90 days....

[XRogue]

.....till Return of the King on December 17th. Everyone ready your tissues and your catheters.

[XMEN Ashaman DTM]

I'm going to the all-day showings I think. Hehe.

Should be good!

Plus I think I'm going to get the extended version of RotK when it comes out next year.

:D

[Aluscia]

I'll be getting all of the special editions, and I will be attending an all-day showing if I can...

[XRogue]

Oy. And here I thought I was dedicated because I am going in costume. :o

[Ghryphen]

:eek:

[Stang]

Cant wait!

[KitZune]

I'll show up in my black cloak with my fake sword... RingWraiths forever!!!!!

[Stang]

Take a picture I want to see you guys all dressed up :).

[XRogue]

:evil


The only bad thing about going as a hobbit is that my hair will not curl......and I cannot pass for anything else.

[Aluscia]

I don't know what I'd go as... Myabe I'll re-dye my hair blonde, and pull it back really tight, and try Legolas or Galadriel...

[Walks on Clouds]

I was actually called 'that Legolas' during the Medieval faire week at Visby this summer. Did you know that?

[XRogue]

I do now. :p :D

Seriously, Laur, go as Galadriel.


Did I tell you that I heard of a lady who dressed as Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, complete to the spoons dropping out of her umbrella, at the FOTR premiere in NYC?

[Stang]

Dang :eek:

Where are the pictures of these people all dressed up? I wanna see how creative they get :).

[XMEN Ashaman DTM]

I'm going as myself.

I'm sorry... I saw the Star Wars geeks during the premier of Ep II, and Conan O'Brien's accomplice, Triumph, doing interviews with them.

The interviews were hilarious.
The people were... enthusiastic about the movie. :D

[XRogue]

Try looking at theonering.net
Sometimes they have pics of ppl dressed up in line parties.

*edited to add*

Here is a site done by a lady who makes knock offs of movie costumes for ppl-some of which are being worn at RingCon and the like. http://www.moviecostumes.com/lordof-my.htm

[Steele]

why do you need tissues?

[Walks on Clouds]

Ah... the beatuy of innocence... ;)

[XRogue]

Hmmm, let's see, the war to end them all, several major character deaths (not saying who or how many), 3 weddings..... a few little things like that do tend to make the tears flow.

Or you could just find out by reading the books, Steele. :D

[Cerberus]

I'll be there

[Stang]

Men just dont like to admit that they do cry :p .

I want the dvd of the Two Towers now!!! I wanna watch it now!! :D

[XMEN Ashaman DTM]

Go to Fred Meyer's and get it. :p


I'm waiting for the extended version that comes out in November. :D

[XRogue]

Me too. :)

And they'd better at least do something toward fixing Faramir in it.:mad:


Is anyone going to the screenings of the first two Extended Editions in early December? I might.

[Stang]

I want the extended versions so Ill just have to wait.

Most likely not, if I want to watch them that badly I rather sit in my own house that way when its a tinkle break I can stop the movie and not miss anything :).

[XMEN Ashaman DTM]

I'm going. I'll wear Depends if I have to.

[XRogue]

Don't you anyway? :p :rolleyes:

[XMEN Ashaman DTM]

Nope. Just ask Gambit or Stang how many times I'll let everyone know that I have to get up and use the potty during a Tribes practice or match. :D

[Stang]

I seems to happens more during a match :D.

Maybe you should start wearing them everywhere :D.

[XMEN Ashaman DTM]

Nah. I remember when I was about a year old and wearing diapers. Poo sticking to your butt is not a good feeling. :(

[XRogue]

:o TMI!!:eek:

[Stang]

Im glad I cant remember that feeling :barf .

[Cerberus]

DOOD THAT IS SOFA KING RAD!

[XRogue]

Adding a link to the ROTK trailer. :D

[Stang]

OooooOoooooo I have waiting for you to post that :D.

Geez what torture we have to wait another 3 months!!! :cry

[XRogue]

I have been waiting 20 years. What's another 3 months?

Or if you want real torture, think of Christopher Lee (Saruman in the films). He's been a Tolkien fan since the 1950's and has read the books every year for all that time. That's torture. Of course, he got to be in the films.

[KitZune]

Christopher lee is awesome... I wish I could be Saruman... only I'd do things better.. I'd totally burn down those ents before they even had a chance to storm my tower... Mwa ha ha... who needs forests anyway?

[XRogue]

Umm, that would be a radical change from the books, dontcha think?

[KitZune]

Just saying I'd make a better Saruman than Saruman was... cuz I'm more better.

[Gambit]

It wasn't just the ents. In the book the ents got most of the trees of Fangorn to besiege Isengard. Saruman didn't really have the oomph to burn an entire forest down on short notice like that.

(Besides which, that much fire would've made the air around Isengard unbreathable due to smoke or oxygen deprivation. :) )

[KitZune]

But I would have slash and burned them MONTHS ago... progress is all that matters... isengard would have had a whole array of awesome ballistae and siege towers... there would be no stopping me.. hell I'd even take on Sauron and keep the one ring for myself.

[Stang]

Ring is bad, very bad.

[XRogue]

But it's my Precious!:eek:

[Stang]

He still creeps me out! :eek: :eek: :eek:

[Gambit]

Um, if you burn the forest down just because, then what do you have to fuel the forges you need for arming your orcs? :) There's crafty, and there's evil mastermind, and then there's the little matter of resource management... ;)
