Last night I dreamed that one of the TV networks was showing clips of Return of the King on TV. It was November and very cold and dark outside. I was watching the TV in a barn, wrapped up in wool blankets. I thought that it was just going to be a brief preview, but the movie kept going on and on. Then I realized.... they were showing the whole thing on TV! I was so excited! The movie seemed relatively normal. However, the Shelob's Lair scene came up and the background music was, well.... horribly out of place. Instead of spooky and suspenseful music, the song "I'm A Believer" starts playing. It was so unexpected that it made the whole scene look like a bizarre comedy. I was like.... "OK.... what in the world is THAT." As Frodo and Sam fought the spider, their movements became jerky and stilted, like in an old silent movie. And the song played on. I believe I was still in shock. "Um... this doesn't really follow the books...? Huh... wha? eh? errm..."
Let's just hope this dream isn't a dark omen of things to come ...
