Boba Rhett Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 Some of you may have noticed that I've been gone all day today. Well, that's because I've been Christmas shopping but most importantly, I was also waiting to get tickets to the midnight showing of LOTR..... and I did it! Anyone else going tonight? If I can still talk and move my hands after seeing the movie, I'll write up a short review.
Boba Rhett Posted December 19, 2001 Author Posted December 19, 2001 Nobody else is going to the Midnight showing?
lord_adelgard Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 How lucky u ARE MAN !!!!!! If only i didn't have these bloody finals......THAT'S NOT FAIR ! I have to wait till the 21st nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
Guest Sarcastic Saint Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 HAH!! thats nothing....though the movie is running here probably even as i "speak" however i cant go untill the first or second week of Januari....Damn the gods...grrrrr!!!!
duder Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 hehehe im going this evening, Im looking forward to your review. It should get me excited for the showing!
duder Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 I thought it had a worldwide release of the 19th? Ah well maybe UK dosnt suck as much as I thought!
Heavyarms Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 No, I would have to walk to the movies, my parents wouldn't let me, so I'll wait for my chance later.
Boba Rhett Posted December 19, 2001 Author Posted December 19, 2001 Well, It's nearing 6am and I fear I may pass out soon if I don't get to bed so until later today I'll just give you guys the abridged version of my review. *clears throat* [review] SWEET JESUS! Score: 10 [/end review] Any questions?
Boba Rhett Posted December 19, 2001 Author Posted December 19, 2001 Heh, to fully explain that it would take longer than my review but if you want a really really vague idea.... *spoilers* hobbit gets ring, hobbit gives ring to hobbit, hobbit sets out to take the ring to mordor, Fellowship of 9 is created on the way, lots of fighting happens, he gets there, destroys the ring, goes home, saves the shire, the end. That's, of course, all three books. The movie ends right after you know who attacks you know who and then you know who gets killed. *wink* *wink*

I know the story ... I wanna know why the movie is good, I already know the book is good.
Zygomaticus Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 hey ive just started reading the first boook would u recommend i continue reading or read afterr seeiing the movie
Guest SlashAndBurn Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 This goes out to whoever invented finals....*clears throught* CURSE YOU!!!! MAY SAURON HAUNT YOU FOREVER!!!!...*clears throught*. I'm in the same situation that lord_adelgard is in. I have my last final tomorow so HOPEFULLY I'll be able to see it tomorow night if it isnt sold out.
Tie Guy Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 My friend had tickets to the midnight show, but i don't care that much, i'll go see it sometime this week.
darthfergie Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 WAIT ONE MINUTE HERE!!! Rhett did you say they put ALL the books into ONE movie??? HOW LONG IS THE MOVIE?!?!?!? 6-7 HOURS LONG????
Young David Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 That's not what Rhett said. This year we'l see the Fellowship, next year the two towers and the year after the Return of the king. The films will follow the books on that. (But the death of someone in the beginning of the second book is put at the endo of the first movie ... if you know what I mean) I'm curious how someone who hasn't read the book and won't read the book will stay away from the spoilers for the next two years ...
darthfergie Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 oh...okay...I was scared there for a minute...
Silenthunter Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 So you guys are saying it shows Boromir get killed in FotR?
captain_drake Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 hey guys i read a review that said that lotr was boring and not worth it now i know thats bull#%$ but what if it's true!!?!?
Guest SlashAndBurn Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 Dont worry about it too much Drake...every review I've read prety much praise the movie as one of hte best they've ever seen.
Xirion Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 just saw it, wow, i cant wait till next year, woot! go see it, it is one fo the best movies!
Guest SlashAndBurn Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 Cool. Thanks. From what I've heard you dont even realize the time went by and that it leaves people with their jaws on the floor.
CaptainRAVE Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 They sure can make sequels quickly these days ....hope they dont rush it
Uutont Fær Uulion Posted December 19, 2001 Posted December 19, 2001 The reason they can get sequels out so fast is that they shot the movie footage for all three movies at the same time. They just have to do all of the special effects and editing for the other two.
