Ok, I am blown away. My favorite part of the movie will inevitably be the battle scenes. I expect Helm's Deep to be the greatest battle scene ever filmed, until the Battle of Pelanor Fields next year. I am also looking forward to "seeing the Ents lay the smackdown" on Isengard as it was put in another review. None of these scenes, except the actual trailer, had anything like battle or action, yet I am still amazed. You have made my day by posting this.

Maquiladora, you have my sword. I owe you my allegiance.

I don't know how to download it... ecurbh?

Sorry, no luck here. Streaming only, unfortunately. Some heartbreaking stuff, though! I think Eowyn needs a hug...

She sure does need a hug. I hope she doesn't have too much trouble finding one.

My Frodo needs a hug too.

The scenes with Merry and Pippin are wonderful! Glad to be seeing that!

Wow. The pix didn't work, but just the voices and music have tears in my eyes, here at work. Wow, this is really going to be something. > blink <

Did you get the second set of stuff posted up there? - It is downloadable Quicktime clips, so that might work better and satisfy in the interim.

What is it about this trilogy, books, film, characters, whatever - that makes me cry too. I love the characters as if they were my friends.

I know what you mean. LOTR, while I've always enjoyed it, didn't used to affect me that way, when I was younger. But I'm 47 now, and those themes of innocence, loyalty, dogged and unstoppable determination, bravery, loss, sacrifice... the path I've walked has "upped" their value considerably, and given me an experiential context I lacked as a younger man.

I get only the audio. Any suggestions, anyone? Is it more likely my PC (with dial-up), or has the site changed its output?

Your connection just can't support it. It is a 35 MB file - pretty big to be streaming anyway, let alone on dialup. Bummer, because we still can't figure out how to download it. You ought to be able to pick up the shorter new clips I posted later on in the thread.

Someone at TORN has reported where you can download the 16 minute video. The clip itself is 30 MB. It played fine for me in Windows Media Player, but TORN says you might need DivX to play. I would recommend saving it to disk and then watching it, otherwise internet traffic might cause hiccups or slowdowns while watching it.

16 Minute clip

Wonderful James!

Get it if you can folks, while it lasts! It's big. I am clocking it at 17 minutes on cable, which is a long time on cable.

Spoiler alert! Downloadable link above! Right Click JameRetief's link and "save target as" enormous file, but worth it if you can get it in the door.

Sorry for the duplicate pings for some of you that are on both lists.

I used Download Accelerator Plus and it took me about 3 minutes using cable.

It's definitely one of my favorite apps when downloading large files.
