    Lord of the Rings: Is anyone else...

    ...sad that it's over now? Guess Christmas will never be the same again without a new LotR-movie in the theatres!

    Last night, I saw the "Return of the King" for the third time, and it was definitely the last time, because the English version will be cancelled here and I don't want to the see the German version. So it was like saying good bye to all the characters I have learned to love so much during the past two years.

    Now I have to wait for the dvd-release, but that is still so far away. I have also ordered the soundtrack, and I hope it will be delivered today.

    But at the moment, I'm almost feeling a bit lost here...

    "...here, at the end of all things." (Frodo Baggins, who almost broke my heart in the third movie)

    "Here"...raises hand all teary eyed...


    I can't believe it either...Christmas will never be the same again!!!
    But what a grand final it was...I really loved each of the movies, because they captured the emotions of the books so much and I still can't decide which was my favourite book/movie of the three...
    I am looking forward to the DVD release (especially the extended version) and WOW next year Christmas we celebrate the Lord of the Rings again by watching all in a row at home...


    I do hope that Peter Jackson will surprise us with the "Hobbit" soon!!!

    Yes, it was awesome. Even though I have already seen it three times I was still stunned. I even loved the battles, which I usually don't like in movies.

    In the first two movies, Aragorn has always been my favorite character, but this time, I've been very much impressed by Pippin. When he sang for Denethor, it made shivers running down my spine. I also love Frodo very much in third one, and Sam, of course! Sam is such a heartwarming character and he always makes me cry.

    I'm also not sure about my faves. I think of the books, it's the "fellowship" I like best, but I'm just reading them again, now that I've seen all the movies.
    Of the movies, I thought "FotR" would be my fave also, but after I've seen this one, I'm not so sure anymore.

    I'm already looking forward to the extended version and can't wait to see them all in a row!

    Me! When I took my mom to see it I was crying again at the end she leaned over and said, "Are you sad that this is actually the end and there are no more movies?"

    Yes.. yes I am.

    Seeing ROTK for the first time in Toronto with all the other fans.... it is a movie experience that I'll never have again.

    I'm sad too. It HAS become a part of my family's Christmas tradition.

    Great flicks!

    I guess like everyone else, BUYING them on DVD for eachother will be the new tradition. That, and waiting for HP movies.

    Yes! It's sad this is the end Or as Conan O'Brian said, maybe something will happen and they're be another one like 'Dude, wheres my ring?' lol Anyway, our family has gone to see it on x-mas for the last 2 years..so It will be sad next

    I never saw a single Lord of the Rings movie...I honestly don't see the appeal, that just isn't my kind of movie.

    I saw it, it was good but very sad . I know it's just computer animated when the horses die but that made me cry so bad that my friend had to tell me when the parts were over. Merry and Pippen were really funny in that movie. It's to bad that ROTK was the last movie because the movies were REALLY good.

    Pick up the Silmarrilion.

    It's a 'history' of Middle Earth-way before the LOTR...

    That would be a great project for another movie.

    Awww, you guys it's ok. I am a weiner and I already know what happens in the adventures 1-3. 1-7 I believe. I have read the book that has 1-3. The " Return of the King" is really good. I am sure that the movie is good too. I was just a lot more entertained with the book.

    Ok guys I had a chat with Peter the other day (I am just kidding) I wish, hey I am sure they will make the hobbit, be silly not to, but it could be quite some time away, you know the farm where it was filmed are charging 50 dollars for a tour, I think that is somewhat outrageous, its only like 15 mins away from me, but I am not going to pay that much, I guess I am not a real fan, but don't you all think thats a bit over the top.?
