Not long, not long...well, I get it on Christmas Day, but I may be reduced to begging before then.

I'm not ashamed to say I cried during the preview *cough* It looks like everything (aside from the Scouring) that I missed during the theatrical release wil be in it...I can't wait!

Ah, guys, I can't watch the clips!

(I keep getting connection timeout!)
*weeps*
gorthaur, I just have to ask you: How's the Houses of Healing scenes? How long? Well made? Do they involve both Faramir and Eowyn?

The HoH is divided into two parts...the first part is when Aragorn heals Eowyn. That's about 1:20 long...it has no dialogue. Just music playing the background while Aragorn heals Eowyn. Then Eowyn wakes up, looks out the window and sees Faramir and their eyes meet. It's played rather nicely, IMO.

The second part is about 45 seconds long and that's when Eowyn and Faramir talk to each other. They're looking out to the Pelennor. Also kinda neat.

Beautiful! Short but apparently beautiful! well, I guess they need more time to show senseless stuff like Saruman and Grima dying gruesome non-canonical deaths... Don't mind my sarcasm, guys, I'm actually very excited about this whole EE thing!

ANother question for Gorthaur: in the HofH, does Aragorn just cure Eowyn or does he do Merry and Faramir too, in canonic fashion? (almost too much to hope for...)

I'm going to have multiple cows!!!!!! I really can't wait this long. Hey, has anyone heard about them putting back the drudan forest? That was my favorite part in the book. I hope they do.
