__________________

__________________

ill probably see it in a few months when it comes out on dvd or rent it..cos i cant be assed to go to the cinema, cos im lazy like that, and not into geeky movies..

__________________

i'm pretty sure i will see it soon.

__________________

it kicks ass!

__________________

i saw it yesterday afternoon, and it was pretty good.
there were some really kick ass scenes and moves.
it just seemed to drag on and on...

__________________

I thought the movie played out really well as a whole, and I'm not a Tolkien purist by any means, I seriously have no interest in his books. I like fantasy movies, and judged it as such.







The editing disappointed me during the Helms Deep battle. The director cut away from the action too often, and to less important scenes.

i went to see it the day it came out, it was pretty bad-ass. some good battle scenes.

I downloaded it and burned it to a dvd, anyone wanna buy it?

Fuck no, the only copies out there are telesyncs and cams by FTF, TCF and some other shitty upstart release team. NONE of them are anywhere near a quality that would be worthy of a DVD. When TCF releases the DVD screener in a few weeks/months, that's when I'll download it myself and burn the DVD. I'll still snatch it up when New Line releases the official DVD as well, can't beat a pure transfer and all the extras.


One more thing, don't try selling copyrighted movies to people here.

yeah, you gotta see those movies in the cinema with kickass sound and shit, else it doesn't work for me.
I had the fellowship of the rings dvd at home but watching it at home is less fun then in the cinema...

I'm gonna see it this weekend

I´m going tonight

I'm burning it to CDR for my DVd player tomorrow

Its on at awkward times, so i;m just downlaoding it...

i'll have to wait until 10th of january 2003 to see it...damn

__________________

i loved it but it didnt have as much of the "creepy" syphony music shit

__________________

i saw it yesterday, damn good movie, but i thought it was a lil on the long side.

__________________

I really didnt care for it. The only parts that I found the least bit amusing was when the green thing was talking to himeself and they had different screen shots on him - and how he'd always call the fat hobbit the fat hobbit. Haha, what a classic. Oh, yeah... and the tree part near the end of the movie... it makes me wish that I was an envorimentalists - not.

The movie was good, but the book was way better.

The movie actually pissed me off a bit because it lacked a lot of what was cool in the book. The Ents definitally were one of the best parts of the film.

__________________

yah after seeing it made me think alot different bout trees

__________________

I saw it twice.
I laughed like hell because of Gimli in Helms doom.
But they changed to of the plot in the movie. I'd like to have more from the ents and huorns and less from this fucking love story.

__________________

i thought the whole Golem part was pretty damn funny...where he was taking to himself

__________________

This was THE disappointment of the year 2002.
Very loosely based on the book, I think Tolkien is rotating in his grave.
But good if you try to not think about the book.
The positive sides were the Ents and Gollum.

__________________

So I guess me not reading the books turned out to be beneficial in the long run...

Very clever, O Wise Yeti

__________________

I never liked god damn reading anyway.

No one's talked much about Sam in this thread. I think Sam was awesome, he kicked Gollum's ass, and talked about eating all the time, at least in the first one (memory's not what it used to be...). Anyway, kicking ass and eating food, if he was a drunk, he'd be me.

Anyone else think Gollum is a heroin addict Yoda?

i thought he looked more like a starved gardengnome on crack but without the garden.

__________________

What's with you and the gnomes today?

I'm fuckin' drunk,had too many drinks ,in fact there's a gardengnome pouring out a drink for me right next to me now but i'm getting off-topic... Two Towers? good movie,not enough gardengnomes in it though i think i'm going to bed now feeling kinda tired.

good to be back on the board after a few weeks,been to busy with drinking,girlfriends,exams,gardengnomes,training and other shit hopefully i'll post more more soon,we'll see.

Wait till the 3rd movie......well, that is if Jackson keeps it anywhere close to the book. You'll be pleased.

__________________

Who's Jackson?

The jackass who directed the films. (pretty sure it was Jackson)

__________________

Well, he better make Sam kick some ass.

Sam's pretty awesome in the 3rd book......moreso than the first 2.

But as for the movies............

Ok. heres some funny shit about LOTR movies. Go check this out dudes but don´t take it too seriously. They shoud be read in order.

I think the book was better than the movie. But the first movie was fuckin awesome. There was too many comical sections in Two towers . Who can take seriously the scene where legolas swings himself on the horse or when he slides down the stairs with a shield. God damn that babyface!

__________________

I liked that scene.
And who can take fantasy serious.

__________________

I also liked that scene (horse scene).

Tolkien makes in clear in the books that Elves can be quite fast.....so that scene made perfect sense if you paid attention reading the books.

__________________

right but the scene is fucking funny. couldn´t stop laughing when i saw the movie first time. You guys read any other Tolkien books?

__________________

I read "the hobbit" first. My sister told me to. Then "the lord of the rings". And i'm thinking of reading the books about the old races.

And i played the roleplay.

__________________

a true disapointment for me they did not tried to do something different from the book
it's just copy and paste

The battle is so untrue I had to laugh or weep I don't know.
seems like tolkien wasn't a true strategist.

hopefully I did not pay to see it

__________________

Nearly the whole fight from Helms doom is different from the book. There were no elfes. I missed the huorns, at least the forest where the last orks run into. Then i missed Erkenbrand, if his called this way in the english version. And Eomer was in Helms doom and didn't came with Gandalf. Even the decision of the ents was described in another way in the book.

__________________

my mistake I shall re-read the book I think.
But never again I shall see again this movie

__________________

There is no way that anyone could adapt that story to the screen while keeping every intricate, stupid little detail intact. The director interpreted the books in his own way, and has done a great job in outlining all the necessary storypoints and characters.

"Oh fuck! Aragorn isn't supposed to jerk Legolas off with one hand! Tolkien specifically wrote that Aragorn would handle Legolas' elven shaft with 2 hands and work him to an intense and almost dwarf-like elvish orgasm!"


All it takes is one net nerd to start the critical negative ball rolling, that's all the the average mouse clicker needs to voice his own opinion--SOMEONE ELSES. One motherfucker bags it, and soon after he has an army of idiot net cunts saying the exact same motherfucking thing. This may come across as me being some twisted, die-hard Rings movie eccentric who hates the books, but it's not. I'm only tired of the same old shit here, if you guys are gonna slag the flicks at least gather your own opinions instead of repeating what every other jackoff does and thinking you're in some secret "cool" club.

Of course this doesn't apply to all of you who've posted in this thread, I'm sure those of you I'm talking about it know it.

Can't wait another month to see the conclusion of this fantastic trilogy?.

Here's what happen at the end......

FREUDO FAILED TO HIS MISSION.... AND SAURON SURVIVED MWHAHAHA!!!!!!!.....

Here's the proof

__________________

Sauron isn't even going to appear in the next movie

__________________

I wouldn't be so sure......God knows Jackson's already changed enough shit in the previous 2 movies.


And DELETE.......that picture is GENIOUS!
