      What's the 19th? :confused:


      When I can talk about 64 bit processors and attract girls with my computer not my car, I'll come out of the closet. Until that time...I'm like "What's the ENTER key?" -Hockey on being a geek

              Probably on Sat. I could have gone to the midnight premiere (like I did with the other two) but I have a physics final at 10AM...so I chose to get a good grade rather than see a movie. :)

                    Doesn't matter to me...my nose is going to be firmly implanted in my calculus book. I've got that final on Thursday...then I have to start avoiding the Lounge. ;P Which won't be hard because my super-indulgent, ultra-loving grandparents are coming in to town. Plenty of things to do with them. :)

                                    Megan Forbes wrote: But as movies, and the way they have been done, they have been excellent. Agreed. The movies aren't all that true to the books, but if they had been made to follow the books by the letter, each movie would have had to be about three times as long as they already are. As Peter Jackson (I think it was) said, just the part when the hobbits travel from The Shire to Bree could easily have been made into a three-hour movie itself. But if you want a story a bit more true to the books, get the extended versions (on DVD or VHS) which are rather much longer and (IMHO) much better. That goes especially for The Two Towers which is about 40 minutes longer than the big screen-version. With the first two parts in mind, I actually see the cinema-version of the Return of the King as a rather long trailer for the extended DVD version :)
