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.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

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".

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

I don't know if anyone's planning to buy the DVD tomorrow (yeah, right), but if you buy it at Borders, you get a set of 4 posters with it (while supplies last *g*). As if we needed that extra incentive.

Best Buy was giving away to the first 150 RotK customers at each store a copy of the all-LotR Entertainment Weekly special issue and some microwave popcorn and candy. The magazine is pretty cool, but doesn't have too much that looks to be new to anyone who's watched all the documentaries and listened to the commentaries on the extended dvds. Apparently, Toys R Us is handing out a $10 Frodo figure, and they're also price-matching the other stores.

Cereal to add--if anyone interested, I've finally gotten into some fanfic writing of my own. You can check out the two LotR stories I've written here, if you'd like.

Agreed. It was one of those, "okay, I know you people are capitalists, but this is ridiculous" type of situations. Like, those of us cursed with good memories caught details repeated from previous EW articles. I know the poor movie-people did the same interview 100 times, so the same anecdotes are all flying around everywhere, but the least the editors could do was make sure the EW 'special issue' was actually special.

I hear that Borders is giving away 4 posters -- but I'm sure supplies have run out by now.

Not got a lot to say...
Feh, I don't care about giveaways. I headed to Target where I picked RotK up for a mere $14.99.
So far I've watched the first two documentaries on the disk and I have to say that a) The narrator is horrible and b) Apparently the documentaries were created by different teams who didn't do much conferring; there is an unforgiveable amount of replication between the two. Thank god for more Hobbit smack-talk, that's all I can say.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Kind of glad I didn't plan on getting this one.
