I wasn't fond of Aragorn going "hey guys, here are some swords", but in all seriousness, the thing tha thappened with Tom that had much later significance was the finding of the swords in the barrow downs, and you couldn't add 20 minutes to the movie just for that, so the decision had to be made.

I was far more annoyed at other stuff in the movie. Each one had something to irk me. In the first it was when Aragorn and Frodo are perched on a swaying tower of stone in Moria, weighing god knows how many tons, and Aragorn says "lean forward" and the swaying rock falls forward and they are miraculously saved. Ugh.

1. like 300 pounds of man/hobbit meat would affect anything under those circumstances.

2. didn't Gandalf display TELEKENETIC powers in the movie? Why couldn't he help.

3. most important -- read Tolkien, and one thing that does NOT really play much of a role in helping the good guys is BLIND, DUMB, STUPID LUCK! It's hard work, dedication, steadfastness in the face of danger and against all odds.

I know I"m obsessed about it, but that scene truly pisses me off. There's absolutely no justification for it from an artistic or drama or "gotta do something different, this is a movie after all" point of view.

I'm a bit unfond of the teleketic battle between Saruman and Gandalf, but I undertsand the need for direct conflict, which doesn't exist in the books.

That swaying rock thing though. Stupid, and without reason.

Harry Dies during a threesome with Ron and Hermi-err, sorry, wasn't supposed to give that away.

already read the series so its good to know that for once they will include more instead of cutting out stuff.

man i must have skipped over that chapter on accident. i had better reread the entire series to find that must read scene LMAO

p.s. what prog did you use to make that? coudlnt of been PS unless you just pasted the face pictures and did a cell shade like technique.

I didn't use any programs. Someone extremely talented created that magnificent piece of art at Rule 34. NSFW.

I did, however, crop out the naughty bits.

like there wands and chocolate toads? LMAO

Yeah, and Hermione's whomping willow.

yeah that might have been a bit much for anyone younger than myself (28) good use of judgment Goatse :thmub:

WARNING -- DRAMATICALLY NSFW

Christ, I could've done without the pedo hentai. :Lin:

Hey, I'm sure there's Tom Brady porn on there. Knock yourself out.

shudders :huh:

Wouldn't the first half be pretty boring? All of the action was at the end.

Can't go into too much detail since SOMEONE didn't read the freaking book yet, but yeah, the boring bits will be in the beginning. They can end the first movie at a cliffhanger of sorts, but I think they can stretch some of the early fighting out.

I don't believe in reading, but I frickin love the movies!
