Yeah, his eyes do change. But I meant the change from Andy Serkis with appliances to CGI Gollum. The eye sockets changed, the bone orbits, from what you could apply onto a human skull to what could only have been done digitally. The shift was so subtle I wasn't really aware I'd noticed it the first few viewings.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

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".

Oh, I see what you mean, Beverly; it hadn't occurred to me that that was the shift from human actor to CGI. Very nicely done.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
(Two more weeks, right?)
Maybe if you are a nice girl, I'll bring it with me. :))
And what Beverly said. It was eerie the change from Andy Serkis to CGI Gollum. Amazing.

I really need to add "Must make everyone think I am the best at everything" on my things to work on with therapist. It's just, where should it go? before "Must make everyone think I am pretty/smart/funny." or "Must have all attention, all the time."?

Aimee, the theatrical DVD usually doesn't have Easter Eggs. As for the extended, one egg that Jackson has already said is going to be included is some footage from a press interview at the European premiere in Berlin. Dom was there (he grew up in Germany), and Elijah was being interviewed via satellite, so that the reporters in Berlin could see and hear him, but he could only hear them in LA. Knowing this, Dom pretended to be a German reporter and started asking him the most obnoxious questions possible, which Elijah tried very politely to answer without losing his cool.

Stop that, Empress dear. We all have that impulse. And you are remarkably generous, as well, with your time and your concern and your love, so you canNOT be a true attention whore. I know several of those, and you ain't one.
