I wanted to get there, like, two and a half hours early, but my dad got up late. *gr* Oh well, we still got perfect seats. <P>Abedithon le,<P>~*~Aranel~*~

I read from two sources that the RotK theatrical version will be <B>210</B> minutes long!! That's 3 hours and 30 minutes! That just made my day! <BR>See you later! <BR>~M

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Hey, yeah! It's only 20 DAYS until the EV of Towers is out!!! Yay!!!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>And additionally the ROTK game from Electronic Arts comes out on the 6th, in only 8 days! Here is my thinking, okay, I get the game, it keeps me tied over until the Extended Editon, the Extended Editon keeps me tied over until all the interviews and press for ROTK starts, and all the press keeps me tied over until the 17th (and then of course all the holiday stuff will start at that time, and addtionally I also have a trip to Baltimore in about 2 1/2 weeks). I think I will be fine, but I still can't wait to see ROTK!

(Why does it say Happy Halloween on the OB files? It isn't til tomorrow!!!!)<P>20 days? Really???? Excellent!!!!!!! That breaks down the time nicely!!!!<P>Two and a half hours???? What on earth would you have done to fill the time? Wouldn't there be a film on at that time???

I've heard there's going to be a new RotK (or slightly new) trailer in front of Matrix: Revolutions and Elf, both of which incidentally I want to see.

I want to see Matrix:Revolutions, but I'm grounded til Christmas. (That is another reason being 15 is annoying.)<BR>I really hope I can get out of being grounded in time to see ROTK!!!!

I definitely belong to this group. I live in a little place in Asia where everything seems to arrive late and that includes THE RETURN of THE KING. It's gonna be screening in January NEXT year. <P>Makes me wanna do a gollum, you know, travel to a country where it shows on time ( ) so I could see the precious!!!<P>Aaaargh!!!!! I need help.

I had brought my friend's GBA, and a copy of Silm, so my dad and I spent a lot of the time waiting in the theater reading that. I just wanted to get there early so we could get primo seats, and so we could say we were the *first* ones in the theater. We did get great seats, so I'm not complaining, but I wanted to get there earlier. <BR> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I read from two sources that the RotK theatrical version will be 210 minutes long!!

Only 48 days? That's a bit soon, isn't it? I feel way too unprepared. I don't think I could emotionally handle anything Denethor related for quite some time. I'm far too involved with him now. May need to postpone it until February.

You people only have to wait 48 days!!!<P>I have to wait <I>till it comes out on DVD</I><P>

We'll probably need to start that support group really early! <BR>I definitely need to join this group, too. When do tickets for opening day go on sale??<BR>Arwen

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I have to wait till it comes out on DVD<BR><HR></BLOCKQUOTE> What???!!!!!!!!! Good grief!!!!!!!! How come? What country are you from?????

Unfortunately I do live here (Asia) And it will be shown January 2004 (really, really, really sucks! ). Because in my country there's this sort of filmfest for the whole month of December (our "Oscars" month), so all cinemas show just the local films. So all the films (which includes RotK) that came out December in the US gets pushed to January .<P>Maybe I should take away all the calendars in the house to make the wait easier ?

If I'm lucky, this year my parents will actually remember to buy tickets in advance. On the opening day of TTT, it sold out at nine in the morning! I wasn't very happy, especially since, all the theatres in town and anywhere nearby were sold out for a few days.

You'll have to remind them then.

Call me stupid, but what's wrong with Star Wars? *dodges togeter with <B>Elfearz</B>*<P> Guess what's happening to me?! On December the 16, there will be an LOTR-marathon somewhere near me! First they are going to show the EE's from FOTR and TT, and after midnight, Rotk will be shown! <P>What's wrong you say, why are you crying? I'll tell you why, I'm not allowed to go!! *BIG sob* My mom is so mean! It's on a Tuesday, so the next day I still have to go to school.

The 19th, Aethelwine? I'll probably have to wait til the 27th at the earliest!!! I'm grounded, for pity's sake!!!!!! Grounded til Christmas for talking on MSN. How ridiculous is that?<BR>I have no idea what is happening with Trilogy Tuesday here. The cinemas are really disorganised. I wonder if I would be allowed to go, if there was one near? Oh, I feel for you Aethelwine, I really do!!! How harsh!!! I mean, how many times in our lives will there be something like that????

And I feel for you, <B>Elentari</B>! Waiting till the 27th?!?!?! <P>Parents are mean, aren't they?<BR>I'm sure they come from Mars, or Venus or something... They even read my post when I'm writing them! What about privacy?!?!<P>Anyway, I'll just continue pestering them, till they let me go! *I can be so naïve!*<P>Love,<P>Aethelwine.<p>[ November 02, 2003: Message edited by: Aethelwine ]

Cannot wait! I cannot wait! I must have it now! please! I need ths movie! It's my life! Sure, they keep going way off the books, but the trailer makes me cry so hard, and I wanna see it! I wonder if they'll show Legolas's little boat he made. *breaks down crying*

Awww, Aethelwine!!! I think they must come from Mordor... <P>What little boat???

*unloads an 18-wheeler full of Kleenex*<P>I think we'll all need this. I won't be able to see RotK until the 18th or 19th most likely. I have school on the 17th (midterms to be precise), and unless the guy upstairs really really really loves me and decides to make my tests on the next day really really easy, my parents probably won't let me.

Hey, you think you can out Archer (?) me! HA!

Here's some news from <A HREF="http://ringbearer.org" TARGET=_blank>Ringbearer.org</A> About Legolas' next stunt:<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> TORN posted this small spoiler quote from Orlando Bloom, who was the on 'So Graham Norton' last night ...<P>"Orlando was on 'So Graham Norton' tonight. He was mainly astonished at the information Graham gave him that there are now over a million web sites dedicated to him, but revealed the following about ROTK: <P>Bloom: "The fans loved me sliding down the stairs in the 2nd film, and Pete was looking for something which, basically was going to top all of that. And he said it to me, he was, like, alright son, wait for this one! And I went out for 3 days of reshoots and basically was just hanging on wires, and climbing up things and swinging around....so its gonna be quite an extravagant thing, because by the time they've cut me swinging on ropes and flying all over the place in with the special effects they do really well at Weta Digital, which is Peter's company, it'll be killer! I hope, I think. I'm sure." <BR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Is he going to play SuperMan for a bit, like Gandalf played Zorro on the hill? <P>Thankfully (changing back to the original subject), I am allowed to go to RotK on the opening day (at the traditional time of around 4:00 pm) and I will, even if I have a test or two the next day, I'll risk not using my common sense. And I'll go in my flip-flops with my Frodo costume in the cold. That's the fun of it.<BR>See you later!<BR>~M<p>[ November 02, 2003: Message edited by: Morquesse ]

Oh my God! I just saw the Return of the King trailer for about the fiftieth time, and I just wept! The music is brilliant, the acting is brilliant, the lines are brilliant, by Eru, EVERYTHING is just, plain BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!

The reason I can't see it till it comes out on DVD is because my family doesn't believe in going to theaters. I had to wait till FotR and TTT came out on DVD to see it so I guess I'll survive.

Okay it's bad enough that the movie comes out in January in my country. But I think what's worse is that I've been watching too many movies recently and NEVER seen the ROTK trailer YET. So I guess if it all makes you weep, I better start carrying a box of Kleenex if it caught me unawares ( I think my friends will disown me when I start sobbing, 'cuz when I saw Pirates I practically squealed most of the time and they stuffed me with their jackets to shut me up )<P>Going back to my misery, all I can do now is stand in front of a ROTK poster and probably drool.

Midnight show, all the way. I'm gonna get to the theater at about 8:00 or 9:00 AM to ensure a spot at the head of the line, and then PARTY! Me and all my friends are gonna dress up, and I'm gonna bring lembas and entdraught... and Skittles. It'll be great!!!<P>Abedithon le,<P>~*~Aranel~*~

I think that *SPOLIERS!!!! FLEEE!!!!*<P>bit Orli's talking about, Morquesse, is where he does some acrobactics using Mumakils' ropes as props - or so they say!<P>*END OF THE SPOILINGS!!! COME BACK!!!*<P>Any way...*muchs on cheese*...I think I'm just going to take all this cheese now...food is all that's going to get me through this long month and a half. *Steals the lembas* Mmm...spiritually tasty, just like in Mordor. <P><BR>PS: I know not who Meela is, but I say she's quite right to be a Denethor fangirl!<BR>Unless she wants Farmair to die. Then she must BURN!!!

hope you don't mind me plopping my little random self in. i've got yoo-hoo & cheese sticks...does that help any? so, i haven't seen any of the trailers for RotK yet, don't know why but my brother, sister & i decided we wouldn't see them until we watched the whole movie. BAD MOVE! but i can't let them beat me now!<BR> however i'm rethinking getting started on this..i've had a bad headache on & off for 2 or so days now & now i am pretty certain i getting VERY SICKLY! this isn't helping my poor little brain. >sigh,cough,hack,choke,spasm,cough< ugh. oh! i do have tylenol,extra-strength migraine something-or-other, ibuprofen, & i just learned cpr, heimlich, & hyperventalation, manuevers, if anyone needs my services.<BR> need rest! need health! need RotK!<BR>good. night.

You don't know who I am?? *faints*<P>You'd better not try and wrestle in on my man... *hugs Denethor tightly*

oooh some competition? (ten bucks on Meela) *grabs popcorn and watches the show*<P>anyway, to be more on topic I was talking to my friend about Rotk and it's got me all excited.
