Hi Bethberry,

sort of an interesting choice of subject for the film, perhaps not an obvious one, even given that LoTR and The Hobbit are 'taken'.

Though I did hear somewhere that JRRT once woite something on 'The Journeys of Aragorn' that has sadly been lost.

I wonder if they found the Aragorn/Viggo looky-likey chap before deciding!

Cheers,

Tim

I think it is nothing short of a brilliant choice, precisely because it isn't obvious but at the same time does maintain that tie with the stories that people are the most familar.

I am secretly hoping that the next step in this what will hopefully become a developing saga will be somebody making something regarding Aragorn's travels in Rohan and Gondor.

I guess its not such a secret hope now...*has fevered visions of seeing Aragorn burning the Havens of Umbar on film*

(hopes somebody with a passion for filmmaking and a ton of time on their hands is reading...)

And since it seems to be primarily about Strider, films
on early Aragorn/Arwen and her brothers journeys
to avenge their mum.

Hi Tuor!

Well,this is an absolutely incredible idea!The story of Elladan and Elrohir is one I keep saying to those that know LOTR only from the film-especially from the cinema version -,as it is my firm belief they shouldn't have been excluded.So,for the audience of the net,those fan-films is a good way to expand their image of Middle -Earth to a far larger image.

Anyway,I' M COUTING THE HOURS TO THE PREMIERE!

I thought it was pretty entertaining, very well made. Could have been a little less wham blam though, a little more thoughtful perhaps? Amazingly done on that budget though, acting was surprisingly good. Could have been a LOT more original too much PJ for my liking, I'm scared about talking more until more people have seen it.
