This past Christmas Hubby and I said, "What are we going to do on Christmas afternoon? There's no Ring movie!" Hubby added, "He'll have to do the Hobbit and the Silmarrilion, then."
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.
'Touched'
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.

Oh, are you sure "philistines" didn't pop up in the back of your mind somewhere?
I have to admit it skipped through mine...although more at the times the audience applauded in inappropriate places, but whatev. They applauded, which was nice. Standing ovation, even, which was another thing I'd forgotten about Americans; they seem to give standing o's for everything.
The young boy soloist was pretty good, and the mezzo-soprano was awesome.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Those pictures gave me chills, Raq. The weight of the history in that place is just incredible.

Does this mean we can have the Hobbit?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I think the Hobbit rights are separate from the LotR rights. So nothing has changed on that front, unfortunately.

I saw this press release on my Wizard News email and was at first very excited, but reading more carefully, I realized that they are releasing the COMPLETE soundtrack of FoTR only -- 4 disks of just FoTR. I guess next year: TTT and in 07: RotK.
Sigh.

RotK was on Encore today and will be again tonight at 9 Central.
