erm... Godzilla? Lots of good points there, but you have overlooked one thing...WE ARE OBSESSIVE!!! 😄
We will go and see RotK again and again and again and again... whether we have the DVD or not!
Well, I guess I'm a little excessive when it comes to a certain character not being in the theatrical version of ROTK. I'll let you guess who it is and he's not the great eye but pretty close to it.

I for one do not think it funny, by any means. It just sounded like something my father would have said to me. However I do agree with you on that subject, unfortunately it can't be stopped. It's human nature for all of us to find a way of attainings things that is in someway against the establishment whether for good or ill.
Well, I am 31, so I guess I'm kind of close to your dad's age by perhaps a ten year span perhaps? Why, when I was 4, Star Wars: A New Hope had been released in the theaters, of which I vaguely remember seeing it. I guess I love the LOTR Trilogy and I want it to succeed financially because it is kind of like the Star Wars Trilogy of this generation. I just picture all those little kiddies clutching their talking Dark Lord Sauron figures like I used to clutch my Darth Vader figure....

Well, I'm almost quite certain MOS is a lock for the EE, but I heard something a little disturbing....

I heard from set reports, etc, that Aragorn slays the Mouth of Sauron. I have to admit that made me leary because it would totally betray Gandalf's whole controling another's destiny speech in Moria. While yes, MOS is evil, it's not up to Aragorn to slay him just because he was being snarky. Of course my other thought was that MOS struck out at Aragorn, which considering MOS' personality would be most unlike him because he uses words as a weapon, not swords. Of course I did hear people swear up and down that Aragorn faces Sauron at the Morannon. But then again people might be mistaking MOS for Sauron or Sauron is speaking through MOS and appears before Aragorn. Just think of it as an illusion, kind of like the illusion Luke saw of Darth Vader of you will. I'd buy Aragorn slaying MOS more if that be the case.
Godzilla...I too am 31 and vaguely remember going to see the original release of Star Wars - A New Hope when I was taken to see it with my parents. When I was old enough and had the means, I purchased the trilogy on VHS. When the series was re-released in the theatres, I was first in line and went to see it multiple times, for there is something about seeing it on the big screen rather than one's TV at home. Even when they released the Extended/Digitally Remastered versions, I picked up a copy of that as well. I have three different copies of Star Wars ( 4,5, and 6 ) and went to see it in the theatre multiple times as well.
The Studios make their money on the movie lovers such as us in this forum. The ones that stand in line to get tickets on opening day, and then see it over and over again. The ones that go to the stores and buy the movies when they are released, and then go out and re-buy the same movie just so we can see 30 seconds of film that was not in the theatre.
Piracy is a crime, and it does hurt the film industry when people download their films without paying the price of a ticket...but choose your arguements wisely. Everyone here has in fact stated that they have paid more than once for the viewing of ROTK to the studio.

I agree with pip-foot. I would VERY much like the link to that site!!! 😄
And Godzilla, it wouldn't even matter if we downloaded it because most of us have seen, and are planning to see plenty more times, ROTK in theaters. I, myself, have seen it only five times. Yes, I said ONLY. I'm planning to go tomorrow, too, to an IMAX theater 😛 Whoop! Even if I DID actually get the link to the site (*cough merryandpipsgig cough*), I'd still go see it in cinemas at least three more times...probably more though.

I mean the longer you wait for the DVD the better it is when you watch it
I have to agree. I put myself on forced LOTR fasts so that I have the energy to sit through watching all the movies one after the other. Too much of watching them in succession and you can get pretty burned out.
