yes, smeagol was very well played. the song was quite amusing (accompamied by him smashing the fish to death, it was a great combination LOL ). filran, some of those aren't names, their words! (ex: eldar(forgot the r on yours, it means the elves who left cuivienen) and edain (men, any specific type?)) oh, and how could you forget elronds brother, elros? you slacker!

sure what the hell. anything to help me avoid my homework and now that neopets is all f*cked up(or maybe my compy just doesn't like it anymore.) EDIT: actually neopets is working fine. It's my new Firewall. It has a problem with neopets and i'm still trying to figure out what it is. so I can unblock that whenever I play neopets. HA! SEE? EVERYONE HATES NEOPETS! EVEN THE FIREWALL WAYS SO!!!

yes, on the subject of smeagol, what do you think of the fish song that smeagol does by the pool? sort of disturbing, don't you think?

yeah, their huorns, they were once trees that sort of evolved into a simmilar form of the ents but they are not actually ents. as for what the Lady of light said up there, I agree partially, the movie is meant to be a different view of the book and should not be entirely like to the book. by this I mean that minor changes should be made simply because a movie and a book are two entirely different forms of getting a story across. however, there are some changes in the book that I was quite qutraged to see. one of these changes was the absense of Tom Bombadil. now we all know that Tom is not overall an important charracter, but he is an essential to find the bature of the ring itself. it also refers in a way back to ancient times seeing as how tom is an ancient person that "came before the world" suggesting that he is a maiar or a lesser spirit. but sometimes backround information is needed to explain the main storyline if you understand my meaning.)or maybe you don't and take this as senseless rambling ) But the worst book to movie change that PJ (kind of reminds me of PB and J ) made is the altering of frodo's course. how the hell is he gonna make frodo go to gondor??? that completely changes the storyline because the ring was never supposed to go near Gondor. Also it completly alters the personality of Faramir and makes him look way too much like to Borimir, his brother. Faramir was supposed to be stronger in mind than his brother and able to resist the evil temptation of the ring, not to be swayed to take it to his father, the steward. it ruins his good position for the third book where he is held in such reverence by his fellow people. and it kind of defeats the argument that is set between him and his father generated by the death of Borimir. there, that is my point. feel free to argue with it if you want, I am open to your ideas on the subject.

okay, just a few things:
the elf at helms deep thing was horrible. it sucked. end of story.
the "rabid murderous trees"were ents. and they didn't eat the orcs, they more crushed them and stuff because they hated the orcs for senselessly chopping the trees down.
the movie farimir-GAH! HE'S HORRIBLE! WTF DID THEY DO TO HIM???
Frodo Baggins was not old. he was only in his fifties when he goes off on the quest. Bilbo was an old hobbit indeed. he was 131 at the end of the trilogy. but Frodo was not old. :hmmm:
I think they did a good job with theoden, but not the best job, and they could have been better.
Viggo was a VERY good Aragorn. My only complaint was that he could have been a little more dark sounding in the first movie.
I guess Borimir did lead them in a way over caradhras(I think that's how you spell it), but Aragorn and Gandalf also did a bit of the leading there. also, in Moria, Gandalf and Gimli led them. btw, what lines did Gandalf steal? I'm too lazy to look.
What the hell happened to Glorfindel! The person did a decent job playing Awen, but they should have had Glorfindel in it. :hmmm:
stupid directors, they let the stupid trolls live. they should have made it more dark and deadly looking in Mordor.

I remember when ev had that avi. but I'm not sure which I like better. I know who the older one is, but the new one seems to have a better look to it, so I think I will choose that one.
btw, yay! another vote for everous!

well, I guess I vote for everous, because he never yelled at me and killed me and stuff. and auron stole my posts and sent me to anti-spam prison. SS was late in bailing me out of prison, and I just havn't seen remmeh around for a while so he might be dead or something. btw, I voted a while ago so I can't change the tie.
