In 23 days time....

[Ilmarë]

... this Forum could be very quiet indeed!!! I for one plan to be ensconced in front of a dvd player watching FOTR!!!!!

:elfqueen:

[A! Elbereth]

*Rubbing her hands together, A! Elbereth walks into Hollywood Video to hear the quiet meoldies of the radio. She looks around and spys the word, "Lord" on a dvd. The rest could not be seen because of the brochures covering her view. A! Elbereth takes a few steps and then quickly starts to power walk towards the dvd. As she draws closer the word "Rings" appears, as her paces quicken. She reaches the dvd and slowly lifts it up. It was beautifully wrapped in plastic, shining brightly from the dim store lights. She could see brave faces on the cover and began squealing with joy. Running toward the counter, tripping a few times, she grabs out her $20 bill, along with a few $1 bills. She checks out and races to her car and drives home with anticipation.*


*A! Elbereth runs out of the car and slams the door, loud enough for it to echo throughout the neighborhood. She runs inside, rips off the plastic and carefully opens it up to find a disc. She puts it into the dvd player and slowly sits in her seat as the words, "The Lord of the Rings" appears in fiery letters and then switches to the main menu. The play button is pressed.....*

I read about the Firey letters and main menu... sounds cool. But this is exactly what will happen 23 days from now...

[Nessa]

Twenty three days seems terribly long....
There's no telling how often I'm going to watch it! ;)

Unfortunately I don't own a DVD player, so its just the video for me. Oh Well.

[Catz]

well....ive already seen it.......lots......of times (in the theatre), but yeah, i imagine i'll be glued to my DVD too.....isnt it funny how 23 days doesnt seem that much shorter than the nine months or so we had ahead of us after the theatre release of FOTR? or at least it doesnt to me.....but then im strange:naughty: lol
:catz:

[Nessa]

Ah yes, many people saw it lots of times in the theatre. Not me. Twice. No kidding. Two times. And the last was in February! I saw it twice again in a hotel last month, that makes four. So I'm really having withdrawl pains....:(

[A! Elbereth]

Yes... my withdrawal pains just shot up a few notches last week. I'm hoping that my Ibuprofien comes in the mail soon lol lol... I saw it 6 times... I wanted to see it 10 but i ran out of money. mecry

[Fatty]

Well I must say I cannot wait to get my hands on the real DVD, infact I will have to buy a player so I can watch it on tv rather than PC.

Needless to say I think that we will be running some competitions in this respect, especailly in November for the collectors edition...................

Just a note actually. remember folks don't check the news in the forum for updates, it is only to talk about news. All updates etc go on the sites main page. Reason being we are a website with a forum, not a forum with a website :-)

Anyway enough of my hijacking topics, back to the DVD.........................

[Tinuviel]

*moves over to Nessa's corner* I don't have a DVD player either... hmmph:(

But I'm bugging the husband to get one in time for the November release of the DVD, all chockful with the extra 30 mins of footage.....WHEEEEE

I've watched FoTR 10 times at the cinema, and I still miss it.

I'm planning to time my re-read of TTT , a chapter a day, leading up to the Dec 18 release..... :p

Ok, off to post something On Topic for a change! ;)

[Pil]

I've seen FOTR MAAAAAANY times...but that is thanx to pirates :nono: :angel: lol

I saw it six in the cinema though... :hooray: :)

Bonos-girl and i will be on holiday with my family in Brittany in France when it is released, but we come back two or three days afterwards. I intend to go to WHSmith's before even getting back home! There's no guessing what we will be doing while our photos are developed! :p

P.S. Bonos-girl is on a french exchange at the moment so that's why she isn't around! :batty: :evil:

[A! Elbereth]

Well altogether I saw FOTR 17 times because I downloaded it from KAZAA..... Watch it once every 1-2 weeks hehe lol:naughty:

[Algamesh]

Hold on to your KAZAA copies though. It's the only place you'll be able to see some of the things that will be 'corrected' in the DVD release. That automobile chugging along in the Shire is a HOOT!

roflmao

[Sindarin]

I'll be watching it on DVD myself. :)

[Tinuviel]

...ah, I don't mean to pontificate, but the viewing experience is so different when you watch the movie at a cinema. You get the proper Dolby surround sound and the stunning visuals are get their proper due on the wide screen....

*Tin looks at what she just wrote and realise she DID pontificate*

:p ack, well blame in on the fact that I actually work on movies for a living!

Anyway, I'll definitely get the DVD because of the proper transfer from the film.

And by the way, I do have the Kazaa copies also :naughty: for those moments when I want to get swept away by the Mines of Moria sequence. Loved the part when Gandalf mumbles "perhaps I can risk a little more light" and then it brighten to reveal the entire place, complete with majestic, sweeping music.....what a goose pimply moment..... :grin:

[Pil]

That's one of my fav bits in the whole moria sequence...and the relevant part of the soundtrack. :p Sam - "Well that's an eyeopener and no mistake...!" Aw! :)

I got a DVD player/tv combo for my birthday! Go parents! Looking forward to cing it at home! :hooray: :dragon:

[Catz]

ahhh yes ladies....a wonderful moment in the movie...and im salivating over the DVD release....lol so what if i dont eat for a week....ill have my DVD....and thats all that matters:rolleyes: ;) roflmao roflmao
:catz:

[Pil]

My parents are worried about me faking illness to watch it... :sneezy: lol roflmao AS IF! :wicked: :dragon:

[HobbitFriend]

I'm trying to talk my parents into getting a DVD player for Christmas (i couldn't get any earlier - darn!) and then i have to get FotR on DVD... gotta have the best of LotR!

[A! Elbereth]

We have many DVD players that we dont need....

[HobbitFriend]

haha wanna give me one! lol

[Nessa]

Elbereth! Listen to you! "Plenty of extra DVD players" when some of us haven't got one. ;)

Maybe I'll get one for christmas, more likely my brother will get a Playstation 2 and it will be good enough...

Right now I'm concentrating on getting the VCR on the big screen TV fixed before August...

[Catz]

sounds like a plan to me Nessa;) lol
Jeez some of you younglings lol lol.......itd be nice to have someone else buy things like DVDs....*sighs* but us older folk have to pay for our own toys:naughty: lol lol
:catz:

[Fatty]

Yes it should be good, though please don't discuss pirate versions of the DVD on the forum. We all know you can download them etc, however, we need to stay the right side of the law and don't what to be seen promoting this kind of thing.

Thanks

Fatty

Personally I am desperate fro my bookends :-)

[Polly Sandybanks]

I spent my non-existent (sp?) money on a DVD-player last week. It wasn't that expensive, so I figured I could afford it, even though I already owe people money. I'd better get a job now. Especially since I've already ordered my copy of the LOTR DVD. I'm supposed to get it in my mail box on August 6th. :) Lovely!

[Pil]

THAT will be a FINE sight! :thumbs: :p

[Catz]

oh man....:grin: you sound like me Polly....still, its good to know we have our priorities straight......lol i went out and bought an extra TV to hook my DVD up to so i wasnt getting interference from the VCR....need the best picture quality, after all....;) lol
:catz:

[Fatty]

LOL Catz! You are a star.....an extra tv hehe.

[Catz]

yeah.....*grins wryly*...you should see the state of my room.....im sharing a house so ive got all my stuff in there...so.....thats a VCR and TV, a DVD and TV, a computer, a scannner and printer...and all my videos and books....cant move!!!(and cant fit the audio system in either lol )
cant wait for this DVD to be out tho....i think i'll happily lock myself away for a couple of days, just to wallow in it;) :cool:
a slightly cramped :catz:

[Pil]

I've just found out that me and bonos-girl will be getting back from france ON THE DAY it comes out! WOO HOO! :hooray:

[A! Elbereth]

I will be watching FOTR on my TV downstairs, for the TV is quite large and its brand new! Our old TV has the worst color you could see... I do believe that tv is older than me! hahalol I dont suspect I'll be gettin FOTR ON august 6th... but maybe the 7th-10th becuase I'm sure if I tried they will be sold out until they restock.....

[Pil]

Ok...

a) camp outside the shop until it opens and be the first to MAKE YOUR PURCHASE!

OR...

B) PRE-ORDER! :thumbs: Guaranteed a purchase! :wiggle:

[A! Elbereth]

I only wish I could do either of those - but I never have had the chance to preorder - and I cant off the internet becuase I just dont trust people with my credit card (I have a credit card just for little things)

I bet the nespaper is going to have an article about all the LOTR fans waiting outside the department and vidoe stores... I live in a small town so any news is good news. I mean... the had Mock Drowning news on the front page! Give me a break! Who cares about those lifeguards! lollol

sorry went a little off of the subject

[Pil]

Seriously? No chance to pre-order? like, EVERY respectable shop in my are is doing a pre-ordering service! :elfeek: :o

[A! Elbereth]

I'm saying I never had the time, since I can't drive yet (unfortunately), I never got to it mecry

[Nessa]

Don't feel bad, I didn't pre-order either. My father said it was silly to....we'll see how silly it might have been when he's standing in line the morning it comes out...;)

They had this deal at Blockbuster (American video rental place) where you bought a 10-week rental card for 25$ and got a copy free.....couldn't convince the parents about that either.

[A! Elbereth]

Yeah my mom said ,"They will have plenty of copies! I'm sure they'll be enough for everyone!"

Shhhyyeah! (Minnesotan 'yeah right!') All the copies will be sold out they always are with the big hits until a week later! Argh! How will I wait... oh dear

[Pil]

I thought u already had it...*pil keeping a look out for police* :nono: lol

Plus....C'MON....blockbuster's a universal thing...i rent everything from blockbuster! veryhappy

[A! Elbereth]

We have a blockbuster, but its 7 miles away.... yuck!pfbbt

[Nessa]

I'm not to worried, I'll wait in line for hours if I must! The Blockbuster employees where Lotr pins on there shirts, one lady had a simply beautiful one with Frodo on it....she told me she'd give it to me after the movie came out!!!:grin: Another guy had one of Sam, but the man frightened me so I dared not ask.

[A! Elbereth]

LMAO! lol lol roflmao

[Pil]

Cool Nessa! Go get that one of Sam! :battle: lol :p

[Aragorn Isildur]

My copy's been on order since you could do it! :) Im camping outside the shop so i can be the first to get it.

Aragorn:king:

[Pil]

I'm not allowed to...anyway...the shops are threatening to call in the police! :elfeek: :o lol

[Ronin]

I shall gracefully walk into the store and pick up a copy...the crowd shall part, making way for me....like a wave succumbing to the awesome bow of a distinguished cutter ship.

well...thats what i'm hoping for at any rate ;) lol

[A! Elbereth]

lol nice details! lol lol

[Catz]

even tho the truth is he'll probably shoulder barge the first one that gets in his way, and then tread on peoples toes with his stilletoes until they get out of his way...:naughty: :p ;) roflmao roflmao lol tho....*catz grins and lowers her voice*:shhh: ...he does have an awsome bow:elfeek:;) lol .....still....if it works, what the heck....:grin: :cool:
:catz: :wicked:

[Pil]

Awsome bow? :huh: Stilletos...? :elfeek: :o

[Catz]

it would take far to long to explain Pil....just take my word for it lol lol......either that or read the Arwen v Galadriel Deathmatch...*catz frowns for a moment*...now were the heels mentioned in there, or just the tutu....hmmmmm......;) :angel: lol *scampers off to fan fic to check*
oh and the bow was Ronins choice of term, btw...lol
:catz:

Soz, I know you posted this ages ago, but I had to say. When I went to see it the 2nd time, at a proper multiplex, Dolby sound, widescreen, possible smellyvision cinema something HILARIOUS happened.
When Frodo woke up in Rivendell, you hear Sam's voice call out 'Frodo!' from the right side of the screen, correct? Well, thanx to the wonders of Dolby sound, the cry came from somewhere at the back right corner of the cinema. The whole cinema audience, and I mean the ENTIRE room full of people, turned around to where the sound came from! lol roflmao lol
Also, a few people turned around when the Balrog's footsteps thudded down the centre aisle!

At midnight tonight, GMT, my video will be here in exactly 9 days, maybe I'll start a countdown on my calender ... :rolleyes:

[Kwijibo]

Sorry, something weird happened ... :mmmm:

[A! Elbereth]

hahahaha Thats weird that they all looked to see what was there. lol Wouldnt they know that it was surround sound and that this sorta thing happens?

[Pil]

lol lol HOW AMUSING!!!! roflmao

[Algamesh]

I've got my surround system all set up at home ... I can't wait to pop FOTR in the DVD player and relive the sounds the way they are supposed to be.

Actually, I'm gonna do a trial run today. I bought "Saving Private Ryan" last night and I play to watch it this afternoon. I remember watching it in the cinema and hearing the bullets buzz over my head. WOW!

[A! Elbereth]

Sounds like you guys all have better theartres than me.... OUr town built 2 more brand new theartres that put the others out of business :o They are really nice but yours sound better with the surround sound. Or maybe I just go to movies too much so I'm used to it? :huh:

[HobbitFriend]

lol Kwijibo, that's funny lol
...reminds me of the time i went to see "The Others" with my friend and at this one part, someone opens a door and when they did the entire audience screamed and then burst out laughing cuz there was nothing there! roflmao

[A! Elbereth]

haha roflmao

[Ilmarë]

Guys......

Only 8 days to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:elfqueen:

[Nessa]

EIGHT? Oh my.......

To think that in only eight days I will be watching it.... repeatedly......

Oh my. :wiggle:

[A! Elbereth]

Wooohooo lets celebrate, and on the 6th we will have a HUGE PARTAY!

:hooray::whoohoo: :wiggle: :whoohoo: :wiggle: entdraught entdraught:wiggle: :whoohoo: :wiggle: :whoohoo: :hooray:

[Nessa]

I'll be to busy watching it to party....;)

[HobbitFriend]

YAY! :whoohoo: can't wait! :wiggle:

[HobbitFriend]

The countdown is on!

One week from today (7 days) The Fellowship of the Ring comes out on video and DVD!

the extended edition DVD of FotR comes out in 105 days on November 12th

and...
There are 140 days until The Two Towers comes to theaters

...just thought i'd inform everyone :grin:

[Tinwë]

I can't wait!!! :) I'm planning to buy both of them ;)

[Nessa]

Me too! (Although it may detract from my car fund slightly....)

I just saw a commercial advertising the DVD release.... some lovely shots and a bunch of actors gushing about how great it is..... actually kind of funny! lol "The ring is so powerful! I don't even think I would want it!" :rolleyes:

[A! Elbereth]

TNT eh? I think I'll turn it on now

[HobbitFriend]

6 days till FotR on video and DVD!

[A! Elbereth]

Man I've been watching for the commercial almost a day now and I havent seen it mecry verymad

[Nessa]

Um, I didn't see it on TNT...

I saw it on *cough* nick at nite *cough*...... :embarras:

I'm not a loser, really! Cheers reruns help me sleep! ;)

Its not a great commercial anyhow, Elbereth. Just a few people paid to talk about how great it is and a few pretty shots....

[A! Elbereth]

Someone else said they saw it on TNT... forgot who and where It was....

I dont want to see the commercial because i think its great (all commercials are uniquely irratating lol) I just love seeing anything about LOTR... even if it inst great!

[Nessa]

I can relate with that Elbereth... lol

Not too long now..... I really need that movie... and that lovely Frodo pin... ;)

[A! Elbereth]

Not fair.... mecry I want a Frodo Pin!

This sucks I dont have anything - no posters - no pictures (besides ones i printed) - no PINS... all i have is the books. My LOTR soundtrack wasnt bought, I downloaded each song and put it on a blank CD, so i dont really own the soundtrack mecry

I really need to go LOTR shopping on the 6th!

[Nessa]

Do you have action figures by any chance? lol My Frodo sits on my dresser, Sting ever ready. :rolleyes: Thats not pathetic, is it?

You want a pin? Go to your nearest Blockbuster and beg the most understanding looking employee (or the one with the Frodo pin if you don't mind odd looks) for theirs. They might give it to you after the movie comes out.....

I was just thinking about a part or two I'm going to be fast-forwarding for maximum movie enjoyment.... I didn't have that leasure in the theater... had to be content with closing my eyes. lol

[A! Elbereth]

I dont have any figures either... I am an incredibaly obsessed fan who only has only the books to satisfy her mecry gets quite lonely without posters and action figures to look at

What would you want to fast-forward!?!? Everything about FOTR is GREAT

[Illuvatar]

Well for those of you wanting a little taste, go check out the news on the main page!! :)

Or just go to the downloads section....hehehe

We have the trailer for the extended DVD available for download NOW!!

Illu :cool:

*sigh* People keep telling me this, but I still have my petty little hang-ups. :rolleyes: I can almost look past them, but fast-forwarding a few seconds here and there will be best for me....

[Loriende_Greenleaf]

I think that making us wait a long time for the movie to come out is just torcher:(. I cant take it! I dont have any money right now so i cant pre-order it myself so i asked my step-dad to and he says we can later!!! HOW long is later exactly? Well i asked him mon. it is now thurs.verymad and I know that when ill actually get it is like a month after it comes out! Bad or what?!?:flamer:

[Catz]

well...if waiting for this one is bad.....waiting for the Nov release (the one i really want to see) is worse still....cos now weve seen that great footage....I WANT IT NOW!!!verymad mecry roflmao roflmao.....before i go totally :batty: :batty:
:catz:

[A! Elbereth]

It is now 3 more days until the dvd is out! I just visited my local hollywood video and got a free magazine that was half about Lord of the Rings! It had great stuff in it - and the cover had FRODO! I heard that they were only in our town. Some local deal or summut.

But behind the counter when i was leaving I saw all the LOTR dvd's and VHS's sitting on the floor and was nearly going to jump behind the counter to grab one, but i ran into the door! haha i really did..... lol:embarras:

The damn gift pack in november is going to be $69.99!!! I want it sooo much, but the only way i can get it is if i get it for christmas, and then i would have to wait another 1.5 months! So i decided just to get the dvd. mecry mecry mecry This sux! verymad

[Catz]

scan it and send it in to the news page then :grin:
Oh dear the things we do....lol ...tho i cant talk, ive done worse...im just not gonna tell anyone, heheh;) :p yep...almost there guys.....racers....start your engines.......
:catz:

[A! Elbereth]

If I had a scanner I would have a picture in the members gallery and a scan of my magazine.. mecry

I was just at Hollywood Video the other night (also got one of those magazine thingys) Did you notice that the staff is also wearing LotR tee-shirts! lol i saw the back of one of them and noticed it said something about August 6 and stuff so i wanted to see if it had anything to do with LotR on the front, so i made my mom buy a movie so i could see what it was! :embarras: i'm a wacko

only 2 more days till the movie/DVD comes out! :hooray:

[Illuvatar]

I got it, I got it!! :hooray:

My son works at a video store and brought it home for us last night!!! :cool:

Lady Arien and I should be posting a reviewod the DVD and features (including hidden ones) later today!!

Two words for now though.....

HAPPY HAPPY!!

:cool:

[A! Elbereth]

You got the magazine too!? Wow didnt know they were passing them our there too. It could have been those small ones they were passing out... got one - o - those too. It has the ring inscription on Frodo's face. But the one I got had a picture thats on The Fellowship of the Ring book. The pictures are actuallt quite simalar!

Oh please do write a little review! I would be fabulous to read!

[Illuvatar]

Ahhh...so sorry....did not mean to confuse......

We got the DVD....We got the DVD....

We watched the DVD.......We watched the DVD!! lol

:cool:

[Lady Galadriel]

Hooray...Tuesday's the day! :hooray: :hooray: :hooray: Ok. I was reading a review of the DVD and take a peek at this...The Last Alliance in the opening of the film is the first time where Howard Shore's score really explodes to all of the channels, and you better hold on to something when Sauron is defeated, as the resulting shockwave through your sub will send your pets running for cover. :elfeek: WOW! I loved that sound effect in the theatres...but won't it be cool to have it in our houses!? YAY! YAY! YAY! here's (http://dvd.ign.com/articles/366/366162p1.html) the review I got that from. I'm ready fro that partay on Tuesday...heh...that rhymes! :cool:

[A! Elbereth]

Wow Wow Wow DARNIT I CANT WAIT! 1.5 days until I GET TO SEE IT! I can't contain my excitement! woohoooooo

[HobbitFriend]

ah lucky you, Illuvatar!

i can't wait till tomorrow! woo hoo! :hooray:
*too excited to sleep!* lol

[Nessa]

Oh dear, its only a matter of hours now! :)

I just got back from a rather wild weekend away from home, so I missed the worst stages of waiting.....

Bless my father, he's promised to take me to Blockbuster at midnight.....

[A! Elbereth]

ya better hope Blockbuster is open 24/7! lol Unless they are really open then...hmmm :huh:

[Nessa]

Unfortunately it doesn't matter how late they're open, because they don't begin to sell them until 10 Am when they open. :(

SIIIIIGGGHHHHHH!!!!

[Black Rider]

they stay open until 1 now i think, which is cool :D

[Nessa]

But Black Rider, dear, they're not selling them until they open tomorrow. Hence the sigh. ;)

Unless......! The particular lady at the particular Blockbuster I called was miffed and eager to spoil a poor geek's night so she came up with the diabolical scheme to prevent me from having The One Film until ten in the morning or later......

....or not. :rolleyes: lol

[A! Elbereth]

OMG!!!!!! IM SO HAPPY! I was watching a movie in my family room and my mom said, are ya ready to go in an hour and a half? and I was like wha? And she said she was taking to me to walmart at midnight! WOHOO! open 24/7 and she's gonna get me the dvd! YAY!

All I can say is, that they BETTER stock them up right when i get there, or I'll my mom might tell me to wait until tomorrow :( mecry

[Black Rider]

ohh but one must not go insulting Blockbuster, which has the whole "guaranteed in stock" thing going on. i wonder how long it will take before they give FOTR that status?

[A! Elbereth]

I just went to WalMart and there were at least a dozen people waiting for it to come out. They brought them out and they nearly fought over it, even though therewas plenty for everyone hehe.... Apparently, we get a free poster if we buy it between 12:01 - 6:00 am! They didnt have them so now they are going to call us when they come in!

Bye gonna watch it NOW! until 5:00 am most likely hehehe

[Nessa]

Elbereth you are one lucky wench. lol (kidding)

It is an hour before Blockbuster opens, my parents are working, and I cannot drive myself there. I shall wait a bit more. I dreamt about it last night..... odd.....

[HobbitFriend]

ah! i can't wait... i decided to pre-order, so i'm here waiting :wiggle:

[Nessa]

Hmph, I should have pre-ordered, then at least I would know its coming....

Well, llmare, you were right. This board is rather empty today. Everyone sitting around watching their copies.

Just one last siiiiiiiggghhhhh.......

[Black Rider]

free poster, thats sooo cool!

i'm waiting here for the mailman. i really hope it comes today, otherwise i think i'll be so sad i'll have to eat the rest of the chocolate ice cream in the frezer to cheer me up...
i reeeeeeaaaallllyyy hope it gets here today!!!!!!

[HobbitFriend]

okay WHY did i have to pre-order?! :trout: i pre-ordered late which was stupid because they didn't ship it out until YESTERDAY and that means i won't get it till tomorrow! oh well... i'm renting it tonight. :grin: Maybe i can go over my grandmother's house and watch the DVD! I can always say it's just to spend some quality time with her (just kidding - i'm not that mean ;)) :wicked:

[Black Rider]

uugh. i did the same thing. only i did it with buy.com which has free shipping and it was only $18 for the dvd, and even though they shipped it last thursday i still havent gotten it yet. i hope it comes tomorrow. i was kinda hoping for it today, but it didnt come. :( :( :(

and it feels like everyone is watching their copies RIGHT NOW :(

[HobbitFriend]

yah, i just couldn't wait for it!... but luckily my mom rented it for me, but i'm still waiting for my own copy. (VHS) Ah! everything i hear about the DVD sounds so great! i wish i had a DVD player!!! :(
oh well... we're supposed to be getting a DVD player sometime 'round Christmas so i hope to get the extended version DVD when it comes out. But this time i'm going to pre-order WAY in advance. ;)

[Pil]

I actually need to get round to that. I reckon there will be LOADS of people doing that cos they were disappointed with the lack of extras in this release...i was anyway... I mean...what we had was satisfactory...but not thrilling. :huh:

Best extra is orlando bunjee jumping! :loveyou: lol

Didn't u find that all the clips and lines got used...like...ten times each? When Ian is going on about how 'Hobbiton was in three dimentions...and he believed' for the eigth time...i just wanted to throw something at him! The same with Cate Blanchett saying how she has never felt so much passion before in any film she has worked on...aaaarrrggghhh! :flamer: :batty:
