Hey, according to TORN today is Viggo Mortensen's birthday!
This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

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.

One of the scenes I'm most hoping to see is the shot of Eomer from the trailer, cradling someone's (Eowyn's?) head on the battlefield and crying. Gives me shivers.
There's a great article in this month's issue of Premiere with pictures by Viggo of some of the cast & crew. I don't know if it's online or not.

I'm hoping for that scene too and Kate -- it's in the promo at the official movie site.
It's one of Eomer's big moments.

Beathen's #1 is going to be included as an "abandoned concept," so they'll probably have an animatic of it.
I think the early scene that sumi referenced is after the opening scene with Frodo and Sam, when they see the statue of the king, with the statue's head crowned in a wreath of flowers --this is probably where they'll move the title card.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
That pic is hilarious! I made it my desktop picture.

Oh, man. I love that scene in the book.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Yeah, I saw that bit (from the screencap) in the promo someone had up. I continue to feel that they didn't get my Eowyn onto the screen, and it makes me sad. Miranda Otto's version is... I dunno. Fragile, rather than brittle. Too warm.
Yay for the scene coming back at all, mind you.
