I really think that Tolkien just put chess in there because it makes middle earth seem like it actaully did exist at one point. Same with the armor and weapons as Bombur said. It just seems more...

In the thread Belin showed, someone said it was because the dwarves, elves, and humans were making rings. True. Without the other rings, the title wouldn't work. Actually, it might be Lord of the...

Good points. But I think the ring was chosen because yes it is smaller and it does signify power. Where as a sword or another weapon, well, is just a weapon. And it wouldn'r make sense either. It...

Basically it went through how certain scenes were made. It showed new and old stuff I think. And the actors talked about it too. It gave some brief info on making the Helm's Deep battle. It showed...

I have direct tv also. You can't watch channels like WB, FOX, UPN, NBC, etc. through Direct tv, but you can go around that. Just turn off your direct tv and go to channel 2 or whatever on your tv. Or...

Diamond18 I think that may be true. PJ, I think, had allowed the actors to voice opinions about characters (especially their own) so if Viggo interpeted it a certain way and PJ agreed, they might...

I think the way PJ protrayed him did show him grow (well...for once we agree, Tigerlily ). I think that PJ will give the final development of Aragorn the way it should be. PJ just went about a...

Oh, don't get me wrong Nenya. I do agree that reading is a good exercise for the mind, but sometimes certain people (I know a few) think to much when they read. And those people actually didn't like...

I liked a the extra scenes, however, I didn't love them. To me, the part w/Aragorn by himselfbtalking about his burden did sound corny, and I agree with Turoch about it. Anyways, a lot of the new...

Gollum attacked from behind not because he was a coward, but because he was weaker. It wasn't cowardly but smart and cunning. He was a very sneaky creature. Despite all that torment in his mind from...

LOL Birdland.<P>Yes its a sad song and I agree that he's talking to Frodo about the corruption of the ring. I like the song. However, if it's in the movie I'll still like the song but I'll hate PJ...

I think that that's a good bet you'd have going there, Kalimac. Although I think that only a fool would bet against you. Since the Barrow Downs were left out, the hobbits never got the Westernesse...

Very good Orual. I don't hate guns, but I do love swords. Yes they are more honorable but the real reason I like them is because they are more classic.

You said

I do agree with you. I think...

Yes I love gollum. I like him because he's funny. I also like him a lot because he has sort of a split personality. ON one side you have the ring greatly influencing his mind. On the other, there is...
