LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".  

Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".

A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

I loooove the ones of Ian and Jude.

I saw clips of them accepting Best Film and Best Adapted Screenplay. And Fran Walsh continues to be the most adorable woman ever.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The Mortensen interviewer could have been a little brighter, I think. And Billy Boyd is a wee man, I know. But somebody needs to dress him in scale--his suit and tie in those pics make him look like he's wearing a larger man's clothes.

Mmm, not that there's anything wrong with that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is that a sword in your hand, or are you just happy to see ... Legolas?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Great 404 page

So, RotK in Summer '04, EE in Fall '04, Trilogy in '05? -- this was apparently something seen at International Toy Fair 2004.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay! Of course, this way, I can keep pretending it's still going on until 2005. We bought all the original releases, but have only watched other peoples' extended release dvds, with the intent of buying the box set when it comes out. I was unable to convince the SO that we needed all of: a) theatrical release dvds, cause they come out soonest, b) extended release dvds, cause extended!, c) trilogy box set, cause that's the actual product, and possibly any d) collectors editions, cause figurines! Dunno why he didn't buy into it. But I am extremely anxious to get my paws on an extended release trilogy box set.

The responses to that are kinda funny. I would find it extremely odd if they *didn't* release a trilogy box set. We've been counting on it all along.

No shit.

I was startled by people who thought they were being fleeced by the current multiple releases -- is it a secret held by fandom that there was going to be an EE? It's not like X1.5, where it's admitted on disc pretty much that it was an afterthought.

I can't wait to see how pretty or special the trilogy is. I have the theatricals and EEs so far (not platinum, though, and only the theatrical soundtracks). I'm happy.
