So, I thought this was the non-Starfield part of the boards, but I came here and there was hardly anything here, so I was just wondering why. Hmm...So, I decided to make up another topic to add some variety.
What is your opinion on Lord of the Rings? There, new topic started.

I love LOTR!!!! I can't wait until ROTK comes out! (may 25th!) Yay! Only 7 days after Starfields cd. may's a good month! Fav. Characters ? I like Aragorn, Sam, Frodo (of course!). Yeah.
I am sure you will be shocked to find out that Legolas is NOT my favorite character. He is somewhat cute, but far from good looking, and plus all he does is state the obvious. Okay, sorry, that isn't all he does, but he does it a lot. And how on earth does he manage to keep his hair so perfect? Unrealistic? I think so, not that I am bashing him, far from it, I think he is essential to all aspects of the movie. My favorite charecter is Aragorn. He is amazing! And Viggo is a good actor, plays him quite well, I think.

And is hair is always perfect cause he's an Elf and he's special that way. And he probably takes random baths in non-existant rivers that he somehow manages to find anyway. Either that or he just uses some freaking awesome shampoo. I'll have to find out where he shops...
Actually I just had a revelation. Gimli never really looks that dirty either, does he? We just never really notice cause he's so... um... "not an Elf". Really, his hair's all curly so its not all flowy and shiny like Leggy's, and he's short and always hidden by a helmet, and we pretty much only pay attention to him (in the movies) for comic relief. I'll have to check next time I'm watching.
Maybe he does get dirty, but I know neither of them ever seem to be caked in blood like Aragorn gets... *rubs chin* Maybe its supposed to make him look more heroic or something.
About the shampoo that Legolas uses; my friend is doing a LOTR newspaper as a project for one of her writing courses, and she had this news article in it. Legolas had been stealing special minerals from the mines of moria in order to make this special shampoo that makes your hair perfect, all the time. It was illigal, and he got caught. He was selling the shampoo to the the public, but he was stoped by the law.
So I guess now we know why his hair is always so perfect, it makes sense now

Probably, which is a bit of a disapointment, because that just makes him so less cool. I love all those pictures of elrond with the shades, eh! Like, Matrix intwined with Elrond, they are hilarious!

Omgoodness, I love love love Lord of the Rings. It's kinda funny though because I saw the Return of the King in theatres before I saw the first two and I was SOOOO confused. But then my friend explained everything and it was all good.
Also, for our youth group's 30-hour-famine activity, we had a LOTR movie marathon. We watched the first two on DVD and saw the third one in theatres. I've seen the third one three times. I guess you could say I'm a tad obsessed, or atleast I used to be.
My favourite character, I would have to say, is Pippin. He is so funny and he always makes me laugh with his ability to do the wrong thing at the wrong time. But in the third movie he actually is a hero. Gotta love him. lol.
Die-hard LOTR fan here. I've loved the books since I first read them when I was about eleven...and am just now beginning to appreciate everything that Tolkien put into writing both LOTR and the histories of Middle-Earth.
Dude I am like so so so happy right now go figure i would find lotr obbsessed people here, lotr rocks like you might think I am a dork ( at least I'm know for that at school) because like man, I dont know where to begin, like aaahhh, it is so sos oawsome I cant even tell you but the 3rd time I saw rotk intheaters, this guy totally got angry at my and kicked the the back of my seat and told my to be quiet because I was crying to loud, oh the nerve, man it was a really sad part to, man I was mad, but i am reading the Book of lost atles, the style is so much difdernt then lotr, but it is even better writing I think they are all short stories by JRR Tolkien, he is a great auther,
Billy Boyd Rocks!! the hottest guy ever to live, I am so glad he is in the movies
I haven't read the Sil for ages...I just recently bought a copy from the library (25c!) but haven't had a chance between finals and stuff to get into it.

i was talking to a friend of mine about Troy and she said she liked it better than LOTR! I was just like, you can't even compare the two. I liek them both. A lot a lot a lot. I just can't compare them because they are both so spectacular.

They were both extremly well done! However I went to see Troy, bc of Orlando Bloom, and Brad Pitt where as I went to see lotr bc of the plot. But in the end they were really both quite good! Troy made me cry :'( lol stupid Paris :'( lol!
