The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

I have some of the pink kind for the cat left over...
To: Bear_in_RoseBear; HairOfTheDog
Kinda disturbed me at the time. Was she also buying really big Hefty bags?
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
During my midnight visit to Walmart to buy the theatrical release FOTR DVD, the woman ahead of me in the checkout line was buying a shovel. Kinda disturbed me at the time.Hmmmm.....sounds like the beginning of a country song.
To: HairOfTheDog
I woulda followed her.I was worried she wouldn't want any witnesses.
To: HairOfTheDog
You should see how I scratch when you try to feed me cat medicine...
To: Corin Stormhands
I will wrap you up tight in a towel so you can't scratch me.
To: Corin Stormhands; HairOfTheDog
No, I'm all squeaky. I tried to sing "Happy Birthday". Started out singing a very low alto, by the end it was a very flat soprano...

Hmmmm.....sounds like the beginning of a country song. When I was a social worker, I swore I was going to write a country song based on what a client said to me. I was visiting him in the hospital after his wife stabbed him (of couse they later got back together)...
He said, "You stabbed me in the back. Why didn't you just break my heart?"
To: Corin Stormhands
How sweet.
To: HairOfTheDog
You know, even after a day like today, there's nothing I can really say to that...
To: Corin Stormhands
Nope. Got some? No, but there's some Clavamox that the cat would love for you to take off her paws.
To: Corin Stormhands; Overtaxed
He said, "You stabbed me in the back. Why didn't you just break my heart?"Yup, that's a country song all right.
To: JenB
Want some Clavamox?
To: All
Did anyone get into this site today? - I have been trying to get there and find out what this news is, but the site is down. It is makin' me crazy.

This time the folks from DarkHorizons.com have some information about the running time for The Return of the King as well as some information on the Battle of the Pelennor Fields and the stand at the Black Gate! Minor Spoilers! [More]
To: HairOfTheDog
What will that do? Will it kill me more rapidly?

Can't hurt!

I couldn't get to their site but I got this from
warofthering.net:
LOTR: The Return of the King: 'Starjay' has an update on the third film, its reshoots and some FX difficulties: "ROTK is suppose to run in the 3.5-4 hour range, P.J. can use as much time as he needs to finish the story. Most of the actors will be returning to New Zealand for reshoots before the ROTK release. There were two other film crews that were filming other than P.J. and Barry Osbourne/Fran Walsh and P.J. was allegedly very disappointed with the direction and the acting. All of these scenes will be reshot, and the director has a lot of work to do before the release.
I was told that the battle scenes for ROTK would be much more difficult this time, as opposed to Helm's Deep. HD was easy due to the darkness and the rain, it hides a lot of sins. The Battle of Pelannor Fields and the stand at the Black Gate won't be in the dark although it's not completely daylight either".
