Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
I'm seeing it in a couple of hours.
I've heard that Frodo keeps the ring!
Maybe Peter Jackson is setting up a sequel. :lol:
:Frodo:

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
i didn't like it at all, and didn't liek the other two. but i went becuase my friends wanted to! i thought it was tedious and boring, with the most irritating ending ever (because i kept thinking "yes it's finished!" only to be dealt a cruel blow). in the majority of the film nothing was happening, and the onyl worthwhile part was the battle and that wasn't amazing.
i don't like it, but i'm sure people will be like omgwtf it's an excellent story you are a twat and have a bad imagination. well i don't care, i don't like it and think the storyline is rubbish and i hope i never have to sit through and watch any of them ever again.

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
Mmmmm saw it this morning.
I thought it was very good, the best of the three.
I liked:
The scenery - it was exactly how I'd imagined it.
The scene where Pippin stabs thingy Angor (I forget his name) and Eowyn kills him. That was how I imagined it.
The fights - I was worried it'd be just the same as Helm's Deep, but it was not even similar.
How the story kept very close. They kept all the bits I was worried they might chop, which I loved. The end I was a bit disappointed with, as the hobbits didn't go back to the Shire, but oh well.
That they didn't try too much with the comedy on Pippin and Merry again. Gimli made a few jokes, but they were not many, and were funny.
I didn't like:
The lack of concentration on Faramir and Denethor. They brushed over these two very important characters.
The end. The hobbits should have gone back to the Shire and faced "Sharky" at the end, not have a long drawn out thing with Sam getting married and Bilbo getting on a boat.
The Arwen thing. So boring.
The lack of Saruman!
I don't understand something though. When they light the fires of Gondor, check where all those fires are. On the tops of deserted random mountains, miles in between each other. And no huts or settlements around them. WHO HAS THE SUCKY JOB OF SITTING THERE DAY AFTER DAY JUST WAITING FOR THE PREVIOUS FIRE TO BE LIT?
Worst. Job. Ever.

The scene where Pippin stabs thingy Angor (I forget his name) and Eowyn kills him. That was how I imagined it. << never read the books (i do intend to now tho) so i dont know about that i just thought her line was far too cheesy
The fights - I was worried it'd be just the same as Helm's Deep, but it was not even similar. <<< yes (but undead should have had more of a part in the fights - as in what you saw)
How the story kept very close. They kept all the bits I was worried they might chop, which I loved <<< The story was good but i believe they missed some kinda important bits out (dunno really tho).
The end I was a bit disappointed with, as the hobbits didn't go back to the Shire (in the book is that??? they do in the film), but oh well.
That they didn't try too much with the comedy on Pippin and Merry again. Gimli made a few jokes, but they were not many, and were funny. << guess so

(ah explains above a bit) << i dont agree totally no sam shouldn't have got married was just daft, bilbo should have just been left out, but Frodo had to leave imo.
The Arwen thing. So boring. << ?? which bit?? i didnt think any of it was boring at all,
The lack of Saruman! << one of the kinda important missing bits.
I don't understand something though. When they light the fires of Gondor, check where all those fires are. On the tops of deserted random mountains, miles in between each other.

Well, if they build the signal beacons in the valleys, where the people live, then hardly anyone could see them.

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
I thought it was a great film, except the ending, which they could have compressed into 10 minutes (or less) and kept the saruman scenes in.
But then again that would give people no reason to arrange an overdraft for the special extended umpteen-dvd collector's edition, would it?

Yeah, i know what you mean. I was almost convinced Frodo and Sam were going to go into a full on kiss at the end...

in agreement too (looking back over it) - and then they spoil the camp theory with Sam having a wife, but he might be bisexual.
isn't Golem btw asexual? as in "sexless". interesting film, they explored man in many ways. Heteros, gays, bi's and even asexuals.
that's why it's interesting Bloomers. :smith:

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
compared to all the othercrap that came out in the last moth this movie was pure brilliance.
(but, for some strange reaon i didnt like the end, although it was pretty much like in the book, except for the saruman-part)

Obviously you're not a Tolkien fan, so you shouldn't have expected to have liked it. I mean, I'm sure the Harry Potter movies are great but I'm not a fan, so I try to avoid them.
I thought it was great, haven't read the books since like middle school so a few things did surprise me, and there was more than a few 'whoa' moments during the battles. I do wish he had just picked an ending and stuck with it tho, even having been forewarned of the false endings by a review I still kept expecting credits to start rolling.
Anyone know if the Sharkey ending will be on the extended DVD?

Utterly utterly outstanding movie, spoiled by the geeky fans who STILL demand it to be more like the book.
Which deeply saddens me.

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
I don't really care that much if it's more/less like the book. It's just that some of the bits where Peter Jackson did stray from the book, he made it worse. There was no need to change Saruman's character (or role in general) for instance.
Some of the changes I understand, and some were very necessary. Others less so.

Oohh that's SO not fair, they told us when we got our parking ticket stamped ( for free parking) that there would be a break, but did it happen? NO!
Half the audience nearly died from burst bladders!!
And was it me or did Legolas ( the only reason to watch the films, droooool! ) not speak much?

I thought the ending was weak and fragmented; but the rest was pretty good.

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
Yes, the ending definately dragged on for way to long. And at each of those scenes in though "And now its finished" and then I found out it wasnt ((((...
Apart from the way they cut the whole "shire + Saruman thingie" I think they stuck to the book very well ..

that would have required yet another hour and it would not have fit in. i think the end was already long enough.
for the book everything is fine, but in the movie it didnt look right.

i got the same gay vibe while reading the book though. important thing is that it didn't feel sexual (to me), so that's about as good as can be done.
as the love men can have for one another is a major theme in the books, you know you will always be walking a thin line...

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
That film was fantastico.
Shelob was sufficiently nightmarish, and the Mūmakil kicked ass.
The battle for Osgiliath was a bit oddly handled I thought, but the siege at Minas Tirith was absolutely the best battle in the trilogy by miles.
And the Witch King of Angmar Nazgūl bloke got his ass kicked by a girl. HAH!

oh yes that was very well done most of the cgi characters where but some of the 'blue screen' was quite poor i thought, and you could tell many times in the film that the hobbits were played by taller people which i dont think you could before.

Bah stupid scene - an undefetable creature killed with two blows but she gets hit twice with a mace (once on the head) about 1/2 her size and gets up to kill him, wtf no no no!!!! and it was just so cheesy - so wrong.

That's true, a lot of the compositing with little folk in the shot looked really hastily done. Even Gollum looked a bit poo in his first scene with Frodo and Sam. Still kicked ass though - I'm going to go see that again!

Re: LOTR - Return Of The King
i just read that there is more than 1 hour of the movie missing. Saruman for example is supposed to die at the beginning of the movie, but it was just cut out.
i want the extended version
