Hmm, that 'void' comment seems to make little sense. Maybe it's refering to the Void 'outside' the world, where Morgoth languishs? It doesn't really make sense for Sauron to say such a thing, but that's the only Tolkienish 'void' I can think of.

I'm watching the movie right now, on "little-screen" view so I can do more than one thing. Boromir is making a speech to the council of Elrond. Why does Aragorn's accent come out more strongly here than in mnost scenes? Boromir is going a double-take at Legolas' comment, and Frodo's looking quite surprised as well... Boromir doesn't think Gondor even needs a king... Gandalf and Elrond are talking about destroying the Ring.

Shall I go on? Gimli just tried to smash the ring... 2JM, can you tell me what 'it' says just after Gimli smashs it?

Incidentally, the Council is just full of great lines. I love Elrond's line about "cast it back into the fires from whence it came" and Boromir's "One does not simply walk into Mordor" speech.

I can't tell you...this is all I have:

[Gimli grabs an axe and approaches the pedestal]
Gimli: ARGH!!!!
[Gimli strikes the Ring with full force but is repelled back, throwing him to the ground. Concurrently, Frodo sees the Eye of Sauron in his mind and winces in pain. The Ring remains intact with the shards of the axe all around it]
[Whispers in the black tongue issue forth from the Ring]
Elrond: The Ring cannot be destroyed, Gimli, son of Gloin by any craft that we here possess. The Ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom. Only there can it be unmade. It must be taken deep into Mordor and cast back into the fiery chasm from whence it came.
[Ring whispers: Ash Nazg]
Elrond: One of you must do this.
[Dead silence from the council]
