Post by: GmanJoe on December 11, 2002, 07:57:39 AM: He\'s a lucky Hobbit, I tell ya! The most anticipated movie of the year!

Oh well....hope his reviews are positive. Although.....

Is it the 18th for a general release everywhere else in the world too.

Post by: GmanJoe on December 11, 2002, 08:03:17 AM: Yes, the 18th for the rest of us saps. ;) How in the world did you manage to acquire the tickets? You work in the cinema like Samwise or have a relative in the theatre?

Post by: Green Meanie on December 11, 2002, 08:07:55 AM: We tried to book online four days ago but the service was down, I suppose most people couldn\'t be bothered to call them!!

Oh well,..........their loss our lucky gain (about the only time I\'ve ever been pleased with a website being down).

Post by: square_marker on December 11, 2002, 02:11:55 PM: just got mine today, and im on the last chapter of Return of the King. Cant wait for this movie though..... Helms Deep should rock

Post by: Samwise on December 12, 2002, 04:16:13 AM: And Helm\'s Deep DOES rock. :D

BTW, Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn is casting genius (even if he came in very late on the project). And he\'s Danish! At least ½ Danish. :p

Please take your ghey flamebait elsewhere.

Post by: EThuggV2 on December 12, 2002, 05:09:13 AM: Flamebait? I was not flamebaiting anyone, and if you took it that way, you are the one with the problem.

Post by: Samwise on December 12, 2002, 05:12:15 AM: Listen up, you\'re only here because of the good will of certain people. That good will might disappear. Personally I just ignore most of the things you say for kicks, but who knows, some day it might be enough.

Post by: EThuggV2 on December 12, 2002, 05:14:21 AM: What the **** is your problem? I didn\'t say anything!! You obviously are the one looking for a problem, nothing I posted was bad.

Post by: Samwise on December 12, 2002, 05:20:18 AM: Let me refresh your memory. The thread was about someone (in this case me) watching The Two Towers before the official premiere. Then you say:

"You can get it on DVD for $1 in parts of China..."

1) I don\'t think that\'s true (for many reasons)
2) That would be piracy

"big deal..." - part of the reason I said "flamebait". As you have said in other threads most of the things you say are for your own amusement. In this case I just don\'t care for such a statement, but to each his own.

2- Yes it would, but the point was seeing it early is no big deal, since people on the internet and anyone in China pretty much can as well.

I\'m sorry if my \'big deal\' statment made you feel less special, but I didn\'t state anything that wasn\'t true, or attack you in any personal way, YOU chose to take this as something personal. For the record, it wasn\'t personal, and I\'m sorry if it came off personal, but I\'m not sorry I posted it.

Don\'t worry, you didn\'t. I mean, it\'s not like I was the only one in the theater - some 200 other people saw it too. Still, I\'d rather watch the final cut of such an epic movie in a new THX-certified theater on a huge screen than on a 17" monitor; or a butched up VHS copy on DVD for that matter. But to each his own.

No I didn\'t take it personally. Very few people on this board can have that effect on me. You\'re not one of them. I just didn\'t care much for your post.

Post by: EThuggV2 on December 13, 2002, 09:36:53 AM: I\'ll watch the real DVD... I was just saying people saw it. I\'m sorry.
