I am so excited, I will get my EE collector's box day after tomorrow. Part of me still cannot believe it that it will soon be december 10th. *jumps in antisipation* That's what I waited for so many months! _________________ ***Pervy Halbarad fancier*** |

I have been jumping all day today because of that. I only have to get through Criminal Law tomorrow and then it is EE Day! (Plus Criminal Law tomorrow is the last tutorial ever in the entire world because there is no way I am taking that gruesome subject next year, so added bonus ) _________________ Pervy Nazgul Fancier and owner of Fluffy the Fell Beast |

We've got 'em, ladies & gents! I went to pick us up a couple of EEs yesterday before work (I work evenings) and now Scribe and I - once we've done our Open Scrolls duties - will be hunkering down to watch this baby.
Now, where's my bucket? Oh. Here.

My friends and I are going to have a party, watching all three on their big screen tv sometime next week. Hopefully, I still need to talk to them when they'll be able to do that. _________________ [ ] |

I've seen it!!!!!!!!!!! I've seen it. It came out here yesterday and I spent most of the night and today watching it with a friend (female ) and a bottle of champers.
SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Highlights: the drinking competition between Legolas and Gimli and the Corsairs and the Dead! Lots more Eowyn fighting and lots more Faramir. Indeed, you finally get an idea of Faramir's second sight. And a glimpse of He-who-Robbie-thinks-has-a-big-nose.
Dunno - there was so much to see and in the extras, you get to see Viggo kissing Billy. And I mean really kissing Billy! lol. Hilarious. (Apparently they were trying to get Sean A into the mood for kissing Rosie.)
Lots of tears as well and not only mine. |

In fact I may be suffering from post-LOTR- trauma....
I mean -what is there left to look forward to? What could ever top this?
Oh and another touching bit was about Cameron Duncan. You'll understand who he was when you've seen the extras. So very sad and just showed how wonderful Peter Jackson is. |

I'm so excited about the cast commentary and extras.
And, of course, the actual movie!!!
...
But mostly the commentaries.  _________________ ||Lex||Yoda||Sooker||

Ladies and gentlemen... I have the DVD! Yes, it's mine, my own, my precioussss!!!
I bought my copy on Thursday evening, to be exact... at a game/RPG/video/DVD shop here in Reykjavík, who had got the permission to begin selling the DVD at midnight the 10th. So being the geek that I am, I went there and got the DVD... plus two LOTR posters they were giving away with the DVD (I got one of Aragorn and one of Frodo). And then I went home and did what I don't advise anyone to do... I watched the whole movie through, and went to sleep at 5 am! And then I woke up shortly before 8 am to go to work *yawn* And then when I got home from work I just slept and slept and slept...
Today I've been watching the extras... I'm not quite finished with them, but I do like! And I look forward to the commentaries...
As for the extended edition itself... of course I can't give out much spoilers for our dear American friends here, but... if you love Éowyn, Faramir, Merry & Pippin, you're going to love it. Oh, and not to forget Saruman!
I'll perhaps write a more detailed review later on...  |

Bwhaha!
I was really amused when I saw it.
And of course the first site I could think of for putting it up was OSA.

Nope - a real swing you into my arms and kiss you like I mean it kiss. There was a mention of tongues in the commentary - in any case Billy mentioned seeing lights. Wonderfully hilarious in any case. |
