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.
You know I completely missed out on the rebates for people who bought both the theatrical and EE editions of FotR and TTT -- because a. I didn't know about them and b. in the case of FotR I bought the theatrical waaaay later.
So, FYI -- there is going to be a rebate of $5.00 for people who have bought the theatrical release and the EE and $10.00 if you bought the theatrical and the Special Gift EE.
Here is what the new line guy said in the TORN interview:
We aren’t requiring cash register receipts for the theatrical DVD, but proofs-of-purchase and receipts for the Special Extended Edition will be required.
There were also a couple extra tracks that didn't make it to the final soundtracks for the movies...another Annie Lennox song, some music from a trailer that didn't work out. Two Howard Shore tracks that were in the movie but cut from the soundtrack.
It's disturbing and amusing at the same time.
TORN has a rumor of a new tv series set in MiddleEarth.
Also, according to the BBC Weta has the 3rd largest supercomputer in the world.
Does anyone have a rec for a good LotR screensaver (for Windows)?
My favorite screensaver is the one I have at work -- it's a file of LotR photos I've nabbed from everywhere. I have Windows 2000 at work and can do that. I'd forgotten that you can't do that with '98 and was distraught when I went to set my screensaver on my home 'puter.
That must be an addon. Mine don't do that.
Really? I can't believe that the university would do anything but the most basic. . . well, unless they got some huge deal for the many many 'puters they buy all at once.
