I haven't heard most of these songs. But then I don't listen to "sad" music when I'm down. I put in something more upbeat to get me _out_ of the funk. Lyle Lovett's "That's Right, Your Not from Texas" usually does the trick. Oth…

  • I wish I could list The Fellowship of the Ring as an all time favorite movie. I really like it but they LEFT OUT TOM BOMBADIL. How could they do that?!! I am hopeful that The Two Towers will be a more faithful adaptation. Then that can take a place …
  • All time favorite? Casa Blanca (I get choked up when the whole night club sings the French national anthem, I don't care how many times I've seen it. But i think the best movie ever made was Citizen Kane. Arsenic and Old Lace stills makes me l…
  • I loathed Catcher in the Rye. A friend of mine went on and on about it and I didn't see the attraction. Moby Dick for the 4th or 5th time?!! I couldn't finish it the first time. I've read War and Peace but could not get through Moby Dick. The …
  • [quote]Originally posted by mntrapper: No the worst movie EVER created was BOOGIE NIGHTS You are absolutely right. I had wiped that one from my memory. YUCK!
  • Worst: The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover, pretentious at best Aliens 3+ (Although I like Aliens) Everything put out by Disney in the last 15 years that wasn?t a Pixar film Eyes Wide Shut (we had to go sit in the bar for a while in the …
  • [quote]Originally posted by trumptman: I'm sorry I can't name just one... 1. Dark City... the only movie I have ever... A) Had an entire group actually fall asleep while watching (not at home I'm talking in the actual theater), and Wake up and …
