I so wish all the Hobbits could do the same commentary on the other DVDs. Dom and Billy would interrupt Sean's pomposity with stupid jokes and innuendo, and Elijah would giggle a lot.
Elijah giggling is a good thing.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

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".

the FOTR EE DVDs are the reason I fell in love with Dom in the first place.
My sistah in Dom love! My hobbit obsession started with the FotR EE cast commentary (I've heard it before - but a while back - and just the once) but I didn't zero in on Dom until the TT audio commentaries.
You should listen to the actors' commentary, right away.
Even though I already had, that was the first thing I did. Actually, I have spent all morning toodling about the house with the various commentaries on in the background. AIFG!!

This is my wish as well. I have to mute Sean during the TT commentaries.
I am usually unaffected by JRD - but the bit during the credits of the cast commentary for FotR where he talks about how 20 years from now people will look back on the films as one of the highlights of their movie going-lives. It caused a tear.
Right now Viggo is telling the story about the scale double not being able to swim on the "Cameras in Middle Earth" documentary. And - yes - he is weirding me out.

The actors commentary on FoTREE is my one true actors commentary.
I am very sad that they didn't do a joint hobbits + smeagol commentary for TTTEE -- I can only hope that they have the hobbits all together for RotKEE. Because SA's comments and the lack of Dom and Billy to smack him down ruined the actors' commentary on TTTEE for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I can only hope that they have the hobbits all together for RotKEE.
According to Billy Boyd, it's just him and Dom together on his track.

I'm very tired of Sean's lectures on theory of acting.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm very tired of Sean's lectures on theory of acting.
I wonder if he lightens up for the last one.

I thought my lectures on theory of acting were quite entertaining and enlightening...
What do you mean you weren't talking about me?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Are your friends also LOTR geeks?
Huuuuuuuuge ones. Hence our desire to go over there.
Because SA's comments and the lack of Dom and Billy to smack him down ruined the actors' commentary on TTTEE for me.
Eek! I didn't mean to ruin. Sorry!
So happy that it's the DomBilleh commentary for RotK! They were so cute and funny together, and while I loved all four of them together, Elijah and Sean get a bit tiring with their constant talky meat-ness. Billy and Dom know the value of a good funny.

You didn't ruin -- they did -- I've already heard SA (Sean Astin) pontificating.
