I did see clips during the pod race that i've never seen before.

I love how TNT is countering the prequel trilogy with the Lord of the Rings Trilogy for the weekend.

i'll be watching lotr then.

LTOR is always on like every 3 weeks so I'll be watching sw.

Oh oh.... LOTR vs. SW?

StarWars is the winner:

Spike TV also was successful in drawing viewers away from TNT's telecast of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, which aired head-to-head Friday-Sunday nights. The three Star Wars films on Spike averaged 3,462,000 total viewers compared to 2,698,000 for Lord of the Rings on TNT. Spike TV was #1 in cable for total viewers, M18-34 (485,000), M18-49 (1,132,000), and P18-49 (1,792,000) for primetime April 4-6 with the Star Wars telecasts. In fact, the network only trailed CBS (NCAA Final Four) in all of television during the weekend in drawing M18-49 and M18-34.

"Even the trees walked in that movie...!"

I always thought that bit was somewhat biased. Oh, yeah. It was.

hehehehe

well it all comes down to a choice:

walking or whining

Actually, in LOTR there was walking and whining.

touche

Absolutely. While Frodo and co win in terms of constant-output of whinging and moaning, no one winges with the unbridled passion and unreserved power of the Skywalkers in short bursts.

A tough stand off, that one.

But then there's Toshi Station.

pillow pant lol

"Ooooooooooh....CAKE!!!!"
Love the new sig/avvy..!!!
Ko-Ko would've wanted them that way.....


Of course Queeqster, the infamous power converters rant is a big argument settler in isolation, but when you consider that Luke had shut up with his whining by the opening of "Return of the Jedi", whereas Frodo is shown to be STILL whinging and moaning long after the destruction of his ring in "Return of the King", the outcome looks less certain on the whinge front, the more I think about it.

I guess we have to give whinging to the Skywalkers for Torshe, but only by half-a-length.

I have to be careful though 'im heading into a very dangerous zone'

Not enough smoothness in either trilogy, although through deleted scenes we learn that luke had balls the size of small moons and needed to get his 3 way freak on at torshe and played his aunt and uncle which is kinda dark sided. (fan boy cry)

But it's true: Luke stops whining, Anakin doesn't and neither does Frodo.

Then you have to look at Anakin, the perpetually crowned king of pissing and moaning.

Indeed.

That was unexpected pimping, it's true.
It might have been that frustration and the constant sun that made him want to do rude things to his sister.

But Anakin's screen-whinge-time was 6hrs+, whereas Frodo's was 12 hrs+ in special edition form.

So can we rightly compare whole halfday of constant, unabashed, unreserved, unimpeded, unrestricted twatty jaw-flapping from Frodo...?

Initially I thought the Skywalkers'd be able to walk away with this one, but now Im not so convinced.

That is life.

Owen and Beru... BOTH are children of Shmi and Clieg.

They had sex regulary and soon they had to send their small children away... This happened year after year... Older children became sand people. Younger ones are jawas.

There is something about the Skywalkers whining. Anakin did it, Luke did it, and even Cade does it

No EU!

Makes sense. Bet they made a lot of deformed children.

Haha, TNT loses then.

Star Wars rips Lord of the Rings a new one.

Prove it.

With a theorem?

For instance.

Well, I posted the ratings for the weekend, in which Starwars beat LOTR handily... if that's what you mean.

I don't know if the poster meant that TNT looses on ratings because people prefer Starwars to LOTR (likely) or that they loose because Starwars is a better film series than LOTR.

Of course, I'd say he's right on both counts.

Looks like Lord of the Rings spanks the Prequels by the ratings on IMDb.

But Star Wars has more viewers on television? Maybe because Star Wars is rarely ever on regular cable networks.

I have never watched a LOTR movie in full yet. Just doesn't look like my thing...besides, there is only Return of the and it is of the Jedi, Hahaha.

ill have you know that return of the king was thought up long before george lucas had the idea on a trip to make a magical sci fi universe....

Like "Return of.." is such a creative title. I think there prolly already was one prior to the forced LOTR breakup into three novels.

Doubt it.

MOvies, just a pick:

The Return of Draw Egan (1916)
The Return of Monte Cristo (1946)
Return of a Stranger (1937)
The Return of Becky (1912)
The Return of Captain John (1912)
The Return of Carol Deane (1938)
The Return of Clara Deane (1935)
Return of Company 'D' (1911)
The Return of Crime (1913)


And many many more...

dem, forget it.

It is almost like having The in the title. Star Wars was almost called The Star Wars.

lol

hmm. we still would have reverted to calling it star wars. for ease and the like.

TSW... hmmm.
