I like The Return of The King one. Im glad that Aragorn saw that he was to be the rightful king and that he did take the throne. It had good scenes and it kept my interest more than the others. It was more exciting and more things were going on to help pull everything together.

Yeah RotK is the best book for LotR series, but I think the Sillmarillon is the best book in the world. It's my bible stick out tongue

Nazgul lord
ahhh yes whole heartedly agree the silmarilion is a great peice of writing but i like ROTK the most in the lotr series because of the action and mainly because of the scouring of the shire.

This would be "The Fellowship of the Ring" and as you know me as I am the reason you should already know, ok, it's because Lurtz lived in this part, I admit the other two are good too, especially because of the Nazghul (Ringwrath?)... But the ending is not what I hoped of it, I hoped to see a battle with Sauron and Saroman at the end, but this never happened...

Favourite Movie - ROTK: simply because it was the climax, the battles and the decisions having to be taken were awesome.

Favourite Book - Two Towers: Meh, I just addapted more to this book. )plus its alot shorter than the other ones stick out tongue )

*stands up gasped and begins to clap*, shadowy, you are my hero. You are worthy of stepping foot onto my home land anytime you want.

That is probably the greatest post I have ever read....ever.

OMG it was just so....I am going to read it again.

The audience you were with must have been a great atmosphere to be in, no worries that some assholes in the back row throwing popcorn at you and laughing at you when you gasp or anything. These "should" have been the die hard fans seeing the movie and would have nothing to spoil it. You would of loved to of watch the ROTK with me first time I saw it, I was at the front row and as soon as the eagles swooped in I actually got off my seat and shouted "yesss!!!". My friend was well embarassed but I got a laugh out of the crowd.

The first time a movie has made me go in tingles up and down my arm and spine was the ride of the rohhirm now. Damn that was sooo beautiful. The camera just angling from the whole riders was justsheer class.

Discos - again, thank you SB,

shadowy_blue
Thanks, Discos. happy

I just want to add that I wrote that thing some time after I saw RoTK for the first time..LOL..stick out tongue That's why my post kinda said that the EE is coming out on November (it's obvious that November is over and we all know that the EE is coming out December..LOL) stick out tongue I just decided to type it up and post it right now 'coz I think it's appropriate for this thread. big grin

And...I lied when I said that I never cry at movies. shifty

So what do u think of the fact that they deleted the battle-scene between Sauron and Saroman?

shadowy_blue
Sauron and Saruman never had a battle scene in the book. smile

Youre... youre simply a genius touched
Reading your posts is as moving as reading Lotr itself .. both has the strange ability to make one laugh while half-crying at the same time huh

hysterical

For Books I liked the Two Towers the Best, for Movies I liked the Return of th King.

Elessar_Strider
yes that is my faveorite too

Suzuka
I love your posts <3

I like FoTR best, for lots of reasons that I shant ramble about ^^

I remember watching FoTR with my babysitter (hey, I was young at the time) once and the sound went out during the credits, so I burst out singing the song. I got some laughs from the crowd and a glare from my babysitter, but it was uber fun.

During RoTK, I was sitting inbetween my two guy friends, and at the end they turn me and go "whoa, you're crying?" I simply glared and tried to say "I have been for the last 30 mins"

So, book wise I always liked RoTK better because it's the end and that's when the climax is and everything is rapped up. Movie wise, I think FoTR was more to the book and while people always disagree with me and bleh bleh...that's my opinion ^^v
