My creative writing teacher had to make an unexpected trip to Orlando today, so without any time to plan for a sub she went ahead and let us watch a movie. Three cheers for watching LotR in school! I actually wasn't paying attention to the first fifteen minutes of it because I needed to finish some math (I hate having homework, blah). After that, though, I enjoyed the film more or less uninterrupted. There were a bunch of people who were being rather critical of the film: "That rock looks so FAKE!" "Those trolls make weird noises!" "What is that, his security blanket? [referring to the Lorien cloaks]" "Gandalf is lame!" Um, yeah. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, and katwm80, I got your letter yesterday. This is going to turn into the bush incident. Maybe it already has... I still have to think about what to do next.

People like to make fun of movies that everyone likes... And what noises do they THINK trolls make, anyway? <.< >.>

Well, all of the trolls I know feel severly misrepresent by director Peter Jackson's portrayal of them in "The Lord of the Rings" film trilogy. And I quote: "What sort of troll says, 'Grryyyyunnnah?' That is almost as archaic as 'Runnnargh!' If he was hip with the lingo, he would have used a few more 'Brundddraaanuuu's."

Yeah. Right.

People are dorks.

Sometimes it is fun to make fun of movies, but you can only do it at the appropriate times. The parts of TTT, for example, that I feel okay making fun of... Merry's "How can that be your decision?!" (the world's greatest face ever!), Gimli's, "Toss me!" Legolas's, "You look terrible!" etc. etc.
