Kinda. Basically the vertical Snowpiercer, and in some cases even more disgusting with food and necrotic flesh.
I had popcorn at the start, but then when the old man started stuffing himself disgustingly I put it away, so nope not eating during a movie like this.
I was gonna cut the power to the house at 12:00AM as family and friends gathered around the 36" RCA ready to roll in the new millennium. It would have been hilarious to watch everyone freak out that the Y2K bug was actually going to be a thing.
However, I completely forgot.. and this was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Darn shame!
Fantastic episode, and superb finale. I’m definitely going back to rewatch every single special for sure, I really loved the Polar Special.
I was always hoping the boys would head out to Antarctica, but the dangers would just be too extreme, nevermind the cold or the ice, the hidden crevasse would be the ultimate threat.
I love the humming sound that plays when the ring hits the magma and then it slowly dissolves. If the ring had just plopped into the magma with a tiny little ‘ploop’ splash it would have been pretty bad for film.
That was terrible, and it only gets worse each time I rewatch this trilogy.
Sauron has yet to reveal his deadliest servant, yet Angmar was present in all three films, and there were many witnesses each time, did he even kill a single person other than the poor Frey Gatekeeper at Bree, those Gondorian soldiers on the wall of Minas Tirith, and poor King Theoden?
Then when the Riders of Rohan show up in this film, Angmar disappears never to be seen again until well after Rohan plowed over a hundred thousand Orcs, then he has a terrible battle scene with Eowyn, gets stabbed by Merry and just stands there on his knees while she drives a sword into his face, good grief.
Immediately thought that in yesterday’s rewatch, why on earth did Sméagol sound like Gollum five hundred years before the War of the Ring….
250,000 Orcs killed if you count the Green Soapy Cleansing Power of the Army of the Dead, definitely the most onscreen and offscreen deaths in any film save for perhaps when Luke blows up the Death Star, instantly killing 750,000 Imperial officers or Tarkin blows up Alderaan, annihilating millions in a flash.
Yeah I was pretty frustrated at the theater back in 2003 ROTK opening night, this stuff was supposed to be in the film, it made zero sense to omit it. As well as the Scouring of the Shire but wow that would have been depressing after the Green Soapy Cleansing Power army of the Dead cleaned up the Pelennor. (Doesn’t happen in the book)
2000 Men of Gondor.
6000 Riders of Rohan.
1 Green Soapy Cleansing Power Army of the Dead
Vs.
250,000 Orcs
9 Flying Nazgûl
20 Oliphaunts
500 Haradrim riding the Oliphaunts
1000 (Unseen — Soldiers from Rhun, Khand, Easterling, Southron armies)
If they made these films now, it would be even worse than Rings of Power and even farther away from the Legendarium.
Right now my only issue with Jackson’s films are the green soapy cleansing Army of the Dead that wipes up Pelennor Fields, when they did no such thing in the book—it was the southern men of Gondor that reinforced Minas Tirith and the Pelennor.
Admitted to fishing in the bay.
Never said that, I meant admitted to fishing in the bay.
Half of the magic of Jackson's trilogy was the epic music soundtrack, which was done perfectly. This TV series is missing a good soundtrack, nevermind an epic soundtrack and that hurts the show.
Looks fine here, check your screen. New season is plenty bright and everything is clearly visible as well.
Obviously the camera angles during shoots make it so you can’t see the actual ear canal, but it is there—the actors and actresses had to hear during shooting too.
Agreed. I made the mistake of watching Twisters after this and it was so boring in comparison.
Indeed, it’s possible but I don’t know for sure. There’s still the time gap between Alien Covenant and Alien that needs addressing, David’s story is most certainly not concluded yet.
Not to mention Russia, Iran, and Turkey are all best friends, exactly as stated in the Ezekiel 38 prophecy.
Not bad at all, I enjoy the pacing and intensity of Breaking Bad more, as BCS is a much slower burn. Also, I did not like the black & white final third of the last season.
